L 3-2 vs Bradford City (H) - League Two - Sat 20th April, 3pm

I know I argue in simplistic terms, but swap DJ for Gordon since Jan (not including injuries) then we get in the play offs.

Apart from 1 goal lwhat has Gordon actually contributed?

Runs hard - Yes
Wins headers - No
Scores goals - No
Goal Assists - 1 maybe if any at all.

And I fear we will sign him next season, if we do we can forget making a serious go at it.

Would gladly pack knowles bags for him too.

Foulkes is so much better.

My thoughts on the season.

It has been more enjoyable to watch, for me anyway. The second half of last season has left me with mental scars, so that is something.

All in all, we have improved at set pieces and that has probably gained us the extra points to take us into the top half and not finish 16th again.

Miss too many chances and don’t keep enough clean sheets, next year could be better but I wouldn’t put any big bets on it personally.

Still got Wimbledon to go yet anyway, got tickets so will try and make a good day of it.

@Charityrunner i forgot the "fingers crossed: or “pray” emoji, in my original post :crossed_fingers::pray::wink:

Some other notes.

We saw, again, why Liam Gordon is playing in league two. A few times in each half he had gaping chances to either shoot on target or cross… failed every time.

Josh Gordon…. Wow. I don’t even move when he has the ball near the box or in a shooting position. I don’t react; it’s like driving along the road and seeing a lamppost - no sort of reaction or any emotion or hope. Got to be up there with our worst ever strikers for me. Is that 1 in 20 now?

Need to think seriously about a few players

Daniels - been awful last few months . Is this just bad form or did the injury take its toll and this is the new daniels . If daniels can’t prove himself pre season maybe it’s time to let go
Matt - guy need a zimmer frame . So slow and can’t last he is done . Hope Sadler thinks so
Stirk and Comley - both decent but the top teams in our league had cdm that offers so much more than both . Are they good enough to start for a play off team ?
Knowles- can run but can’t play football. An athlete not a football must go
Josh Gordon - if sadler signs him I cba with next season as it shows what sadlers happy with. Worst strikers that lavery as far as scoring goals matters which is is main job! Awful striker

You certainly get all the emotions watching a Walsall game. Was on a high when 2-0 up but I swear saw a change where Stirk dropped deeper into a ‘right let’s protect this’ move. Then from the minute they pulled one back nothing went for us, hit the post, missed penalty decisions etc etc.

Stayed behind for the players lap of honour, the deserved an extra clap. Got a couple of pictures of my son with a couple of players.

The under riding feeling is we have missed out , loads of games where we had the chances but we lost or drew. A couple of times it was the other way around.

Highlights

Agree, the best goal he scored was disallowed against NC. If it wasn’t for bad luck, we’d have no luck at all.

Not signing Cook pre season then :rofl::rofl:

Will say a lot about our intentions next season whether we sign up Matt and Gordon, or go after Faal or similar. He has picked Gordon virtually every game, I reckon he will be here next season.

If we had cook uptop over Gordon we’d be in the playoffs just saying
Couldn’t care less about him being a knob and I don’t get the cook hate. His an old score goalscorer and his dam good at it . He tore daniels and Dave apart , his better than any of our strikers
