    busy in Jan ? why Johnson did not do enough in the summer as far as i'm concerned, and bring back Wyke ! what the hell is going on at this club. Taylor and Marquis here in Jan for starters or Kyril please leave this club.

    Minimum three - CB, CM, CF. I worry that we'll think that CB is good enough.

    Edit: if we want a top two side without the worry. If we are ok with 3-8 then we are fine as we are.

    Got this far and have to throw my tuppence worth in.

    Not happy with our recent form, but what fan, player or coach would be.
    That said lets put things into perspective. Lot's of injuries and still in touch with top by 2 points.

    We looked like a team that could walk it before all the injuries, at least we are still a team competing at the top with them.
    Sure we look poor at times, but so do all the other teams around us.

    Plymouth and Wycombe have lost 3 and 2 of their last 5 respectively.
    And Rotherham and Wigan are due losses.
    If we beat Morecambe Tuesday we could be top.

    As frustrating as it seems atm there is light at the end of the tunnel.
    Home games, players returning from injury, and a transfer window looming, (hopefully as good as the last one).

    We were unlucky in this game, woodwork hit 2 or 3 times.
    Poor first half but only on a par with Oxford, not worse.
    Better side second half.
    Team earlier in the season probably would have won it.

    As for LJ.
    No i don't want him gone.
    I still think we can do it.
    I do have doubts on occasions.
    Who knows, lose the next two and the writing could be on the wall.
    That said, it may be too late for him now after his outburst.
    I won't comment on that or the fan as I don't know the facts.

    There are some comments about it in this link.

    I'm sure he watched a different Wyke, in fact I know he did as the Wyke monty watched we sold!

    As opposed to the one we all watched that ****ed off on a free after he turned down a contract offer.

    Cannot comment about the match yesterday. 1st one of the season missed as I was thru the dark side on my works Xmas day/night out. I asked for this date because we didnt have a home game. B*stards for rearranging it when I was already committed to being somewhere else :emoticon-0102-bigsm.
    My son said we deserved it on 2nd half showing.
    I still believe we will go up automatically

    Was wondering if the poor fooker had a cardiac, know he collapsed.
    Could be end of his career, hopefully not.

    Seems to be a lot of heart attacks an seizures etc in young fit peeps since the vaccine roll out :rolleyes:
    36 year old lad at work buried yesterday through one sadly.

    <laugh><laugh><laugh> He’s an idiot. But he never breaks the rules. I mean he wants us to sign a player who won’t play again this season. po He won’t play ever!

    But he always makes people laugh with his inane (maybe there’s an “s” missing from that word!!) ramblings!!

    The guy who he apparently gave 2 fingers to directly (hmm) wants Neil Warnock because we need someone to “shout at the players”

    Management really is that easy

    I actually thought we were decent yday. Second half anyway. Much more on the front foot. Must win Tuesday night to get the feel good back.

    Reet I’ve sobered up and not as wound up as I was yesterday. I still think we were crap but I wouldn’t be sacking a manager that’s got us 2 points off top although I am worried about why we’ve turned to **** football after playing so well.

    Looking at where we are in the table and the chance to go top on Tuesday night, I still have no feel good at the moment, bizarre.
