    When SOD first came in he said one of our problems was putting square pegs in round holes. So what does he do again today? Play O'Connor at LCB when he is a RB.... First mistake. Another was experience within the team. Cuningham has looked a bit off form this season so for the next few games Shorey deserve a chance otherwise he's a waste of money. I really want to see Parish play in a competitive game. Fielding hasn't lived up to expectation, Parish had none and looks more relaxed than fielding. Some may not rate him, I don't know why, But Elliott needs to be starting, Maybe he didn't because of all the travelling he has done recently but that didn't stop SOD picking him last season against forest, Which we won 2-0 and he scored. IMO the team needs changing. I'm happy with JET and Baldock updront, they will score us goals this season, Today hopefully was a 1 off.

    For the Shrewsbury game I hope we see

    Parish
    Moloney Flint Williams Shorey
    Elliott
    McLaughlin Reid Bryan
    JET
    Baldock​

    Wagstaff is ok but I want to see a bit more of McLaughlin, Shrewsbury would be the best game to try him. To be fair ROD what did Williams do to be dropped? He is a LCB and in fact our only one.

    He didn't do anything wrong he was injured, but IMO O'Connor is better.

    Then put him at RB sorry ROD he isn't a CB, It's ok for him to fit in there when needed but that's not his position.

    That's the idea lets change the team again, then we can blame SoD for tinkering. I don't want to start with McLaughin on Tuesday nothing against him his only competitive game time he's played was today. Its not an easy game to win your first game this season, and the Shrews (you have no idea how much I hate them now because of one fan) will not come and let us walk over them.
    **** sake this season teams are looking at us as easy targets, lets have some continuity in the team. And remind JET he doesn't need to waltz the ball through its easier to pass to his team mates. I love watching him on form but today I was wanting him off at half time. I want players who want to win as a team not on their own.

    'What's O'Connor and Wagstaff done wrong to be dropped?'

    O'Connor is not a central defender and it shows. Why wasn't he wanted at his previous club.
    To be fair I'm not sure Williams is the answer yet either. Yeh, neither are special but they're SOD's signings so we're struggling.

    Wagstaffe is a busy player but actually contributes F A.
    Players like Pack,Marv, Reid and Bryan contribute - Wagstaffe flatters to deceive.

    I just think that the loss of Kelly is hitting us harder than I thought. Pack is doing a great job there but would like to see him more forward as I think he has the best range of passing I've seen at AG for a while. Reid was doing well today and I still don't understand why he came off, there was players who just didn't seem interested to be out there.
    Wagstaff is a hardworking winger, and times he got down the wing no one was there to help him out. Where's the fullbacks we had last season they seem to be held back this season?
    But also where was the fans, the ones that all sang City till I die 10 days ago? 17k home fans down to 10.5k ??

    A game we must win, yes this is a game we have to win, you'd throw in a 20 year old loanee who's played 0 games in the football league because it's shrewsbury? Sounds a tad arrogant to me..

    Jesus Christ, A must win after 6 games <doh> We could do with wining it lan but it isn't a must win. Shrewsbury will be one of the weaker teams we will play this season. Why not try him, We're going to have to at one point.

    Just being silly now lan.... McLaughlin was brought in for first team. Krans and Holloway are reserves. No point in paying his wages if we don't give him a go.

    beware of weaker teams, they are all round you, please do not hate the shrews. it Is only harmless banter. you may well beat us on tueday. I am prepared for that. you are bound to bounce back soon. I hope its after Tuesday. remember you are too good to go down! now was it last season, you said that. good luck on Tuesday, may the best team win.

    apologies for the banter, I shall remain silent now, unless provoked. but please do not hate the shrews, one of the leagues "weaker" teams. my arse! Floreat Salopia.
