Not being funny, it shouldn't take weeks to change a formation.

No it should but I've heard managers say in the past that they like a few weeks to change the system... I can understand for this week as we played Tuesday night so it's short notice to change and prepare.

Me personally at a professional level you should be able to understand different systems and roles allocated within

Not good news for Jones or the confidence of the squad.
MR's must act quickly to ensure the spirit is not dampened.
Are loans or emergency loans possible?
We have Nazon from Wolves proving to be a top asset for us so can we get another?

Hopefully we have money available, if not I've see we've got no choice but to cash in on someone, we need 2 pacey wingers now.

Not sure I’ve ever been as gutted to hear of an injury than this one. You just need to look at his stats to see how vital he’s been to our season so far. Cue 20 0-0’s and Peter Vincenti. Those bastards need to change the habit of a lifetime and back our manager in January or it’s the annual slide once more. FUUUUUCCCCKKKKKK!

Truth be told there has been such a reliance on Jones to do the business, it may now give those underperforming, a psychological kick up the arse.

Time for the likes of McNulty and Vincenti to step up to the plate. We need another game changer from somewhere, Robins needs to drill that into them before Saturday!

I don’t think we know his best position, more so robins. However this injury will mean he will be an out and out winger for the remainder of the season unless we are able to recruit in January

or we change formation :)

don't get all the Vincenti bashing

its not like he's playing in his actual position

Really? You don’t get why people criticise him? He’s been a bloody disgrace not only to himself but the football club who pays his salary. God only knows why he was signed and if Robins could turn the clock back and was honest with himself he wouldn’t have touched him.

He infuriates me when I watch him.

If I had to choose the bigger disgrace then you're it.

He's playing out of position. Do you think he wants to play as a right winger ?. Imagine sticking Kelly or Doyle out there, see how they do,

Go on pal go on my son you back the useless tosser. Go on back him till you can’t anymore. Go on pal!

WAKE UP FAST!
He's been good in about 3 games this season and they've all been when the ball has played through midfield. He's been played out of position and used as a long ball outlet, in a team with no central midfield, that excels on the counter attack. It's painfully obvious it's not his game but he's done it anyway for the good of the team while idiots like you slag him off at every opportunity without a clue what's really happening out there. We have to play a team game from now on with the squad we have left and he can be a useful part of that as a late arriving central midfielder into the box, if the tactics are right. We've beaten Luton and Notts County 3-0 with him in the team. It's not him that is the issue.

I started getting bored after your 347th sentence . Please try and reduce the amount of words you use to keep the audiences attention. Thank you.

Been good in 3 games this season? I take it all back then!

Where did he play at Rochdale?

I watched him on sky once and he was outstanding, he was box to box, like a league two Viera. It was always a gamble with him due to his injuries, but we at least need to give him a go in the middle

I don't know what's depressing me more: Jones being out for the season, or people mentioning that they want Kyel Reid back.

Grendel - I think I'm going to need that number for Samaritans immediately.

I think Samaritans are going to have to free up their phone lines. Looks like you need to join me and Grendel.

It’s hard not to be really downhearted about this injury. Players like Jodi that make it worth going to games, and I really like the lad. Just hoping that he will come back even better.

To try and find a positive in a horrible situation, at least it didn’t happen in July or August. Hopefully he can aim at a realistic target of starting next season, thus “only” missing just over half a season rather than a whole one. And if we can somehow get up into League One, we could hope to keep him longer than might otherwise have been the case.

Not until January.

We can only sign free agents at the moment, for example Moussa, but they could take a while to get fully up to speed

If Robins is consistently playing him out of position that tells you he dont rate him in his actual preferred position wherever that is

Thing is there is nothing we can do to get Andreu or Jones back it is up to the remaining players now to up their games and show how much they want to be here no use in the likes of Vincenti saying he is disappointed in his performances do something about it work harder, if these players cannot up their game get rid they are not worth persevering with, Biamou has improved so has McNulty but the likes of Stevenson, Vincenti and Beavon have regressed are they sulking? If so get rid time to put up or fuck off

or, they are going through a bad patch !

remember, it wasn' t that long ago when....


Jones is just another from the conveyor belt of Mowbray and Venus. For older readers it's like the prizes in the generation game - all shite..

It's no wonder there was no money given in January to strengthen look at our last 2 purchases however the money was sourced from the kitty....
JJ and Turnbull, both shocking. .
