On Hemir - I’m not sure he needs to score 20 goals in his first season to prove he’s decent mind, only 3 players managed more than that last season. Gyokores hit 17 in 2022 and everyone was banging on about how good he is yet the likes of Solanke, Weimann and Aherne-Grant amongst others outscored him.

We picked up 6 penalties last season so if we see similar numbers this year and he’s our taker that’s a good start. I think if we start playing to his strengths and he gets an early goal it’ll give him some much needed confidence. I just hope he’s given a good crack and doesn’t get dropped if he has a few quiet games.
 
is pritchard injured?

had a look at the recent training pictures and did not notice him or LND but embo and evans were there (obviously those three will be at different stages on the road to returning).

Ok. I'll donate £5 for every goal he scores in the league.
 
Any takers for Mayenda in the league? Could be a good money spinner for charity this. I’ll put in £5 to charity for every goal Bishop scores league and cup (not for own goals though).

Has any took Tony Mowbray yet? I'll donate £50 for everygoal he score, cups and leagues because I'm feeling generous I'll allow own goals!

In fact best make it 50p cause known my look he will dust off his boots and get 30 goals!
 
you probably pushing the 15m mark for archer t

i agree with that, but now a chunk of the fan base are now saying KLD is no better the SD and co, this is some of the biggest melt down i've seen in a long time, scared to see what it's like tomorrow if we get beat
We won’t <ok>
 
I'd be really surprised if Hemir doesn't start, because Mowbray said in midweek he didnt want to risk our only striker. Of course I think part of that was a message to the recruitment team. But I also believe he plans on playing Hemir.

I have no idea why he wouldn't either. Goals in pre-season and then one nervous 60 minute performance doesn't and should't change his perspective.

Dropping him and playing NO striker would be so harmful for his confidence.

I do think people are exaggerating how bad he looked at the weekend tbh. And he was nervous. Think he might surprise a lot of people still, even if I agree he looks raw.

Wonder if hemir might be best coming off the bench tomorrow, start jobe n pritchard as a rotational front 2 then when the game is opening up then bring on hemir

Not ideal i know but often young strikers are better coming off the bench once the game opens up

They absolutely have, and then some.

I desperately hope the poor lad doesn't read our fans' social media or, if he does, that he's got a very thick skin.
