Hope Bowyer is sensible enough to give Ben Amos and the kids a full 90 min tonight. The first team should all be at home watching EastEnders.
Team for tonight. I have been sneaking around Sparrows Lane. Amos Wiredu, Ossy Sarr, Stevenson Field, Forster- Caskey, Morgan, Lapslie, Aneke, Bonne Subs no idea.
Big night for George Tucudean https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/aug/13/celtic-cluj-champions-league-qualifier-match-report
Good honest comments from Bowyer after last night’s game, saying that apart from Amos & Sarr the rest had let themselves down. I wonder if Lapslie & Morgan have pushed themselves towards a loan with their performances? Personally I think the latter will be the better player in the long term. How did Bonne play last night ?
They missed the chance to push their first team credentials, so it's disappointing. You would hope JFC would be getting back to the player he was. His penalty was like a pass back.
yeah, i watched a live stream of it. the penalty was awful - hardly any run up and then no power. goalkeeper could walk to pick the ball up where JFC placed it.
Not a good night for us. FGR played with some reserves too, took us to penalties and won. Some of the players who performed poorly last night could do with some more competetive matches, and won't get them thanks to that. Let's face it, that was a winnable tie, and we contrived to get knocked out. Fair play to FGR, but that was a poor result and apparently a dire performance, something Bow has also highlighted. At what point do we start trying to progress in a cup competition?
JFC needed to play well to get back into the first team... not even sure he'll be on the subs bench after last night.
Bowyer didn’t pull any punches after the game about Lewis Page, more or less hanging both the player & the physio our to dry. His frustration is justifiable- a mere 27 appearances in over 2 years for a club run on a shoestring. I agree with Bowyer’s comment that there must be an underlying reason why Page is never fit. I was at Luton away the day he went off injured ...how long ago was that
Didn't he get injured at Welling in pre season this time round?... after about 10 minutes? or was it one of the games in Spain?
