up the reds!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad I brought extra layers. It may be warm at pitch level, but it's bloody freezing up here in the top of the stand!!!

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

With current financial situation at the club, I can't just get my head round the Kevin Long situation. His services were retained for the rest of the season at the end of January, It's now the middle of March and he hasn't had a kick. I appreciate that Hessey is playing really well alongside Edwards, but why spend money the club clearly hasn't got on a someone else's player just to have him sat on the bench?

Loaning players and then not playing them seems a bit of a waste of money to me. And where has Owens dissapeared to again?

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

Ill be amazed if we are paying anything for him mate.

Burnley arent exactly skint after last seasons premier league exploits.

He has been injured twice since he has been back, which is why owens was on the bench as hes a center half.

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

If the start of the season is anything to go by, Hess will disappear after 10 good games. Then, in comes Big Kev. :)

I agree that we have too many players for our current financial state, but we only have three centre-halves who have had any meaningful playing time in the league (Edwards, Hessey and Long). It would make more sense to release Smyth & Owens than to fail to take up the chance to loan the proven Long for the rest of the season, even if he does have to bench it while injured or others are in good form.

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

Bit unfair on Hessey, he has been immense these last few games.


Good point about the 3 recognised center backs.

No sense to release Smyth, as Leam is crocked, again :(

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

For what it's worth, I agree with Shaker.

Let's not forget that Phil Edwards is a booking from a two match ban. Then the strength in depth will show.

Smyth has been out on loan, impressed and won a place on the bench. Maybe Owens will have to do the same???

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

Teams are out.

Come on Stanley!

Re: Gillingham Thread
 

In that case be very amazed :D
