I’m not one who has written him off, but McGuane can have no complaints if he is dropped from the squad again tonight (to make room for Stevens or Long on the bench if Moore is back). He was abject in his cameo on Tuesday night. A really disappointingly poor showing from him when you’d expect...

Am I unreasonable in feeling a little irked that we’ve not already got on the front foot and released one? The fact that we’ve sat in silence feels a little to me like we’re complicit in the kind of corporate, profiteering mentality which has led to decisions like this. I’m not saying that’s...

Wow. Didn’t expect that, and Evans is a wretch. But as we saw ourselves with Manning earlier in the season, you can understand it from a career advancement/financial perspective. I imagine Stevenage fans are (rightly) fuming with him though - and I can fully understand why Hopefully they don’t...

Look, I’d like him to stay. His form in 2024 has seen him go from arguably #3 ranking in the ‘I only want us to keep one’ mini-league also featuring Marcus Browne and Kyle Edwards to #1 by a mile. BUT let’s not get too dizzy. Up until March I’m not sure anyone would’ve lost any sleep if they...

Desperately hoping it’s not too serious with Moore and Cam and we’re holding them back for Tuesday. But then again Goodwin has been out with ‘a knock’ for weeks. Bennett’s ‘just a knock’ keeps him out too. Bad time for another mini-injury crisis Would bite your hand off for a point having...

🤣🤣 In my defence I literally said my preference would be to pick him over Bennett in his actual position (since I think our best team has Leigh in it) and stick to the system that has worked since the Bolton debacle. But fully agree that is harsh on JB if he’s fit and there’s an equally strong...

No argument from me (I’d also be against moving Murph for the record) - but I could see an argument defensively for using Leigh and Bennett in tandem Personally I’d pick Leigh over JB, hope that being dropped after the Bolton debacle (and the praise he rightly got for his more restrained...

As I said when the team was announced on Saturday - I still feel like our best 11 has Greg Leigh in it somewhere. And I agree against the calibre of winger P’boro have it seems entirely plausible that we need an athlete like him on the pitch. (There’s an argument to drop Dale to the bench...

I have some sympathy for Rodrigues and Goodrham today. The pitch is terrible and they are getting some awful treatment. I don’t think either of them have been near the ball without being blatantly fouled all half. It’s shocking and entirely cynical. Great goal from Sparky too - but as others...

If Brannagan is out it makes the conversation around McGuane a lot more interesting too…

Given our injury record this season, there’s absolutely no chance that’s ’just a precaution’ is it. Our luck with injuries this season is rotten

Shame for Bennett - but I’m not unhappy to have Leigh back in. I still feel like our best 11 has him in it somewhere. I’m not writing Goodwin off at all. But the fact that we needed another striker option to rotate with/help Harris in August, and we’re now at April and thinking ‘maybe Marcus...

Without wanting to comment on whether it was a ‘good’ purchase or not - didn’t basically EVERY Cheltenham fan say he’s a little brittle and hard to get on the pitch but very good when he plays? I feel like basically everyone of their fans commenting on his sale said it

Such a shame as I still think he’s a super player at L1 level. Unfortunately he just wasn’t fit and only gave a couple of glimpses (mostly Blackpool away 2nd half) of what he is capable of. Suspect he’ll go to another L1 team next season, fully fit, and get back to his best, making this loan...

Are we the opposite end of the ground to last season?! Completely lost my bearings (although I can’t pretend anything other than Negru’s injury stood out as memorable from my last trip here)! But I’m sure I remember the big stand being on the right side last year!

He’s got a ready-made reason to “rest” Rodrigues with no questions asked too after RR pulled up started hobbling around soon before he gave the ball away for the fourth goal. Even if he’s fine, Des can say he took a knock on Tuesday. (Not saying anything or casting any aspersions on RR’s...

Evans talking about his team’s chances of making the playoffs, listing all the rival teams/their qualities and doesn’t even mention us. Says it all. He thinks we’re done after this…

I’ve got no idea where any of our subs are supposed to be playing. Like where are Bodes and Henry? How have they been positioned to impact the game. This is just a mess

This is a shambles. Wigan 0-7 at home vibes in how one-sided it’s been.

That’s bad luck - but how many chances do we need to clear the ball, make a challenge or prevent that. You hate to say it, but this drubbing has been coming for a while. We’ve just not been good for several months.
