Pardon me for chipping in but whilst at work last night driving having to use Radio 5 for coverage of the game they made reference a few times to Barca utilising 442. Now I know immediately you think I’m a dinosaur anyway because of previous conversations about football tactics or playing...

I really hope MR is able to deliver a few good experienced players in key areas of the squad to bring the calming affect to our performances and help the younger lads around the squad. *by experienced I mean players with 150/200+ senior appearances and a few seasons behind them not the type who...

Disagree partly as the previous two performances against Doncaster and Accrington we was quite poor for large parts of the game. That second half against Doncaster we were battered and was hanging on with Burge and Brown securing the points with last gasp saves. You can say momentum was with...

I’ve no big issue if he leave and not surprised he’s exercising his right to move on a free for the first time in his career, that’s football in the modern game so I’ll not beat him about loyalty. I’d rather know now as the gaffer before I sit down with all my players in the next week or two...

Your forgot Doyle lost his legs on Blackpool pier in August so it looks like, ha ha ha. In all honesty this summer has some good building blocks again after a very encouraging season Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think we all see he’s a talent and huge potential, I don’t believe anyone is writing him off. Even if he went on to win the Ballon d'Or in his career his performances for a bigger percentage of this season have been fairly open to criticism no matter what the future he may hold. Some people...

Personally I don’t know where he fits in to MR preferred 4231 system, I’d push him towards the 10 role but I’m not so sure it’s for him either at this stage of his development and what he’s shown so far and if Enobakhare was to become a ccfc player then he gets that role which pushes him out the...

Thinking ahead for next season I want Sunderland out the division, be happy for Portsmouth if they got promotion tho instead as they are a good example of a likeable club rising up from the mess they found themselves in. Really looking forward to next season already with some great away days...

Rotherham I predict will be a strong side for L1 next year as will Ipswich. The remainder of the current top 10 will be in contention next year. Next year for me is a good opportunity to crack the top 6 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes agree there is very good reason to why he’s highly rated, we witnessed it last season and glimpses this season. Fact remains Shipley came in and stepped into the hole and did a creditable job at times and achieved the same L1 goals return as Bayliss in far less match minutes. As I say...

Might rock the boat with this comment but it’s only fair to say his performances over the last 4 games next to Kelly have passed Tom Bayliss’s previous 10 plus games. I’m not saying he’s the answer but has been a reliable squad player who isn’t seen through the same tinted glasses as the...

Well worded and I gave it time to read, it’s a fair counter you make. Good post. I think Stendhal also had some fortune in the players already at his disposal for a attack on L1 striker in attacking threat of Keiffer Moore and Cauley Woodrow. Granted Keiffer Moore had a season ending injury in...

Think he was referring to another player loan as opposed to Sterling again. If Sterling is loaned back to a L1 club his time and development here hasn’t been very good in Chelsea’s eyes I’d imagine. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I too think Stendal has done a very creditable at Barnsley who sit 6 points clear having played a game more. Similar to Sunderland we’re relegated from the championship and like you say have gone about business very quietly and admirably. Sunderland being the most recent fallen giants so to...

Yeah I take your point, I just think it was a very difficult tasks to go into coming to L1 from winning the Scottish championship with St Mirren to the wreckage of Sunderland and turning the clubs fortunes around in one main summer window and a January too with back to back relegations utilising...

Don’t think you could pick any holes in either side in all honesty. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

This is the team of the season Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Here’s the PFA L1 team of the the year. Pretty fair vote in my opinion. James Collins would be my player of the year Manager would be Jack Ross. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yeah I use and looked on that site myself. Usually quite good but slow to update stats recently Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Stokes is back in favour and scored 3 goals in as many games. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
