We've got Fry, Tavernier and now Bolasie out injured. Fletcher is still coming back, Mendez-Laing needs more game time and Hall has only just come back.Admire your optimism and hope you're right .. but I can't see it at all. Not now. Something's off .. big shame!
We've played that all season but managed to work our way to a decent points haul.Schitt football!
I have never been sure about Hall since he came in but hopefully we start to get some use out of him. Was surprised to hear he wasn't even a Warnock signing when I thought he was .. apparently was due to come here before we'd even appointed NW.We've got Fry, Tavernier and now Bolasie out injured.

Hadn't realised that, but it might explain why Hall has been sitting on the bench with Fry injured.I have never been sure about Hall since he came in but hopefully we start to get some use out of him.

Injuries at this time are so annoying and typical. The Bolasie thing really irked me when learned of it yesterday.
Need Fry and Tav back in and up to speed asap. Fletcher will need a few games to get into his stride, we know what he is capable of. I've given up on Britt. Akpom, not even thinking about him anymore. We need to get that area sorted out in the Summer .. going to be some task! Hope we finally identify someone who is going to get us goals more often.
Then there's the service to whoever is up top come next season. I hope Mendez-Laing comes good of course, then Kabano looks exciting. Whether we'll attempt to keep him though, is another thing. Especially since Fulham are likely to come down. I think he'll do well in the few games he's got to play here the rest of the season, and there'll be a battle on to keep him here!
Bolasie I think is a write-off.. if the injury is bad as it sounds. He'll be back perhaps for the last few games of the season, then going to be sold off by Everton come to Summer but it's unlikely he will remain with us IMO. He turned up to get games and get himself in the shop window, though he's knackered that chance now with his injury setback!
Wish Warnock would take the captaincy off Britt. Long overdue. I understand giving him it at the start hoping it would get more out of the fella but considering what he earns a week, we're getting fk all in return. He just isn't working and if we're lucky enough to find another suitor for him, some money .. we can try to finally identify a decent striker from League One or another place who's going to do a job for us.
I wonder if there's a team in Greece willing to pay for Akpom if he was performing better over there at that level than here. Get shot if we get the chance. Haha. Three million wasted. If we made that back for him I'd be pleased but it's likely to be more cash spaffed away on rubbish.
I've nothing against Britt personally, but he's just gash. I remember being glad when we signed him thinking he'd improve a lot here and hit at least 15+ a season! Pffft.
The same goes for Akpom. I'd wish him the best elsewhere, but he's not a player fit for a promotion-chasing side.
Perhaps. I had totally forgotten about Hall was a player we'd signed until recently.Hadn't realised that, but it might explain why Hall has been sitting on the bench with Fry injured.
Only recently come back from injuryHadn't realised that, but it might explain why Hall has been sitting on the bench with Fry injured.
Johnson has to be involved in a front 3, front 4 or even front 2! We just have to do the best with what we’ve got right now.I have never been sure about Hall since he came in but hopefully we start to get some use out of him.

The same goes for Akpom. I'd wish him the best elsewhere, but he's not a player fit for a promotion-chasing side and couldn't score to save his life. I know he was put in the side to play another role than just poaching goals but there's been nothing of note since the first two games from him. Get rid.
Definitely. Always wondering each match day lately, why has Johnson been robbed of a start again ... NW thinking of him more or as an impact player when we need him?? I think he should be in the side from the start. I know it's tricky picking a team but the stats you show there prove why he should be in the side starting from the off.Johnson has to be involved in a front 3, front 4 or even front 2! We just have to do the best with what we’ve got right now.
So much to consider, like giving match time to new players.. bringing them up to speed. The sacrifices made have not paid off.I think in general lately, a lot of NW's decisions have been poor on match days as well as choices with subs, etc, Think that's the first time I've critiqued him since he has been here. Haha.
Idiotic post of the year.Tony Pulis > Neil Warnock
Yeah. It's definitely a tricky one, a very hard job. Certainly not one I'd like to sit and figure out but depending on what happens in the Summer, it's starting to identify a team we can build around what we have now, what we brought in through January, etc. A top-six finish still isn't impossible either! But I think NW will now be more looking ahead ... I hope so anyway as it'd be great to have him on another year and try and build on what we've got in this Summer's pre-season.So much to consider, like giving match time to new players.. bringing them up to speed.

All Warnock should be thinking about is racking up points. We need to re-jig things for the Huddersfield game. Everyone expects points to be delivered on a plate against the likes of Derby but it simply isn’t the case. Neither is it that we’re fine and dusted and should be thinking about who we are going to bring in this summer.Yeah. It's definitely a tricky one, a very hard job.

As long as we manage to finally sort our striker situation out. Also a new keeper. Then who knows how far we could go next season ..
Suppose, aye. Many things to think about .. Brentford getting beat now aren't they last I checked?? It's rock-hard calling results in this league, especially at moment! I did say yesterday Derby would beat us though and had them on my accas haha (felt bad betting against my own team but ..) annoyingly usual 'bankers' wrecked them for me elsewhere. I did have Derby, Bournemouth to draw, Burnley, Leicester and couple of others in La Liga I got right but I got ruined elsewhere. First time I've bothered betting in ages, started doing accas bored since Boro have been on the slide to try make my lockdown Saturdays more exciting ha ha haAll Warnock should be thinking about is racking up points.

There are goals in this team (perhaps not in Britt) we just need to configure the team in the best way possible. Kebano looks like a treat! and we still have goals in Watmore and Johnson.
