stanley v morecambe thread

Yonmon,
Strikers plural? Bickerstaff maybe, but who is the other?

What I was trying to point out to KJ , in a succinct manner Greger was .. YES he is poor.and . YES ... he is not getting the service !..
However, there are other 'strikers' in the squad who we both know to be a trifle suspect when it comes to scoring goals.. Two of which, along with others have just made my afternoon a bit of a misery sad to say !..(or am I, in my dotage, getting more hard to please as the season plods on it''s not so merry way ?.).
 
Re: Coleman out

Also, MASSIVE shout out to Jase and the gang for organising the pre-match display and making a great noise :)

:)
 
Going by his history, he must be worth a few goals at least...the fact he's not getting them would have to be a reflection on the way the other players are performing...tho his date of birth suggests he might be a disaster...

Unfortunately, he just doesn't look that interested to me - just my opinion obviously

I totally agree with your opinion young lady !. .... another of his attributes (?) Seems to be an inherent skill in disappearing from view for periods in a game , or so it appears to my eye . Inconspicuous is not an unreasonable word to describe him on these occasions .. just my opinion naturally !.
This however is not a desirable element one would wish to see in one of the main strikers in a struggling team much indeed of points ... perhaps it's time for a Sports Psychologist to revitalise and remotivate ourJacob to unleash his hidden powers ?... any offers ?.
( And while he's at it,find a way to convince the entire team that performing for 90 minutes like they managed to do for the last 10 today must bring its rewards !).

ON STANLEY !..ON TO GREATER THINGS !

While I agree that he had a poor game, I don’t think that is where the problem lies. He was chasing all afternoon, but lost every duel. That might suggest lack of interest, of course, but the service, if you could call it that, was more suited to a 6’4 player, expert at holding the ball up.

Jack Nolan, as much as I enjoy watching him when we occasionally play well, has no judgment at all, cross or shoot, and very rarely looks for the front man unless it is with a 40 yards cross from the Centre circle. And Tommy Leigh is after all a very poor passer. Better strikers than Bickerstaff would struggle to do anything with that kind of service.
 
So we are all agreed then ......young Jake was a very poor loan signing in the January window. He doesn't suit our style of play, can't hold up or win the ball, can't get on the end of crosses, never gets in the box, is slow, can't head the ball...........

Young Shipley, a good loan signing and left wing back ....came on and showed him how it can be done for the last 20 minutes........

And here's me trying my hardest to give Jacob the gentle letdown whilst waiting in the wings was a hatchet man par excellence !.
Don't think you missed one ' get Jake' -ism CG !. Well done !.
