No sign of the new lad possibly in the Squad this week against Watford ?

If Baka isn’t replaced by Walker on the bench then Tavares would be in. Reid might get a place as Dacosta will be number 1 on Sat and Pask bombed out.

I thought Morgan Williams played very well in that single League 1 match he played in, vs Fleetwood in 2019. Now on the bench in what is virtually an U18 side. I know he's been injured, but wonder what else has stunted his development?
Yes, had big hopes for Williams. He's had a couple of loans with good reviews, but has had injuries too which hasn't helped. He's 21 now. Needs to be breaking into the first team this season.

Better days says he hasn't kicked on but agree, looked decent. Had a few loan spells and done okay by the sounds of it. On the bench has coming back from an injury. Wouldn't rule him out yet to step up.

I think with Baka's injury Tavares will be on the bench at the weekend.
Young, young side this.


Making decisions on the youngsters so testing them out in a higher age group to see how they respond I guess.

I also assume that is definitely George and not Jack, as he's using his squad number, and I heard that their loans had been ended cos the league Gloucester play in has been suspended.

National League North/South suspended for 2 weeks. Assume they are probably back training with us but still registered with Gloucester.

Wierdly the team news tweet has been deleted.

Has the game been called off at the last minute?

You think we maybe signed someone after the transfer deadline and are trying to keep it secret from the FL?

They didn't want everyone finding out Gervane 'Secret Weapon' Kastaneer never left...

Any idea why now when covid numbers are falling? I am all for lockdown until Easter as long as it's the last one.

I think they're voting on whether to continue or cancel at some point in the near future. Cancelling means they can furlough staff and players and could save some clubs/stop them taking on debt. They're trying to pressure the government for grants.

These clubs have pretty much zero income currently but still have to pay players. They aren't paying them much, but even that when you have no income is a lot.
