    Have the wheels properly fallen off since Page got injured? Who’d have thought it?

    Still seeking clarification on Jimmy's sandwich. I have ten quid on cheese and tomato.

    Are you out of your mind? The season of the M&S Turkey Feast is once more upon us. I don't like religion, but if millions of dead people from crusades, witch hunts and all-out wars had to stand for something, then it can stand for the annual return of the most glorious sandwich since I got hugged by two Sugarbabes.
    Phew, I had you down as some kind of cheese and marmite weirdo...
    I don't know how to take that.

    With pickle, I suppose!

    The thing about this division this season is that appears anyone can beat anybody else. For example Plymouth are 2-0 up at Scunthorpe who are one of Bowyer's fancied teams for top 6.

    Second half will be a test of character and desire. I hope we're up for it.

    Ben Reeves is readying himself to join the action for the second half. #cafc

    The table at half time against Oxford looked very healthy (4 points behind p'boro and 1 outside playoffs with a game in hand). Currently sit 13th, 11 points behind p'boro (2nd) and 5 points outside the play offs

    First game really that Solly has struggled at Left-Back

    I'd even consider taking him or Dijksteel off in favour of Sarr so that we've a proper left footed player to deal with their attacker

    Bowyer is likely to have a chat with the lads at the half time break.

    What do you think he should say...?
    Which lads..?

  • rel="bazjonster">Painful to watch! Classic example of how a team of supposedly inferior players can nullify the opposition simply through a better work rate, desire and hunger to win. Read often on here that this is a 'crap league'; sadly, we're part of that at times.

    The new 'short' corner routine is shocking and Taylor's spot kick was poor (should definitely had a second penalty at the end of the half though). No one playing well although Bielik does appear to be the stand out player (for want of a better phrase!). Not sure how to change things? Vetokele for Grant maybe? Definitely not a game for Reeves. Far too physical for him and they won't let him have the 5 minutes he needs on the ball to execute anything of any real substance.

    Be amazed if we get anything out of this but would take a point now.

    Don't tell bazjonster about Reeves coming on!

    Unless he changes it up we could score 2 and lose 5-2. Just like the Scunthorpe game. If I was Bowyer I would switch Pratley & Bielik. Maybe bring Pratley off. Bring Reeves on in the middle.

    No cohesion first half. Let's see what he does to switch things around.

    Not sure why he hasnt started today...

    Unless Bowyer has concerns about his fitness seeing he's been made of glass since he's been with us so is trying to protect him so we get more games out of him
  • There are no wheels left on our bus to come off.

    Maybe we can get a couple in on loan in January.

    No wonder we are losing to bloody Rochdale with those sort of sandwich choices within our fanbase.

  • Listening on cafc player. We sound awful!

    Harsh assessment.

    I thought @KillersBeard and @StubleyAddick have done well in the first half.

  • I like LB a lot, but he should be getting more out of this squad. Fuck off Roland.

    Mid table squad in mid table. LB a mid table manager?

    If you think a side with Taylor, fosu, aribo, Cullen to name just a few should be sitting mid table then I'm glad you aren't in charge. Our squad is let down by its size and that is down to RD but in my opinion the players we have available should be doing much better.
    We say the same thing every season. We all think our squad is better than it actually is or it's down to a succession of mediocre managers?

    We're in League 1 and not performing - can't blame it all on RD.

  • Odd sub.
