    You’re not usually one to keep quiet, is it possible that you’re full of **** and the club aren’t in the wrong this time.

    No huge fan of Pritch and certainly not this behaviour but good luck to him elsewhere.

    Seems the club aren't interested in building around him.

    Signings just became a little more urgent.

    I'd be content with an experienced CM and a quality LB on loan to cover the raft of injuries we've got there. Wouldn't mind a CF, depends who it is.

    I feel like a broken record but I just want us to give Rusyn a run. This new tactic (if you can call it that) of quickly and regularly passing the ball forward to the CF on the deck and down the channels, with Clarke staying up top to link up with him will suit him down to the ground.

    We shouldnt be building around him

    Rusyn to me looks worthy of persevering with, always looking for the ball and not hiding. He makes decent runs to the channels, not saying he’s the world’s best but deserves a run at it.

    Agreed. Really hopeful for what comes over the next couple of days. If not a great deal I think there is far more in the squad than we have seen. Hoping Beale can get it out of them.

    Just seen the table. Really surprised me to see we are out of the play-offs by virtue of goal difference.

    Imagine what a run of good results would do. Feeling positive.

    He's like a Ukrainian Gooch, he's got that terrier attitude. One of the best leaps I've ever seen as well some of the headers he wins are ridiculous.

    Give him a run in the team, play the ball into him and have another player in a 5 metre radius for him to work with and I think he'll do well.

    Mate there was a gadgie and his American lass walking ower the bridge after the game complaining that he leaps too early. I said **** all to them but I was bemused. He’s about 5’10” and beating big centre half’s in the air. If we got used to him doing it we could gamble on the run behind.

    Leaps too early? His timing is superb. He's got no right to win any headers against giant CBs but he manages it.

    I nar I couldn’t be arsed to say anything they weren’t talking to me. It was at that point I realised I’m not as thick as I think I am tactically. :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    We get that you don't like speakman, and like to blame him for a lot of stuff. But Pritchard had the choice to play for the team he is signed a contract for, and he choose to not play, it's a disgraceful attitude

    Ask the best player in the world at the minute who was at the match today if he thinks what Pritchard has done is professional, bet my house he would say no.

    You're right no chance O'Nien would stand for that.

    **** maybe I'll get Ballard to stand behind him just in case. Blokes like a brick wall come to life.
