Was not over enthralled by what I seen , I know it’s a friendly and no one wants to get injured or commit to anything much . I’m happy with that but I am concerned about Simms , I hope I’m totally proven wrong but he does seem very lazy and his ball control is not the best . I’m not one to slag our players off unless they are in the category of Walker ,so please please please SIMM’s don’t be like Walker .

[its a buzzard]

You are one to slag our players off though

 

[clint van damme]

There were some hairy moments from the back line but all of them are very comfortable on the ball and are good passers .
Even though Simms was slightly off it today it looked like him and Godden are getting a good understanding going .
Centrally we were different class
Collins didnt fill me with confidence though

Agree. Simms hasnt played a lot of football since being recalled from Sunderland, he's bound to be rusty .

 

[Ccfcisparks]

So from pre season we can take that Simms is lazy and has a crap first touch, but we can't take that he's scored 4 in 4.

Think games being replayed in full right now anyway on their YT

Apart from the 4 goals though

Godden shouldn’t be starting Martin I’m sorry

Bolton won 4-3 didn’t they ?
Peterborough beat Birmingham City today as well

 

[Matt smith]

He’s a goal scorer

 

[SkyblueDad]

Back line will take time to gel, haven’t a clue what our best line up there is, got the Dutch lad to come in, Wilson to come back too, think we will all have to be a bit patient.

 

[Martin180]

Godden shouldn’t be starting Martin I’m sorry

He should till we replace him

 

[Matt smith]

He should till we replace him

Oh I agree

KP looks good

sheaf Gus kp and COH when fit, best midfield in the league

 

[Evo1883]

Played well today though matt , I'm sorry

Since when were you logical?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Think I've had a bang on the head

 

[Evo1883]

Since he was told to be or back in the basement

 

[Matt smith]

Evo sounds like I’m going in which maybe I am

should he be starting if we want top 6?

don’t get me wrong godden has been great for us

No but I'm not sure why his name rolls off everybody's tongue, because he played well .. better than simms by miles today

Hahahaha

It'll be a very short highlights show then. Sheaf's goal OK. Godden too slow, despite his positional awareness. Hamer showing his worth - head and shoulders above the rest when he came on. Palmer lively.

I love this place. Bunch of lunatics

Yeah fair comment simms was poor today

godden scored any this pre season?

don’t get me wrong godden is definitely worth keeping, as a bloody back up though

 

[Sick Boy]

Actually felt godden played quite well , lead the line well and probably should have scored 2 or 3


But I fully expect him to be 3rd 4th choice when we've finished our business , the hate is as usual unwarranted

Simms will bag 20 , I have no worries

Suggesting he should be a backup striker is hardly hating him; you’ve just said the same yourself.

Back on the wind up after that lovely post last night

rascal

 

[Matt smith]

Where’s my gimoc

We got top 6 last season and he was starting

The things you say about godden , some fans are already saying about Simms.. I feel they are as deluded as you too

your allowed to have an honest opinion without it being seen as slagging off.

Not quite everyone on here will lose their shit.

Yea but apart from that mate

 

[Matt smith]

True, I don’t know though Martin

I do get your point I genuinely do, I just don’t think he should be starting

 

[fernandopartridge]

Simms looked off it for me. But has the right ideas and is in the right places so hopefully it will click.

Palmer was class. Hamer changed it.

Think Simms will take time to come up to the level we want him to play at, very early days.
