we need someone to hit the back of the nett and not miss chance after chance

There goes the voice of reason at last !...well said Mab !.


But are you suggesting there is actually someone who misses chance after chance ?...;)

I'd start billy on the bench for a game play Edwards and Mcarten up front, maybe some bench time will encourage him to work harder and score

the problem is we don,t miss chance after chance, we just don,t make chances. build up play too slow and by the time we get to their box they have so many defenders back the chance will be gone. when your captain reeives the ball and his first movement is usually look behind him for a pass you,re in big trouble for me.
 
That has merit in my book.

Apart from that one accurate free-kick, From what we have witnessed lately, do you honestly think McCartan deserves a place in the team ?.
I am so disappointed that Shay has, in my opinion, failed to live up to the promise he showed
In his early days at The Crown, and fails to use his talents to their maximum potential !.
Both FA19 and I have often said that he has the skills to run at defenders with pace whilst controlling the ball, but this seldom if ever is seen this season. Perhaps he is not altogether physically fit ?, but at present his efforts leave much to be desired.
Which begs the question Cashy...who , if anyone, is going to score the goals which the Reds so desperately need at this point in the season ?.

As Sir Bobby Robson's famous paradigm describes it ....

SCORE GOALS = SUCCESS A ND POTENTIAL PROMOTION.
NO GOALS SCORED = CERTAIN FAILURE AND RELEGATION.

Simple ?....yes! But oh so true !

Shay looks a better player than billy atm in my eyes
 
Good news, hope the lad can deliver.
But Stanley need players on both wings capable of getting past defenders, with either skill or pace, and getting crosses in.
 
So with the new lad that adds even more spice to Saturdays selection. There'll be a few players in their shirts and ties not even making the bench ...............
 
Haven't we got an embarrassment of riches at the moment? The players we have, and strength in depth is frightening. When it all clicks tomorrow night I actually fear for the net makers of Mansfield.
