Awful penalty. That's why Connor isn't good enough for a promotion push, squad player at best
He's our top scorer in the League? - Look at the rest first perhaps
Top scorer in our worst ever team. He's not good enough to lead a top 2 push. I don't see how that's a controversial opinion
Just scuffed a sitter too
The form when we've had Stockley and Washington as a centre forward pairing says otherwise
Top 2 form? No didn't think so
1.92ppg when they both start. (88pts)
0.88ppg when they don’t. (41pts)
Stockley and Washington aren’t the problem with this team.
Of course we would have done the double over Wigan and MK Dons and Oxford if they had played every game. Meaningless stat without context.
I can dig up some context around league position of our opponents for each game later post match but we’ve played 26 games this year without them and only got 23 points.
Only 12 games with them both starting has honestly been our downfall. Is 1.92ppg realistic across 46 games? Probably not but they would at least have us in the top six.
Based on the last 2/3 performances you think you're watching a top 6 side? Honestly?
Flip it on it’s head. Six points from three games while not playing very well…
When's the last time we played well?
Played 14th, 21st and today against 23rd with Stockley and Washington. We don't look above these teams, today is probably the only one I'd say we were 'better' than them.

With how bad the midfield and defence has been without them, I’d argue our focus should be in those areas because Stockley and Washington are one of the best striker combos at this level.
If Stockley & Washington had started every game we would still not be in the top 6 as we dont have the quakuty of players to supply them. Midfield is too weak & only winger worth his salt is CBT and also not enough aerial crosses for Stockley to attack.
Happy to keep Washington for next season but neither him or Stockley are good enough to get us promotion as a front two.

Spot on. We definitely need 'another Washington' next season aswell. The issue this season hasn't been the strikerforce, it's been the fact we've not had any decent cover for either when they've been missing. If we had two Washingtons, Stockley and Aneke I think we'd have the best set of strikers in the division.
HT. The picture unfroze, then came back with the commentary ahead of the pictures. You can't go back to ambient sound only. It has to be pictures with no sound.

This team is much better with them in it. No one has said other wise.
Is it good enough is the question.
I think you add a couple of midfielders, a couple of centre backs and dynamic wing backs (maybe a keeper to push the boat out) and we have the makings of a team that is good enough.
Will still need another striker anyway and we should be aiming for one better than the ones we have got.

I want us to bring one, ideally two strikers (given Aneke’s fitness issues). With a stronger team behind them and proper competition for their places they’re both good enough to play their part in a promotion side.

Hey, mate .... put a sock in it. We know we're crap. But we don't need you to keep moaning about it every 5 minutes all through the thread.

I dont think that's controversial.
