Tolaj needs a shot upfront 

You know about as much about football as our manager , congratulations 

Tolaj gets his chance. Im a bit concerned by the lack of pace at the back but its not like we have been solid recently so changes were needed.

He is a young lad DM is not binning him he is managing him and its the right thing to do.

He’s destroying the young lad. Either stick with him around the squad or loan him out. Can’t throw him in for big games, haul him off at half time then not put him in the Matchday squad for the next 5 games. Only to start him then 4-5 weeks later. It’s not helping him a loan would definitely improve his development more than what’s happening now. He’s nowhere near ready for first team football

11 is better but I’m sick of seeing a back 5 

Did you really think he would defer from his usual formation this manager is stubborn and stuck in his ways, he always set us up to sit in and then go for it  later on in the game and it's not good enough the sooner he goes the better

Nonsense.

One thing on which you cannot fault Darren Moore is his care for his players.

By starting him after not making the bench for 5 games, to then haul him off, drop out the squad for another few games then straight back into the starting 11? That’s not how you manage a young lad.

It just feels better in the middle with some grit in there now and Croasdale not having to do the job of two men.

I’m urging DM now Tolaj has an opportunity give him a proper extended run and don’t just change it if it doesn’t click straight away.

He hasn't given Paton a proper run has he?

So I wouldn't build you're hopes up , Gups

No was always going go with his back 5. I just don’t understand why it’s needed at home against weaker sides. Especially when all 3 are very similar and can’t pass the ball. Back 2 of smith and hall for me is plenty good enough and get another attack minded player on

It wasn't a compliment 😆😆

 

First goal is massive today. Our confidence is obviously rock bottom. But if we get it we might just suddenly remember that we were a very solid team for this league not too long ago.
