How is that stretching it?
They're 7 players that would have been in the squad today had they been fit, so of course the squad is weak without them
Walker might have been in the squad, but that's because of how light we are on numbers. Robins would have him out the door tomorrow given the chance.
You're not seriously suggesting that the squad is good enough and Robins has been backed in the last two windows?
No, I said we need more signings.
I'm just saying that today was an anomaly and with 7 or 8 first teamers missing of course the squad looks shit, just about any team in the league would have a bunch of 21s on the bench with that many missing.
The bench/squad will look nothing like it did today in 2 weeks time.
most of those players have been missing for weeks haven’t they? We’ve also of course released two players.
It makes no difference how long they've been missing, if you have 8 out on any given day of course the squad is weakened.
its not weakened though by releasing two players which you seemed to find amusing?
I think it’s pretty desperate that we have 4 loans we need and a few players like Tavares Burroughs and Eccles and this is considered normal abs every club would be in the same situation as us in the league
Well your knowledge of the rest of the league is pretty lacking so it's not surprising you don't understand.
So you think we have a competitive squad and equal to most in the division?
I think Palmer is going to get on a scoring run. He is not far off it - just fine tuning.Losing fair and square is one thing, but losing to a goal that shouldn’t have stood is another blow to the player’s confidence. If only, if only…
We need a striker, a goal scoring midfielder, a centre back and probably two more players for the bench at this rate. Simply has to be done, otherwise I’m not confident that we can even stabilise and finish mid table.
Some positives though, from today: Cuffy looks promising and we’re clearly creating chances, but there’s no end product. Allen can’t shoot for shit, Palmer wants too much time before taking a shot, and there’s Vik running his arse off with no support.
Hopefully, there’s a few signings in the pipeline next week.
I'm out drinking but simply, we were arguably the better side and had the better chances to win.
The defending for the goal was as last week, we've got a severe problem of players not attacking the ball.

Saw a few people saying it was Dabo that lost his man for the goal but I've just watched it back and I'm pretty sure it was Gyokeres.
That's just it though, how many 30+ goals-a-season strikers have we ever had? They are pretty rare, Clarrie aside.
I didn't go or watch online but it sounded like we changed shape to two banks of four, was that right? If so is that likely to be a one-off or have these two loans been brought in to act more like wide midfielders and we go 4-4-1-1 for a bit now? Sounds like we really could have taken something from a really tough looking fixture yesterday, hope we can carry that into the Norwich game for a good result (hopefully with some more signings to improve options off the bench too).
You'd think a back 4 would have to be considered at some point given how few natural centre-halves we have. Sheaf, Dabo and Bidwell have been tried there and i'd not want any of that on a regular basis. Sounds like Cuffy could be a real threat down the right.I think it was down to personnel with Panzo suspended and the new loanee injured, though it looked pretty solid.

Our chances weren't nearly as clear cut as I had expected them to be from the radio commentary. Jamie should have gone far post but there was a defender to beat that way and Vik just couldn't get his shot away
all straight reds are 3 games1 game for handball I think
all straight reds are 3 games
One game ban. Three game ban is for violent conduct.all straight reds are 3 games
That's incorrect pal. A straight red can be anything from 1 game to 6 games banned.all straight reds are 3 games
Defo Dabo for me, Vik was on Taylor who did a wide run and Vik got blocked off, but Dabo lost Beyer who got the goal.Saw a few people saying it was Dabo that lost his man for the goal but I've just watched it back and I'm pretty sure it was Gyokeres.
A) I am not your pal and B) I should have said a minimum of 3. Of course they can be more, sorry to have mislead you. Just replying to the idea that you could get a 1 game ban for a straight redThat's incorrect pal. A straight red can be anything from 1 game to 6 games banned.
