It will be a lot less close to Nil once the club is sold and some competent senior management are brought in. The club can be seen as capable of developing young talented players and this would be improved with better coaches manager,scouting sports science. Ultimately we need to get the culture bandwagon going again like we diid ten year ago. Investors will have high belief that thy can turn it around. That’s their ego challenge.

He isn’t good enough.

I thought he did well today. Added a bit of composure and nouse and I was pleased to see her was still quick enough and mobile. He also passed the ball around quite cleverly. Most of all he looked a proper CDM and will enable Braybrooke page and Alves etc to do what they do best. A good debut.

Wow. Great play by Alves on the turn and even better by Riis. I do believe we have found a striker at last.

That would be my choice too.

I agree totally. I’m sure we came very close to losing him this time. We do operate a bit of herd mentality on here and get jumped on when people have a different opinion. We get caught up on phrases like pure profit. I’d like to keep young diamonds like this as long as possible as they are the sort that can have the highest trajectory, galvanise supporters and propel us back up the leagues. Once gone home grown players can’t be replaced by clubs like us. We should value them higher ourselves.

They weren’t the only ones to have seen that potential.

I agree with you especially the last part. It’s a bit early to tell yet. How many times have we celebrated or sobbed at the end of the transfer window only to reverse our opinions a few months later. Hope that this lot will have more hits than misses. Some will have been signed to be starters and some to fill the squad but let’s hope we get some pleasant surprises!

Right back in the 63 cup final and key player in the ice kings that year.

My prayers have been answered.

Yep guilty. Apologies young McFarlane

Mcarthy and jj have looked very good tonight. We look so much better down both flanks. More learning for Russ.

I added page but you’re right jj. Thanks for being the third to point that out.

He look like quality every time he gets the ball. Seems like his pace and confidence is fully back after those dark days. Chuffed for him. Good Groby lad.

I was just about add that. All three must be the first names on the team sheet now unless they need resting. Put our current most expensive signing in the skipp.

Alves and Braybrooke are the standouts. Wonder which one will make way once out top signing is back from suspension?

Surely that was a corner. The ball definitely got a touch from the keeper.

That was shocking. Got to stop this fxxking around at the back. Every team know that’s our weakness. Ffs

Overall I’m ok with the lineup. If he continues to play Braybrooke Alves and page I will be happy though I’d like to see aluko feature. Think this could be our first win tonight. 2-1. Page and Braybrooke.

We never learn.

Welcome Emil. Hoping you will score us all the way to promotion.

And the total lack of any footballing nouse or ability of JR and the rest of the management team.

Closely followed by braybrook and Alves with page rapidly making up ground. I think aluko deserves a mention too as looks a real talent to me. All very promising and they will only get better with game time.

I really hope so. The fact that the youngsters have shown that they shine gives me hope. If we nurture that I can see some improvement coming but we really need to add the goals somehow. Someone may step up or it comes collectively as their confidence increases.

We gained some real insights from the Ipswich game and didn’t implement them. That said at least he has realised that Braybrook and page are starters.
