Hat trick for Beavon tomorrow night and we all look like idiots
Oh you mean BeavonWho can't even skip past a goalkeeper whose falling to the ground injured
He played the full 90 minutes on Saturday.Not in the squad for Sutton today.
Apologies, bbc sport was wrong on the day, it had given the wrong number for Thomas so I had assumed it was a different Thomas.He played the full 90 minutes on Saturday.
You are joking, right?
It was a great effort and deserved a goal.
We will have to agree to disagree then."Sprinted" He was hobbling out
The keeper did come sprinting out, but then realised it was Beavon, and promptly collapsed in fits of laughter, thus splitting his sides, and was later substituted as a result.We will have to agree to disagree then.
Unfortunately there is no footage is there. For me he came out running at pace and only slowed down as he approached Beavon, clearly in pain.
Well I watched it intently and clearly on the replay you can see that there is no laughing.The keeper did come sprinting out, but then realised it was Beavon, and promptly collapsed in fits of laughter, thus splitting his sides, and was later substituted as a result.
If it's true he's only got 20 goals in his last 160 games for us, Burton and Preston I'm not going to hold out hope of a sudden goalscoring run.
I thought that in the second half, McNulty and Biamou looked dangerous in the second half, and both could have scored with a little luck. I think they’re worth persevering with.So he's back after an underwhelming stay at Sutton. Based on recent evidence I'd be tempted to include him in the side ahead of Biamou, alongside Nazon as a front 2, in a 442 with Jones and Devon on the wings. Got to be worth a try - Biamou, Beavon and McNulty do not look like scoring any time soon.
Did you watch the U23 game today?So he's back after an underwhelming stay at Sutton.

Thomas was very poor. Hardly won a header all game and his link up play was bad too. He never looked like scoring either.
Surely he needs to impress in games like these before he warrants inclusion doesn't he?
Based on recent evidence I'd be tempted to include him in the side ahead of Biamou,.
Yeah agree.I think Biamou and Thomas are very similar, but Biamou is ahead of Thomas at this moment in time. Thomas needs to earn his place by performing well for the U23's.which evidence is this ?. Far more evidence to suggest JP deserves a shot more than Thomas.

Exactly - the evidence is that our current crop don't appear able to hit a cow's arse with the proverbial banjo - KT looked decent in fits and starts last season, give him a go! Otherwise WTF are we paying him for?Why? Beavon won't score for the next century and he'll be on the bench again
Thomas did nothing today. Last two times Beavon has come on he has created chances for those around him.Why? Beavon won't score for the next century and he'll be on the bench again
There's also understanding the game when comparing Bergkamp, Regis .... and Beavon! I think we all appreciate a good creative talent or a hold the ball up type, even someone with strength and/or movement to create space but if running around aimlessly with no end product is viewed as an attribute I'm amazed that the scouting system missed me!I am sure most fans would be happy with Dennis Bergkamp in our team, even when we were in the top flight. Striker who scored 87 goals in 315 matches for Arsenal....0.28 of a goal per game..
Not prolific by any means but a great attacking threat and provider. I think Cyril Regis was similar a contributor rather than a finisher.
But two players that made your team more of a threat, more formidable, ignore them and they would pop one in the net. Mark them and they would pull your defence around so someone else could smack one in the back door.
Don't just watch the ball. That's my advice to really understanding the game.

I'd explode if he vaulted any fucker in the pecking order to be honest.We're not seriously suggesting a bloke who couldn't get in the Sutton side deserves to go straight into our first team?!?
fatso'd explode if he vaulted Ponticelli in the pecking order, anyway!
That's stretching it a bit for the vocal majorityDon't just watch the ball. That's my advice to really understanding the game.
How many strikers can we afford to have whose main attribute is not scoring?If anybody ever thought Beavon was a prolific goalscorer they are missing the point of the players attributes.
Beavon would kill for a scoring record like that 283 games 52 goals nearly a goal every six games and getting worse I would call it pathetic at best.
How many strikers can we afford to have whose main attribute is not scoring?
How many goals have our central defenders scored from set pieces?
How many goals have midfielders scored from free kicks?
Fans cry out for a big man up front, yet Denis Law and David Speedie both around 5' 9" scored most their goals with their heads. As well as leading the attacking line.
One of the reasons England aren't really successful at the top Internationally is because the fans are stuck in a 4-4-2 time warp.
Perhaps Beavon brings a lot to the dressing room and on the pitch. He has more experience of promotion and what it takes than anybody in our squad.
You can't say that. The fans clearly know better than the manager and are also privy to what goes on in the dressing room too.
