Dobson's second touch is a foul pretty much every time.
U mad, I’d take Lapslie over Dobson 6 days a week and twice on Sunday.Callumcafc said:

Just his usual headless chicken act. League 2 is his level.cfgs said:Watching Salford v Mansfield on Sky. George is very busy up and down the pitch
As an aside, I watched (or should I say, had on in the background) the 2 matches from League 2 today & thought the standard very poor. Salford, especially, thought they were Man City & tried passing it around the back, even when they needed to score to have any chance of the play offs. Very little goal mouth action & too much sideways passing.1 -
I didn’t directly say I rated Dobson back in August but I will take the win here, based on the comments it was surrounded by!Callumcafc said:

Lapslie looks well suited to L2.
Good luck to him.1 -
Not sure why there is a need to be rude about an ex youth player and fan of the club who always gave his all/best when he played for us. L2 is likely his level and that is better than most academy players. I am happy that George has carved out a league career, a very likeable pro.golfaddick said:

what did you want me to say, that he ran the show ? The fact is he didnt stand out and people on here last season were wanting him to be a main stay of our midfield......just like they do Morgan.cafcsinger said:

I think what we would ALL like you to say, at some point in your obviously miserable and negative life, is something positive, about something, anything, for fucks sake !!golfaddick said:

By the way it’s ‘mainstay’ - just saying9 -
There are very few things more certain in life than Golfie being more miserable than anyone else about anything.5

"If you have nothing nice to say, dont say anything at all"
Too often the approach of many is: "Well its a public forum, if you dont like it, go away"
But equally if someone wants to be constantly miserable, dont bloody well drag others down to your misery. Has gone for a lot this season, none of us are stupid, there hasn't been much to be cheerful about.
But people should always think about the impact their words can have on others3 - Sponsored links:

To be fair, he does have occasional bouts of positivity, which tend to result in other posters asking "who are you, and what have you done with Golfie?" when he does it on the Match Thread. But then if his optimism proves misplaced he plummets at high speed into miserablism again.Dazzler21 said:There are very few things more certain in life than Golfie being more miserable than anyone else about anything.

What is noticeable is that for all of Golfie’s negativity this doesn’t often show itself in the players marks thread especially when we’ve played poorly. It’s as if someone else has marked the the players for him………..Golfie Junior maybe 🤔😉aliwibble said:

With the players marks my usual starting point is a 7. Then I add or subtract 0.5 of a point depending on performance, goals etc. Top is usually 8 or 8.5, bottom is usually a 6 or 5.5 if they had a stinker.RedChaser said:

He has done well for Mansfield. I remember best , he set up that goal when we won away at Portsmouth. Decent player , maybe I little lightweight for Charlton First team. I glad he doing well. after leaving Charlton.1

Nominated for Player of the Month - two goals, won two penalties plus an assist so he has been involved in more goals than we scored in September. Well done George!11

Had a very good season so far. From watching the highlights, he's getting into the box lot more than he used to, proper box to box play!Addick Addict said:Nominated for Player of the Month - two goals, won two penalties plus an assist so he has been involved in more goals than we scored in September.

Mansfield play just the one up top with Lapslie just behind him. If only we had use for a player in that position who can score, create and win penalties!!!killerandflash said:

No doubt he will score a hat trick against us at home, when we are in League Two next season...

He has found his level. Morgan would be best to join him in League 2.4

He might be. He might not. Some did and would have said the same about Laurie Wilson when we released him. Players develop at different rates and I doubt that Mansfield will dump him in they achieve promotion which would be ironic if we do go the other way.Todds_right_hook said:

There is one aspect of this and that is the person who has converted him to that position - Nigel Clough. If anyone knows what it takes to fulfil that role it is him.2 -
He had a similar run early last season didn't he? Didn't do much for the other 2/3rds. The guy is an enthusiastic, likeable player but he is sadly not good enough technically. When we're desperate for quality in the final third, Lapslie is not the answer!3

Weird number to start on seven, i always start on five. I don't understand how a 5.5 can be a stinker.golfaddick said:
