We will need 11 points to get out of the bottom 4 because of how bad the goal difference is 

I worry about getting a goal just for the chance of 3 points, think some are getting ahead of themselves thinking about 11... 

Our top scorers are Croasdale and Sherif who scored 2 goals for a different team 😄

Pete was the one to announce that Jesse was going to Bromley on loan and now he has said that Mitch is going to Fleetwood on loan.

There wasn't much goalkeeper deception involved vs Exeter.  It was an open goal set up by the defender trying to play around at the back.  Remains his only league goal this season.

Maldon and Tiptree were Maldon and Tiptree.  

And then you're actually bringing in a disallowed goal!!

Paton was only just inside the area, the goal keeper was between the posts just inside the 6 yd box vs Exeter, it wasn't an open goal. The space was to the 'Keepers left and I'd guess that's where the goal keeper expected Paton to shoot to and where Paton shaped to shoot but instead he put it to the goal keepers right, a goal scorers finish. See from 14 secs in the video.

It doesn't matter who the opposition are, there's still a goal keeper to beat.

Disallowed or not, Paton finished it with a goal scorers finish, Paton didn't know he would be, wrongly IMHO, be given offside.

Leedsvaliant is spot on, he never makes a run and never finds or creates the space a striker should do in order get that sniff of a chance.

The Exeter video alone shows the above not to be true.

Don't just watch him, watch the other players.  You can tell a lot from the amount of times he gets bollo king

I don't just watch Paton.

It surprises me that Paton hasn't had more playing time but obviously I don't see the players in training as the coaching staff do.

Agree hes probably not needed now, but does still grate when JB talks of players putting in effort and wanting to be here and Mitch Clark isn't among them even if he's not wanted. 100% put in effort for the shirt whenever he played and hope he enjoys his time at Fleetwood.

And your point is???????????????????????

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 - he was just showing his passion and competitive nature (must admit never saw any of that, but wouldnt surprise me 😂😂😂😂)

I thought it was pretty obvious but as you asked.

 

I didn't see it so I couldn't tell you if it happened or not but some mentioned that they did. I was at the back of the hamil and remember the opposition being incensed. One incident was near the bycars and the other Infront of the railway.

If he did hit someone and the coaching staff saw it or it was on video I would imagine they told him not to do it again especially on the rare occasion that we are winning. If he the did it again it shows that you can't rely on him and may account for him being dropped.

 

I'm not saying it happened, I'm not saying it's the reason he was dropped. I am speculating that it could be the reason he was dropped when it appeared that him and Cole were building a good partnership.

Really don’t like that move. I rate clark for me he’s a good player at this level and no worse than our other Rb options. 
I’m a bit concerned given how injury prone Gabriel and John are as well. Also strange as he would be an asset in league 2 as he was previously. 
 

Maybe we’re in for someone else who can cover there. Either that or Brady will release his inner Darren Moore and start playing Hall or Garrity there

Good luck to Mitch but 3 RB's is overkill and with Mitch in the final 6 months or so of his contract it makes sense if it helps to free up some funds to help elsewhere on the pitch.

Think assuming Ruari is heading north of the border the Scottish transfer window for some reason or other is open a few hours later than the English one so no rush on the front to confirm it.

Personally I'd have gone with John and Clark as the right backs. Gabriel is good offensively but too much a liability as a RB for me. I doubt very much we are in for somebody else, he wants a smaller squad remember. 

Be interesting though what JB does in an injury crisis.
