Name these core young players who will be here next season
We’re 11th, 7 points off of playoffs, after 32 games, the comparison between Slade’s 17 games is plain stupid.
Now we’ve beaten Rochdale, I can see us winning the next 2-3, equally we’ll probably go on a losing run after that. That’s been the pattern this year, and that’s indicative of a naive, young team.
Building on this in the summer and we can compete in the playoffs because we do have a good core of young players.
Otis it didn’t at all ever look like he got anything on it. Let it go.Did at first, because Chaplin clearly claimed it and it looked like he maybe did get a toe end on it, but having looked at the slow mo it appears to go past him.

We have Hyam, Bayliss, Chaplin and Hiwula all contracted starters. Players like McCallum are coming through and others in the U23s are apparently close to making the step up.
Bayliss could leave, but we’ll get a healthy fee if he does. As could Burge and Willis, but think Willis will end up staying.
You are such a numpty. There is no embarrassment.I know it’s embarrassing
It was news to just Otis and Chaplin. Also whoever it was at the club who asked for it to be looked at.Old news-it took a deflection off a defender after Thomas had a shot. Now let’s all move on....
Yup.It was news to just Otis and Chaplin. Also whoever it was at the club who asked for it to be looked at.
Actally went to the dubious goals panel since who awarded it to Thomas last week (look in the telegraph for link). I did also say it was deflected from a defender.Yup.
If someone had said at the start it WAS deflected, but not off Chaplin the debate wouldn't have perpetuated, but the argument came back when I said there was a deflection that there was no deflection at all, which I thought was nuts.
Mind.... now it's been given, I think we all have to assume Chaplin DID touch it don't we?
I think everybody knew it hit a defender so assumed it that was known.Yup.

Yes you did, Rob and I clocked that. But that was weeks after the initial discussion.Actally went to the dubious goals panel since who awarded it to Thomas last week (look in the telegraph for link). I did also say it was deflected from a defender.
Yeah, I wasn't aware everyone knew it was off the defender.I think everybody knew it hit a defender so assumed it that was known.
The way Chaplin then started going on about it was weird. In his interview as well.
No-it’s nothing to do with Chaplin now-it’s been credited to Thomas. Again, time to move on.....Yup.

I meant he was embarrassing going on about it like he was in interviewsIt's not embarrassing in the slightest. Just a misunderstanding.
I should have watched the highlights.
Eh? Aren't people saying it HAS now been credited to Chaplin?No-it’s nothing to do with Chaplin now-it’s been credited to Thomas. Again, time to move on.....
Are you on the wind up now?Eh? Aren't people saying it HAS now been credited to Chaplin?
Ah, no, not you. Grendel talking about me!I meant he was embarrassing going on about it like he was in interviews
Err.....Are you on the wind up now?
Ah, no, not you. Grendel talking about me!
Jesus man! It’s Thomas’ goal FFS!Eh? Aren't people saying it HAS now been credited to Chaplin?
Yeah, I know.Jesus man! It’s Thomas’ goal FFS!
I have zero idea what he's trying to achieve.He’s playin’ u like a fiddle m8

Which one of them shouldn’t have been sacked?
They are all hiding mate until we lose again then they will all appear again as if by magicSo..............does anyone on here think that we should sack MR?
It's a big NO from me, for what that's worth.
But of a weird supporter supporter to only turn up if we lose isn't it?
Going out on a limb here but I'd only pick Slade out of that lot, and he was a special case as was only there to the end of the season and allegedly wasn't even being paid. The rest I would have let continue for a full 5 year term, to give them a fair chance of instituting long term progress. The odd relegation here or there isn't justification for sacking a manager - i strongly feel that what we need is a long term (5 years not 15 months manager) and that results in the short term should be disregarded in order to create the conditions where long term decision making can be made. Yes, this is a licence to fail/struggle but since we have used the opposite "lose some games,sack the manager" tactic since dinosaurs roamed the earth i think it's time to try a different approach. Clearly giving each manager 15 months on average has not helped us progress as a club.
