Saddle is as good as confirmed lets be honest

Yeah but he said emc out for season too. You mentioned just torp so thought maybe that one had been confirmed by club

Not good situation for sure. 4 midfielders for 3 spots.

Hoping Eccles will be back next week

EMC is out for the season isn't he?

 

[Bristol sky blue]

He has been as good as injured all season in his defence. Perhaps he is going to do a Liam Kelly and come back and play his best football at the most important time?

Fair point - I am not having a go at him, just been disappointing for a while.
Unfortunately, he may also hold back slightly for the very reason you mention...

 

[Johhny Blue]

Confirmed? Or saddle

Now Saddle’s injured?

 

[Bristol sky blue]

Hull? I beg to differ.

Hull, Hell and Halifax...!

 

[ptr]

Oh well fuck it. We still have more than enough. Is what it is. Tonight we will see just how good the squad togetherness is. Lati and Simms coming in are more than capable and will want to be involved with the run in. Still looking forward to the game.


3-1 hull

 

[Hincha]

God that defence worries me. Lati really needs to step up tonight and show why Burnley wanted him

 

[Nick]

He was a highly inflexible player. In the contest with Gerrard, it was always Gerrard (the better and more varied player) who had to give way because Lampard could only do one thing - attacking midfield - but was no good in a defensive role. At least Gerrard could do that, or had to completely give way to a specialist defensive midfielder like Gareth Barry. Formation was drive in part by Lampard's limitations

Good to see robins still checks in.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Time for people to step up. Lati had had good games under Lampard (Millwall away). Got to back them to have an impact.

Lampard registered as a player?

 

[TomRad85]

Big game for Simms and Sheaf. Both expected to be key players this season and both been off it. Would be great if they could turn up to the party.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Not very confident now with all the mounting injuries. Wtf.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Honestly don’t care about performance just the 3 points . Go out and win it

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

absolute meltdown on socials we’re playing hull not Liverpool, plenty in that team to cause problems for anyone, wright simms sakamoto, sheaf grimes rudoni, that’s quality, just probably need to score 3

Yep wright and sheaf were out we did ok
Thomas is a big miss though

surproeed Burroughs not on bench or howley

Burroughs and Howley are leaving in the summer so literally no point.

 

[covcity4life]

EMC is out for the season isn't he?

According to saddle. Not official from lampard or club yet I don't think

But yeah he prob is as saddle usually right

So not good at all rotation wise

Add Thomas back in for lati and this is the 11 we really need to keep fit to play every game ideally

 

[procdoc]

Where does Isaac Moore play, midfield?

 

[Nick]

Forgot about them. Guess we have full back cover with Bidwell.

Moore is in for midfield before howley (unless he's injured)

No tavares

 

[Captain Dart]

Hull have injuries too.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Are you on serious drugs?

Lampard has taken us from 2 points out of the relegation battle to being in 6th and playing a game in hand tonight where a win will put us in 5th and 5 points ahead of 7th with just 4 games remaining and you're still questioning if he is good enough for us because we've score a few late goals.

So who would have been your choice of manager and what does Lampard have to do to make you happy?

Can’t include the added time goals

 

[Warwickhunt]

Kasey Palmer to score

If you want to put a bet on Palmer it will stop the bugger scoring

 

[chiefdave]

I find our injury list mad

At FT V Sunderland we went into the international break with a fully fit squad


We now have

Dovin
EMC
Torp
Thomas
Eccles
BTA

All out injured for potentially the season (Eccles Thomas BTA Hopefully back) in a 4 week period

Absolute capitulation Injury wise I can't fathom it

Would be interesting to know what type of injuries.

You can't help some but I remember the England cricket physio talking about the data they collect and how every player is constantly in one of three groups, fine to play, can play but be cautious or likely to get an injury if they play. The way he spoke it was very unusual that, in this instance, Stuart Broad had got injured while rated fine to play.

Have we pushed the squad to far and created our own problem or is it just bad luck to get a bunch of injuries at the same time.

 

[procdoc]

Wish Sky would stop putting the cameras on those tramps

 

[Noble]

SBA sounding great on TV

 

[Martw]

Don't agree, they are our players right now, surely we need to utilise them? Especially ahead of a second GK

 

[Otis]

Where does Isaac Moore play, midfield?

Yeah, I believe so

 

[Nick]

At least Liam's dad is the ref

 

[Nick]

Good running from Simms.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Good start so far

 

[glasgowfan]

A minute gone and no moans about the ref yet?

 

[Marty]

How slow is their CB, Simms went past him like he weren't even there.

 

[Nick]

Great play between the lines from kitching. Good cross from rudoni but nobody gambling

 

[Nick]

How slow is their CB, Simms went past him like he weren't even there.

Need to keep doing it

 

[Nick]

What a good corner. Couldn't see who headed it but a solid header. Testing the keeper

 

[mmttww]

That looked over the line. Good start.

Edit: saw the replay, it was nowhere near!
