  • I don't think Aneke would have been the answer either, so not devastated that he has gone.  I think the addition of a couple of strong wingers would have seen Stockley and Washington score plenty.
  • You might miss him a bit more if we are chasing to game on Saturday and need to make an offensive change.
  • Anyone listen to the 'Not The Top 20' podcast?

    They're pretty scathing about Wednesday's recruitment this year. Very underwhelming signing of players on the way down in their careers. They singled out Lewis Wing, a lad they've got in from Boro, who is particularly disappointing.

    In the last two seasons, Clare has played 37 times for Oxford and Burton scoring one goal. Morgan has made 50 appearances in the league scoring 1 goal. In the last three seasons, Dobson has played 118 games for Wallsall, Sunderland and Wimbledon and has scored 2 goals. Decent players, but I think a couple of them are going to have to up this rate significantly.

    We have lost JFK's goals and Shinnie got 3 in 29 for us. Whilst it isn't brilliant, it compares favourably to the goals we currently have in midfield. If I was an opposing manager, I would prioritise stopping Stockley. For me, Morgan is going to be a massive player for us, one way or the other. Is it his time or will there never be his time?

    Yeh I might.  Or I might be glad to see Davidson come on.
  • When Davison starts banging them in regularly, I too will become excited. Lot's of hope required and let's hope it comes off.
  • I'm normally positive at the beginning of the season to annoying levels...... but can only se us getting tonked.
  • I think the positive is that a lot of us will be far easier to impress if we are half decent on Saturday.

    I'll second that.  At this point I'd buy you a pint if we were in person.

    We will see what's what on Saturday. I will say one thing. Sandgaard ought to really debut his song as music to play at the end of a game when we win. It will sound a lot better then I suspect.

    You must have been on the East Terrace where there weren’t any acoustics definitely Matt Tees sung by the section of the Cupboard end choir I was in. Tees was an out and out  striker just like Eusebio 😉, Gregory was an inside forward akin to a CAM these days.

    We stood in the middle of the covered end (when we weren’t walking around the ground with everybody else to stand behind the goal we were kicking towards) and it was definitely Harry Gregory’s name in the song

    Nope not having that unless @SoundAsa£ tells me otherwise even then I know what I was singing with those around me like it was yesterday 😉.
  • This match has the feel of ‘Operation Massive’. There’s been a big build up. Thomas has released his record, there’s a programme of events, it’s live on SKY, we’re short in a couple of positions .. This Charlton and it’s a nailed on defeat 🙄

    Nigel Adkins has a neat bow towards the shipping forecast, something that resonates with his sun is shining mantra, he expects rain too.
    Watch out Thomasz Schafernacker, Nigel is about, lets hope we score early though and it's a fastnet.
    Be nice to see the Sheffield Wednesday keeper have to Fisher out a Forth, we will then all have a good Tyne, but must remember to remain Humber.
    Good to see you back, Seth! @seth plum

    Let's hope Sheff Weds get Rockall tomorrow.

    0-2. Angry fans raid the boardroom after the match.

    Only joking fellas...I do think it will be a tough game though. Fully expect Sheff Weds to be top 6. They've brought in an impressive amount & calibre of new players for a club under an embargo.

    Real prediction 1-1.

In the last three seasons, Dobson has played 118 games for Wallsall, Sunderland and Wimbledon and has scored 2 goals.

If I was an opposing manager, I would prioritise stopping Stockley. For me, Morgan is going to be a massive player for us, one way or the other. Is it his time or will there never be his time?
    To show that the past is no guarantee of the future, there's the Johnnie Jackson example.

    Before he signed for Charlton permanently in 2010, he'd managed to score just 19 goals in more than 200 League appearances,
    including 13 goals in 107 appearances in a 3 year spell at Colchester, up to then his best return.

    Yet he managed 51 goals in 243 appearances at Charlton, some seasons getting into double figures.

    Depending on the role they play and how the team is set up, why shouldn't someone like Clare get a decent tally from midfield.
    Maybe DJ too. And if Morgan establishes himself in the 1st team, no reason why he can't pick up half a dozen, like JFC did last season.

    And there may even yet be a new signing that adds to the midfield tally.
