Maybe Wheatley could be our secret weapon after all? Let’s face it, with 2 red cards for Crewe and their form almost as terrible as ours, it might be the perfect game to bring on fresh legs.
The other irony is that Fleetwood did the double over us and are playing Bradford.
Personally, I think we’ll still mess it up, but Sadler can’t say that he hasn’t got the players because he clearly has!
He doesn’t ask questions,full stop! He makes statements and repeats what he’s just been told. I just don’t rate him, regardless of whether his hands are tied or not!
Nailed it..said he’d do it yesterday and was proved right. What @MoroccoMole said gives more credence to some of the omissions of certain players. All is not well on HMS Piss the League
R Graydon to score late for Fleetwood to beat Bradford
Walsall losing to Crewe before Stokie Josh Gordon, Ellis Harrison (ex Vale) and then a towering header from Donervon Daniels (thrown up front in the dying seconds) wins us promotion!!!
I would also like to see Darren Byfield as gaffer, to link it back to the Reading play off final in Cardiff.
After our winning goal, the suited and booted Daza Byfield goes full David Pleat at the end of the game, running across the pitch, fists clenched in jubilation, behaving like a mad thing in front of the adoring away contingent.
As I understood it, before Flynn was dismissed Boycott had called the players to ascertain mood. Now I have no idea if that is true, but if it is how has this gone unnoticed?
Apart from the barmy contract extension of course.
I always assumed they were more attacking players that track back (in a good system) that is why you play an extra centre back, right? I think this is even more so in modern formations. Not that there is much modern about how we play.
I think the point is, Adomah looks at his best out wide. Never a centre forward, just wasting his talents. I still haven’t recovered from his miss in the last minute v Leicester
Both absolutely barmy. Contract extension of that length when we’d achieved nothing at the point. Bet his agent was using other clubs checking his availability to get that done. It’s been shown to be naive. If BB did that before sacking flynn then surely he’s done that now?. Something is not right behind the scenes me thinks
Just read this that someone has posted on Facebook :
Speaking as someone invited to the game by my son’s local football club….
First of all we were told my son would have an hour of training on the pitch but no, he trained on the bit of astroturf laid out on the car park outside the ground…
Secondly, massive confusion around our group as we were told our seats were in the away stand. With a son who has autism this caused a lot of distress and unnecessary panic among us. This was all sorted out eventually but isn’t something we planned on having to worry about.
Thirdly, how this club is where they are in the league after this performance I have no idea. One of the worst performances I have ever seen at home from a club in any league. I only after the game checked where the opponents were in the league. The small amount of supporters Accrington Stanley bought were singing loud all game long.
Many of us in our ‘invited’ group will not be returning if offered again. None of us were given a good impression of the club, and the performance on the pitch was embarrassing.
That is what Sadler said at the time, “Albert’s delivery is second to none. I think he has possibly got the best delivery in the Championship, let alone in League Two.” At the time he was looking to replace Tom Knowles and Joe Foulkes.
“There were some options that I had in that right wing-back spot that I was considering but then Albert came in and completely changed all of that with the way he’s gone about things, the person that he is, the way he conducts himself around the group and most importantly what he does on the grass,” said Saddlers head coach Mat Sadler.
“His professionalism and dedication to keep playing and put himself as the best athlete he can be is unquestionable and that delivery and quality in the final third will be a real force for us this season."
Yesterday, Adomah was playing what I used to call “Inside Left”. In the days of the W formation he would have been number 10, Matt number 9, and George Hall was “Inside right” the number 8. Of course in the old days there would have specialist wingers on both sides providing crosses.
