  • We will never get out of this division with Morgan playing in midfield. He’s not strong enough and  doesn't impose himself enough. He’s obviously a talented footballer and shows up well in training. All the managers play him and then steadily lose faith. We need another agressive ball winner who can also play a bit alongside Dobbo & Fraser.
    Maybe Russell or Kilkenny will do the job but someone has to.
    100% agreed 
  • Lets deal with the rest of 2022/23 first before we think about next season, no guarantee we'll have Bonne either

    Is it better that we get Stockley off the books now, so we know we need to find two permanent Strikers in the summer (provided we dont find someone else before tomorrow) - Rather than being in a position with Kirk, where we think he's coming back, not sure if he's staying, so cant really get a replacement until he's going.
    If the money is actually invested in the summer yes. 

    But I just see this as what it is currently; cost-cutting.

    Free transfers and loanees in, contracted players out if they can. If that happens again in the summer we will not move forward. 
  • Would you be happy with Leaburn and Bonne (+ Aneke occasionally) as our promotion-chasing strikers for 2023/24? 

    I certainly wouldn't. 
    No. But I wouldn't be happy with those two + (post injury) Stockley either. He'd need replacing now or in summer, if we can get him off the books now then so be it.
  • Is it just me that would actually be a bit pissed off if Kirk (arguably even Stockley) left and suddenly had a brilliant spell away from us? Particularly as they are staying in this division. 

     Would feel a bit like they've been taking the piss out of us all of this season.
    Different styles suit different players. 
    Stockley and Kirk may well find some form at another club.
    It's up to our recruitment team to now bring in players that suits the way Holden wants to play.
  • Bonne hasn't scored a goal in over a year. 
    How many minutes since his last goal from
    open play compared to stockley?

    Yeah I know what you're saying, not saying I disagree.

    I'd still be pissed off though being totally honest.

    Neither of them would be considered 'decent' is my point.

  • My cynical side says at it stands, it looks like primarily a cost reduction exercise to me. Get senior players off wage bill and cover with cheaper loans 
    Start all over again with another summer rebuild. Same Old. And we wonder why we can’t get near to promotion.

    Plotting?  Are they going to kidnap him under the cover of darkness? 
    Under cover of broad daylight from the ground.  In a big brightly coloured open topped car.  Very slowly.

    Here's a picture of Dean doing everything he can to stop him being snatched.

    DJ not going anywhere today.  Playing for the u21s.
    And scored after 4 minutes.

    Maybe we can loan him out to.the under 21s then? Get his wages off the books and all that 😉 
  • The PL Clubs will be watching keenly!
  • "Having DJ back is like having a new signing."
    Exactly what flashed into my head 😂

    I personally don’t mind DJ. I thought he’d be better for the money we paid for him but he has something about him & the below as our wingers isn’t bad:

    Right: Jes / DJ
    Left: CBT / Campbell (Payne back up)

    I do think we’ll be looking to bring in another though bearing in mind Campbell is still young and Jes isn’t ours. Scully would be good (to bring in now with a view on next season).

    I think this is the guy the @Swisdom mentioned a few days back, about the player that is playing a different position.

    Not tremendously surprised if Lincoln are offering first team football and we're saying he'll compete with Bonne and Leaburn for a starting spot

    Suggests we’ve looked at bringing in a striker but this is the problem. We need the depth but can’t guarantee game time. Very much means we’re relying on Leaburn and Bonne staying fit and hoping Chuks can be an option off the bench.
  • Would you be happy with Leaburn and Bonne (+ Aneke occasionally) as our promotion-chasing strikers for 2023/24? 

    I certainly wouldn't. 
    Absolutely not. We need at least two new forwards through the door in Summer. We need Kanu to go out on loan for the rest of the season too. 

    Aneke's contract simply needs terminating when this season is statistically over.
