Look forward to Mannion getting injured in training, AMB being away and Colin the Kit Man in goal3

Yeah Dixon being called up for the Jamaica senior men’s team is 1/3 of the reason we had the chance to call it off in the first place.Henry Irving said:
Dixon won't be available and Casey has missed the last two U21 games.SantaClaus said:If one of our strikers goes down we can promote one of Mbick, Dixon, Casey etc. It's not the end of the world.
M'Bick is in good form though0 -
In that eventually, we’d thankfully (but unfortunately for Colin the Kit Man) have the option of an emergency goalkeeper loan from another EFL club.AFKABartram said:Look forward to Mannion getting injured in training, AMB being away and Colin the Kit Man in goal0 -

100% im sure after pre season and 3 games of the season, we would of seen the team turn in to prime Barcelona after we get Alan Campbell up to speed.Braziliance said:

Dixon wasn't in U21 Squad today and by all accounts has trained mostly with NJ. Due to get game time with yoof, not the same thing. Jamacia pick him every game.Covered End said:

What new signings? - We've only got one of themmsomerton said:I reckon he should ask for a postponement, give himself another week on the training ground to sort out the issues and get the new signings up to speed with the team.
So we will be missing no first teamers.
T Campbell started at Reading, as he has in every match, A Campbell yet to play. Neither is a current international.
Kanu played 30 L1 games last season.
Anderson has appeared in every game this season.0 -
Would have been idiotic to postpone the game, what's achieved by having it binned?

Jones gets the additional time to drill the players after a below par performance on Saturday. His post match reaction was so strong that it felt like that might have been on the table. That was about it though.Rothko said:Would have been idiotic to postpone the game, what's achieved by having it binned?

So that’s how Ronnie Moore gets all his inside scoops then…he’s actually the kit man!! 🤷🏻♂️😉AFKABartram said:Look forward to Mannion getting injured in training, AMB being away and Colin the Kit Man in goal2 -
Good decision. If there is not a quick response to that steeming pile of kaka performance at Reading, we can merrily wibble on about Jones' ability as a coach.0

Well that's what I've got with tickets for the Oval. Weather looking iffy so if it's raining at 2pm I'll be dashing to the Valley.Airman Brown said:

I subsequently clarified that Dixon was never going to be available for Saturday's game, because Jones said that he will play some U21 games before featuring in the first team squad.Gisappointed said:

Kanu played 30 L1 games last season.
Anderson has appeared in every game this season.
The new signing referred to is of course Allan Campbell and not Tyreece Campbell.
Therefore my point was that we shouldn't postpone because of missing first teamers, because Allan Campbell like Dixon has never featured (replying to the comment that we should postpone to give the new signings time to get up to speed).
Neither Anderson nor Kanu started on Saturday and I don't think Kanu has started in any league game this season.

Saturday afternoon at 3pm with a couple of subs unavailable with a regular week to prepare and a week to recover is always a far better option than a Tuesday 7:45pm breaking up the week, in this case probably between the Blackpool and Stevenage games at the end of the monthGisappointed said:

Kanu played 30 L1 games last season. but has barely featured so far this term
Anderson has appeared in every game this season. has featured barely any more than DK, we also now have Allan Campbell
NJ's definitely got this one right1 -

about 1/2 the L1 fixtures are off0

Well imo it would have, we are still one of the in-form teams, and Rotherham are out of form over the last 4. Now is as good a time as any to play them, and gives the players a chance to rectify that shower of shit at the weekend ASAP. Thankfully/hopefully Jones has had a similar mindset.killerandflash said:
It wouldn't have been a ridiculous decision to postpone. NINE out of the 12 games this weekend in our division have been postponed, so that's an awful lot of managers deciding that they'd rather not play with weakened squads, and I doubt it was because all of them had lost 3 star players. Or they wanted 2 weeks on the training ground.Braziliance said:
This is true, I am however of course kidding. Wood have found it ridiculous if we postponed.AFKABartram said:
We’ve done that previously and after two weeks of training they’ve looked like they barely know each other!Braziliance said:
Wow, what a joke. We should have utilised this opportunity to give our players a much needed rest, and familiarise the new signings with our tactics.Bedsaddick said:

All of them would have had to consider the pros and cons of playing.
Roll on the weekend.

7 off, 3 on from looking at the fixture list.

Only 12 were played over four international breaks last season. There were 36 postponements.1

It would of allowed us to have a denser fixture pile up later on in the season which gives us the chance to show characterRothko said:Would have been idiotic to postpone the game, what's achieved by having it binned?

It also would if been additional time for the players to dwell on a below par performance and allow negativity to foster, at least now they can go again Saturday and potentially move past it correcting their performance.Callumcafc said:
