Yes someone else seen it

Not seen Plant make a tackle, probably ever.

He will not make a footballer. He is poor. He has energy and enthusiasm. Nothing else.

Cannot defend, Cannot create, Cannot score goals

He is a footballer. We pay to watch him!

You do like him don't you....a relative maybe?

Just a footballer who is and has been better than I could have dreamed of. And probably you. Same for any professional footballer. As you well know - many more fail than make it. Let alone for nearly 500 games.

Lowe will always be a pub player 👍

That will be a pub player with 447 professional games and captained England at under 20 level. Thats the pub career I wished for when I was playing!

Well said. Best game Smudgers had since Chrimbo

His best part was in the first half when he had ball smashed against his head from about a foot has he stooped to head it and it screamed out for a throw in. My daughter was in hysterics!!! Typified his brave battling performance.

I honestly think everyone thought he’d smashed it over.  Nobody around me could believe it when the roof of the net bulged.  Fantastic celebrations.  That’s what football is all about.

Right behind it. No chance was he missing. Helped that he didn't have time to think. Unlike the first half miss.

Tom Pope is no longer a league 1 striker. He's not scoring regularly for Witton Albion. 

Smith should never have been made captain and I think that's been detrimental to his game. He's not a natural leader. 

For all his legendary status by my quick count off wikipedia he scored 47 goals in League 1 with 12 being the most in one season.

If we don't sign anyone else we'll be in the exact same position as when he started at the end of this season...

Weren't we in League 2?

36 minutes to see if our beloved director of football delivers a striking option , if he does not for me he should resign 

Are we in a better or worse position from when he started?

Forwards signed by comparable League 1 or League 2 clubs:

Burton: Jonathan Leko, Kyle Hudlin, Antwoine Hackford, Odemola Ola-Abebomi, Joe Hugill

Cambridge: Lyle Taylor, Macauley Bonne

Carlisle: Luke Armstrong, Georgie Kelly

Cheltneham: Matty Taylor, Joe Nuttall

Exeter: Mo Eisa, Millenic Alli

Fleetwood: Ronan Coughlan, Tommy Lonergan

Leyton Orient: Khayon Edwards

Lincoln: Joe Taylor

Wigan: Charlie Kelman

Wycombe: Richard Kone, Gideon Kodua, Bez Lubala

 

How did all of these clubs manage to sign forwards, whilst we're crapping it with 40 minutes to go?

I've no doubt we'll bring someone in, but the second January in succession we're down to the wire.

Are any of them any good!

Spot on RZ. Look how well last summer and January went when we waited till the last knockings to "maximise the value available". I wonder what Matty Taylor or Mipo are up too these days. 

Mipo is playing for Maritimo in Portugal.

I agree, but why did Crosby wait till we were 0-3 down before changing it, if he had changed it sooner, before it was too late, we’d have got a point today.Lomax did more than Massey has in the last 3 games, also beginning to think Ripley isn’t as good as he thinks he is, he never moved for the first goal.

No chance with that header. Placed it in

You've completely missed the point: Cambridge were plummeting because they were playing badly and not scoring goals. Harris has completely changed this with 10 goals in four games and just three against - with the same players who are, arguably, a poorer squad than ours. It's been a sea change in style and performance and shows what a change in manager will do. They ain't going back to their old ways, that's for certain.

So their place in your hierarchy of mediocrity is completely misplaced. 

I haven't missed any point. I am just stating where we are at this point compared to other sides.

Er, please leave Cambridge out of this. Since they changed their manager, they have won three and drawn one of their last four games. A totally different team by all accounts with a proper manager in charge. 

We've won 2 and drawn 1 out of our last 3. Just quoting the current league table. You might not like the football but thats where we are. Lots of times on here over the last couple of years there are people saying it is results that count - not performances. Can't pick and choose.

2 wins in 14, class.

I think we're sleepwalking to a very slippery slope.

Or 7 in 21 like Charlton, Bristol, Cambridge and more than any team below us except Wigan!
