Agree, 28, but the only way it might be worse would be if McMarmite, with all his tackling prowess, was designated the ‘last man’ on the half way line with the task of stopping to a breakaway!

Predicted a hard fought draw & so it proved - happy with a point.
thought there would have been another 2 minutes extra to be added for their time wasting at the end. i too was happy with a point. we might have been the better footballing side but they all put everything into their game and deserved something out of it. main plus was the two new lads who will get better after training with the rest.

I would prefer we played a 'keeper further back myself.

Re: vs Bristol Rovers thread.

Well, to say I am surprised by some of the comments on here, is astounding. Apart from the free kick in the dying seconds of the game, did Bristol Rovers threaten and that was the only time I felt nervous about the team actually losing. Apart from that, how many saves did Maxted have to make, maybe one. Both the new guys played exceptionally well in my opinion and i foresee exciting times ahead for the remainder of the season. In fact, the whole team played well, the only blip was not sticking the ball in the net, but as others have said, 1 point is better than none. Referee and his assistants were totally inept, the one on the EW stand side could not keep up with play at all! Short corner routine were a waste of time, especially when Ross Sykes is in the box. Onwards and upwards till the end of the season now.

I’m also baffled by your response. Which comments - be specific - do you find astounding ?

No-one has yet congratulated Jonny Maxted for keeping a clean sheet in such miserable conditions for a Goalkeeper !... Hope there are more to come !.

Incidentally, perhaps being Captain allows Der Wundekinde the luxury of choosing to take all Corners and Free-kicks himself !.. mostly to no avail !. ( Just thinking aloud ! ).

Re: vs Bristol Rovers thread.

Thought Maxted did very well those conditions were atrocious,probably contributed a bit to the game.

He doesn't need to be captain to have exclusivity though does he ? Always has ... always will.

Re: vs Bristol Rovers thread.

Well clearly the Manager !
However wouldn't you think we'd change things around every now and then ?
It's not like there aren't options - Barlaser Clark immediately come to mind.
