Have heard the same thing tonight.

Youth team product

He did but that didn't go too well. He did go to Welling and avaraged roughly a goal every other game in a struggling side in Conference South.

Too Late? According to the daily record, he has signed for Kilmarnock

It sounds like Murray is much more of a target man to play alongside Forster whereas I think Fleetwood is a similar style of forward to Forster. Crewe were prepared to pay £150k for the less than prolific target man Damien Spencer from Cheltneham. I think there is even more of a premium on...

The difference with Revell is that he is not a natural target man and is not at his best with his back to goal - the way he was asked to play on Saturday. As I said on another thread, the Revell\Forster partnership is great for Revell (look at the assists Forster has provided) but is not so good...

Gatting has never had an experienced head playing alongside him. Forster is great at talking people through a game and pointing out what they should be doing. I'm still hoping that one of our un-named transfer targets is a strong hold up type of player that Gatting can learn from. If this type...

The truth of the matter is we do not have the players in the team to make either system work properly. If we can find a forward that can hold the ball up, I think 442 will prevail.

I think the problem with our variation of the diamond is that the point of the diamond is far too advanced - we end up playing 4-3-3. Cox, Robinson and Loft have all played the same way - more like a striker that drops into midfield when we lose the ball. For it to achieve success, the point...

Revell is a good complimentary striker but needs to play with a stong player that can hold the ball up well. Forster, Revell and Robinson would all look better with this type of player. He's averaging a goal every 4 appearances for us and that includes games where he has come on as sub or...

I don't think it is that Wilkins doesn't rate Ravell that much. I think the problem is that Ravell is no more than average at holding the ball up consistently due to his lack of bulk. This reduces the ability to link the play back into midfield and often results in us playing long ball football...

He did score 20+ goals at Southend in the 03/04 season although that was League 2.

Historically though, most young keepers are given a few meaningless games at the end of the season to launch their careers. Not many are pitched in to games with one of their nearest rivals while still facing the outside chance of getting sucked back into the relegation battle. I will be...

I agree but I don't think the manager does. We are not far removed from losing 6 games on the bounce and we are just regaining our confidence. I don't think that is the ideal time to play a complete rookie. If this injury to Kuipers was to occur in March with us on say 51 points, I think...

Probably to do with the fact that Flinders has made 40 senior appearances at either this level or above compared to Sullivan's 0. The other thing that might come into the equation is that I think Richard Martin signed a year long loan with Dorchester. Although he has returned to the club, I'm...

So was I until my mate pointed out they were the same colours as the Legal and General logo.

Whilst I think Hammond's sentiments are admirable, I think Wilkins needs to have a look at himself as well. Wilkins has to go back to basic sooner rather than later from an attacking point of view. I'm a bit fed up with his comments after several games that the players are not "paying attention...

Apart from the size of the fee - it does tie up with this thread http://85.234.132.19/showthread.php?s=&threadid=97145

Contract terminated at Plymouth - the plot thickens!

I don't think that Butters is playing that badly and we do badly need his experience but I do think age is creeping up fast. I certainly would not drop him at the moment and personally, I'm glad to see the back of Santos. I do think we need to be on the look out for Butters successor though...
