Konsa should drop back to defence IMO. I'd rather him as a defender who fills in at midfield if needed rather than the other way around.
Well then Konsa will drop back, and Johnson will play alongside him, especially if Lennon is injured as he seems to be. KR shouldn't take into account the fans' booing Johnson, he has to pick the best team, and that would include Johnson.
Guys, please. Don't be so reckless when boo'ing. It can act as a distraction to players and opposition goalkeepers, but guaranteed to get the loudest cheer of the day.
The key with booing is to pick your moment. You have to get the other 10,451 fans in the stadium to be completely silent when you do it. Now, did I tell you about my meeting with Richard Murray ?
Ok. I was in the Millennium Lounge, discussing Sqwarka with Kevin SeriouslyAnal. I had guzzled 10 pints already, but was timing my slash for when Katrien also went to the Bogs. It would jog her memory. I had just finished wiping some grease stains down my T shirt as you do when this vaguely familiar bloke who looks a bit like Yoda approached me. "Allo Reams, I really love your site" said my old mucker Richard Murray. "Wot, even the 700 threads I started threatening to kill you?" I replied. "Yep, all of it, especially Colin's transfer rumours and Nigel's relationship with his leaf blower" Muzza replied. At this point "Karlo" Robinson rushed in for our scheduled meeting. I told him about a Hearts player who I watched on North Wales TV after my favourite programme Pet Rescue, plus 3 players I rate at Bournemouth.
My view on Sat- very lucky to get a point, two really poor teams, but they created lots of chances, Morrison missing that 1on1 and the two headers near the end, got lucky they missed them. Our disallowed goal apart we never created anything. Ref was awful (as per) and so were our two CB's who must of misjudged about 5 long balls that bounced over their heads during the game. How they managed a clean sheet is down to Wall's awful finishing I really worry about our left hand side, it's so weak. Didn't see enough of Page, but Chicko is crap, that Jay Desilva is Conor McAleny mark 2, crap Same old problems really from start of season. No creativity P.S Watt can't play the lone striker role cos he doesn't work hard enough, so hope injury to big Josh is OK
Chicksen was seemingly signed as a back up but has had to play more than anticipated. That's my assumption anyway. DaSilva will need a bit of time to settle - think I'm right in saying this is his first loan and exposure to first team football. Give him a few weeks and revisit early opinions.
There is so much dead wood still on the pay roll that could be flogged off to raise funds for new players. Why are we subsidising Fatekole to play for St Truiden ? Even Thomas Driesen could spot he is finished. Ditto Naby Sarr, El Hadji Ba, Ceballos, Roger Johnson, etc
Magennis is saying his injury is probably not as bad as was first feared. Just as well, we don't have any cover for him at all. KR should start to give Umerah a bit of game time. Whenever I saw him he always played on the shoulder, although I don't know how he's progressed recently. If he's not in the squad to play why is he there at all? He must be about 20 now.
A whiff of scandal over the Renewal bid to buy the land surrounding The Den. Renewal's charitable company, Surrey Canal, Sports Foundation, of which Sir Steve Bullock is a director, were awarded a £500,000 grant of public money by Lewisham Council, of which Sir Steve is Mayor. This grant was largely based on their often-repeated claims to have a funding deal with Sport England. These claims are now exposed as a load of lies. Bullock did declare an interest at the beginning, but his name has been widely used to advertise this fictional deal. My old drinking mate Liam Curran was the only one to raise doubts about the deal at council meetings, but his lone voice was talked down. Watch this space.
What makes this so so bad, is that the the £500k seems to have been used up on "admin costs". Steve Bullock gives £500k of the taxpayers money to Surrey Canal Sports Foundation. Surrey canal Sports Foundation pay Steve Bullock and his cronies £500k to administer said £500k. Every ones a winner He does have friends in high places please log in to view this image
