    Lath behind Coburn

    Not the first to suggest it but if we're sticking with the ridiculous formation I'd give them two a crack as a pairing .... I just keel heading back to 3-5-2 though, the team picks itself in a 3-5-2. Very frustrating... You've got epic subs for a 3-5-2 as well.

    Ye he needs to go

    Absolutely dreadful management he needs to go. Tonight confirmed it. Wednesday are guaranteed relegation this season.

    I wonder who's miffed in the dressing room...

    I reckon there must be quite a lot of rumbling in there at the moment. McGree - top player last season gets a couple of minutes a game must be upset and likely low morale Barlaser - bought in 'dream move' left to hero worship and top assister in the championship, must be seething Jones -...

    Change shape and style

    We NEED to drop 4-2-3-1 We need to stop trying to be so flipping fluid, players are popping up all over the pitch which is creating loads of room for the other teams when moves inevitably break down. Forget about scoring we can't do that we need to stop leaking goals. 4-3-3 Barlaser...

    Would you have Gareth Southgate back?

    If tomorrow Gareth said he wanted to manage Boro would you take him over Carrick?

    4-3-3 4-1-4-1 4-1-3-2

    I'm trying to craft out a winning formation for the lads. The 3 in the title are probably best bets. Change the style to pure attrition, keep the ball, slow and boring build up when we have all the possession and look for simple counter attacks down the wings when we dont. Ditch the 'press'...

    Staggering revision to UK GDP

    https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/gdp-revisions-show-uk-economy-almost-2-larger-than-thought/ Well I've never been a fan of brexit but the ONS say it turns out our economy had been over performing to a staggering number at the back end of 2021. I remember the SmallTowns of the fmttm...

    Rachel Reeves - no wealth tax

    https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/aug/27/rachel-reeves-rules-out-wealth-tax-if-labour-wins-next-election Hmm.... I'm sure that was one of the promises made by Keir before? So 'grow our way out of it'? Sure.

    Carrick 'not happy'?

    Where's that rumour come from?! Is it legit.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again

    We need to move to 4-3-3 We are **** weak in the middle as a 2.5ish free flowing flambeau. The defence we can't do f and all about apart from giving them and extra man as support. Howson Barlaser Hackney... Howson sitting deeper Barlaser and Hackney as the link. Rogers on the wing or bench...

    The front 4 problem

    So... We can play any combination of Forss/Jones/Silvera/Lath/McGree/Rodgers... It's created a bit of an issue, none of them (apart from Lath) stand out as bein better than their counterpart. You can argue the range is anywhere between 12th-4th in the league in quality... How do you pick from...

    Let's be honest about that team selection

    I've been ruminating about this for the past 5 minutes:- Barlaser Hackney Forss Crooks. McGree Rogers Let's deconstruct briefly We have a no 10 playing CF A CF playing Right wing And a CM / Tree playing number 10 Why?! It's painfully unbalanced...

    Barlaser

    I started a thread after the playoffs about Carricks epic mistake not playing the boy. He's a F***ing smooth baller and you idiots couldn't see it preferring to suggest Mowatt was a better choice, shame on you all. The guy is higher quality.

    What do you consider a good salary?

    Given that inflation has absolutely decimated the value of the pounds in your pocket over the past 24 months what do you now consider a good salary (Exclude the south east as it's a **** show). Personally I'd say at this time 75k is a decent base (maybe 50k in the north east). Shows how...

    I'm going to put my football neck on the line

    And say it... I think we're going to struggle next season. I know that we're not back from holiday yet but I can sense the way the wind is blowing. The poor end to last season will be compounded by a poor transfer window and losing our best players (due to them being loans that don't return)...

    Why no Barlaser...

    I came back to the site to ask this question.. It's been on my mind since the game, I know the hive mind have decided he's no good but since the game I'm just left thinking about that missed opportunity. Both Hayden and Mowatt played very defensively, and I get that Mowatt put a shift in but...
