He needs to be handed a chance after that performance. He was up against some players who were more technically gifted than he'll be used too and he was the best player on the pitch. You've got your wish, you're heading out the competition.

Yeah i think it's our set up that is the problem. We've got a couple of donkeys up front - ok they can score a goal, but just aint got any pace. They are more your type of players that should be behind your striker ie such as Coyle....or stick the donkey's in defence, I don't joke either on that one.

I see Coyle is a winger, well doubt he will dislodge Jackson from his position unless he gets injured and Graham is our star player, so no chance there. Mind you the donkeys stuck in three goals against Woking, so guess Coyle might have to wait a bit longer unless he puts him in midfield or sticks him down the other wing and we leave out Medley.

Coyle played upfront tonight, mate. You had a lad called Eccles on the right wing, he was another lad that was standing out. We have the same problem upfront, there's no pace whatsoever and somebody like Coyle would bang them in with the service he'd get here.

I'll try and keep more of an eye on him, what your saying makes sense, it just depends if the gaffer can get away from his donkey front two. I've said to our lot time and time again the two up front are too slow. It's different in L2 but at L1 level you need some sort of pace. Problem is Graham is like a rocket, but by the time he whips the ball in the box, no fooker is there, so he ends up putting it away himself.
 
Now you see why I get annoyed when the FA start preaching about kick out racism, they need to get their own house in order. UEFA is another one, and FIFA well you couldn't get any more bent than that lot. All they do is paper over their own cracks when they start promoting kick racism out, how many times have we seen this fail now and again another example of old dinosaurs in control.
Yeh mate how many times have we heard the same **** regarding racism in football its so many times you hear it now and its totally ineffective and worse half hearted /for show.

Being racist... I mean Genuinely fully racist and hating a whole section of your own species based in the shade of ones skin or the language you speak or the culture you embrace is the most nonsensical fuking thing you can imagine in a world and species so experienced as we are.

Itll never fuking change sadly.

....and to think, some have said the FA are a bunch of old dinosaurs and a bit of an old boys social club.

I know it’s only a word, but **** me, he was literally there to talk about diversity <laugh>

Its like a parody init, if someone handed you the script you'd say it was too obvious ffs<laugh><doh>

10 EFL clubs struggling to pay wages this month.

It don't surprise me, shame they didn't list the 10 clubs. I'm expecting the Gills to be in or near it. What they all need to remember, there is a lot of Prem players that have come through the non league, L1 and L2 structure. The Gills for example, Egan and Gazzaniga just to name two, Gazza never had a penny to his name, when Hessy brought the lad in. Steve Bruce as a manager started out at the Gills. If they let these clubs go under it will destroy the very foundation football is built on, let alone the loss to the local communities.

I loved the phrase that I heard on the news, about the old dinosaurs, 'male, pale and stale.' - and it's right, it's the same problem time and time again, you can sniff it out a mile off.
