Just checked. It was 20July 2919. 1-3 .Ings got 2 Vokins got 1. Bodin scored for PNE. The power of the inter web v my memory. No contest.

 

Many cities and towns have been rejuvenated by extensive pedestrianisation.

Safe journey to those venturing up, usually do a match blog the day after although it will be late Thursday having actually having to go into work

 

Alright mate. What do you think is the cause of your slump?

 

Played three decent teams WBA were good on the day and personal view Leicester and Ipswich could both go up, played well until went 1 down at Leicester, Ipswich conceded a poor second goal they took their chances we didn't.
Budget wise can't compete with someteams main objective 50 points and beating Blackburn home and away

 

Fair enough. What are your main strengths and weaknesses?

 

Passing game is slow and not sure Lowe has a plan B can lack pace at the back also left wing back a weakness

 

Snap!

 

Is RM involved?
He's trying to rejuvenate us with pedestrianisation

 

Cheers. Is that Brady?

 

Couple of things I noticed from watching Hull highlights again ...

Bedders got done for pace a couple of times (When's Jack back?)
Smallbone is getting into good places in or near 18yd area and looks a cool finisher. There's more goals in him

 

You got it

 

Luckily for you guys then it looks like Walker-Peters will be switching to the left, since Manning is suspended.

So our right hand side won't be quite the threat it usually is.

 

Is it Russball or Russbored?

 

I don't care as long as it is Russwins.

 

didn't realise Manning is suspended for this one. KWP at LB with Holgate or Bree at RB I would think then.

 

Is your right back quick? (He'll need to be).

 

Potts is for a big lad

 

Presuming Sulemana plays here, but he's absolute lightning. A bit "60 minutes only", and the end product is a bit of guesswork, but your lad will have his work cut out trying to keep up.

 

I have mentioned a few times about Smallbone arriving in the box at the right time for crosses pulled back from the byline and if he stays injury free I can see him getting close to double figures, unless I have just cursed him.
Another thing from the Hull game, just from the highlights, is the number of times that Downes was also getting into the Hull box, not only setting up the winner but the side foot shot their keeper saved from Smallbone.
I also think RM got the first substitutions right. Against Rotherham he took off 3 which really affected our momentum. This time just 2 which didn’t disrupt the team at all but improved our momentum going into the final quarter.
