You are correct.

Just looked.

Colchester, Fleetwood, Oldham, Wigan and Sheffield Utd are the 5 clubs who have bigger professional squads than us.

 

Wigan are doing O.K. The others are struggling a lot.

 

Perhaps the managers of these clubs gave contracts to some of last seasons failures?

Page has always tended to go with his 'tried and trusted' even when it hasn't been working.

 

To send a message he could bring the likes of Moore, Hooper, Daniel, Uche and Kelly in.

 

Personally I'd drop Dodds, O'Connor, Birchall for Hooper, Kelly (pushing Foley into the middle) and Moore. At least that gives a bit of threat down the sides and we may as well start to really see what Hoopers got rather than the pitiful 5-10 minute cameos he keeps getting.

 

Instead we'll probably see virtually the same side who completely let the club down last week.

Regarding staying away-Does staying away really help though? If it helps you feel better and less angry then maybe, but it doesn’t benefit the club. Financially you’re not going to make Norman any worse off by not going to get ‘revenge’. He’s a millionaire and your unspent £23 isn’t going to make him upset. We should be going to support the club by turning up. If not then they’ll be no money coming in which will completely turn off any potential investor. But I doubt someone will pay 4 million anyway, so at the moment we’re stuck with Norman, and he’s only going to put in what he gets coming in from now on. So if none of us turn up, then we’re going to be financially poor meaning our player budget will be significantly less and some of it will be on a CEO from next year so we could be relegated and then what? It’ll detract even more and the same will happen meaning we could be relegated again. This will be digging us deeper into a hole. We can’t let this happen so should stick by our club.

Exeter didn't get a rubbish "Reward" like Charlton away. Liverpool at home and on TV.... The players need fining a months wages and a rollicking from hell. Id have them in doing maintenance on the ground 8am-5pm every day....

The club is the most important. Let's support it with good voice tomorrow. I suspect it will need that support during the next year. Not turning up will only make matters worse.

Let me get this clear, you want to bring in Moore and also drop him? Just asking.

[saintvaliant]

Hooper in for Doods up front.

Kelly in for O'Connor with Foley to go central, Kelly on the wing.

Moore in for Birchall.

I think this is a very important game, more important than the cup game, lose and supporters heads will go down

The club is the fans ! Without the fans there is no club! The fans need to stay together and support the club. Staying away is no answer it will ultimately harm the club. We need to get behind the team , also the team need to show some passion and pride after the debical against Exeter reserves ! They owe us big time .

[valeblue]

Well said Bomber , can't see the point of not going , it's not the teams fault the owners a tool!

Totally agree.

I've just re read this and it makes perfect sense so sorry for the earlier sarcastic post. Friday night is wine night - need I say anymore!

 

Apologies SV

I think it's "name the crowd" for today.
