Question is will the board sack him ? I don’t think there is much point, we can’t bring in the players we need to fix the issue. But he needs to change his approach, we have no defence whatsoever. We need another midfielder in their to help burger..I'd go for Thompson. And we need wilmot back injured and out the team he brings nothing but goals against

What background checks do you expect them to do? It’s not like being a moody little so-and-so is going to come up on a police database. A simple Google search threw up a few issues. I doubt the recruitment team even bothered to do that. Think they were just desperate to get bodies in so we could have enough to form a squad they didn't bother about boring old things like DNA or even ability in some cases.

A fortnight is a long time in the goings on at SCFC.
After a good performance v brum despite the result the players were applauded at the end of the game.
In my opinion a knee jerk reaction with to many team changes v sunderland.
Alleged trouble in the dressing room, rumours of poor attitude, discipline and most players offered for sale....with no one daft enough to buy them
Total humiliation v premier league bound leicester. Large number of fans not staying till the final whistle.

I love the phrase "match fit" it's the biggest load on nonsense I've ever heard. You're either fit or not to suggest only playing in a game gains a player some kind if extra fitness is garbage if it were true managers wouldn't moan their bags off about playing too much. I worked all week and played on the weekend and I could run none stop for 90mins no problem on Saturday and Sunday all while being on the piss Friday night and Saturday dinner and night. Respect.

We've seen what players being dicks have done to this club. Literally cost us £100s of millions in lost revenue. If there is any substance to even half of that, I'm all in with Schuey. To right, berahino, jese, choupo, imbula all bad attitudes which brought this club down. If mmae is in the same mould as these get him out quickly

Pearson did Something just before the kick-off against Swansea. It was the game after Alex Neil got the sack. I'm not sure if many noticed it. However I thought straight away he was sending a message out too certain players in the side who had thrown the towel in on AN. I might be miles off, and for that reason I won't say what it was. However he's not done it since Thanks for sharing!!

No surprise he is back in the team and we are shipping goals for fun. His shit pass led to the 2nd goal today. A centre half in a right backs body!! 3 v Sunderland. 5 v leicester. Ben's back in town

I thought that they got it Spot-on myself👏 Then you are part of the reason why this club is stuck in the rut it is… call yourselves supporters? You’re a fucking disgrace. I expect come mid week you'll be one of those saying play Campbell up top in a front two and he'll come good....NO, he's not gonna come good he hasn't come good or shown the attitide/determination in the last 4 years and that's the disgrace

2 games with wilmot back in and we let 8 goals in.. I know mcnally had a poor game v brum but he was striking a decent oartnership up with rose..was it a knee jerk reaction to bomb him out of the team.. To many changes bring made since the brum game has totally disrupted the team.

He needs to look like he gives a shit then because at the minute his body language is all wrong. I’m years beyond the body language argument to be fair. It died with, frankly, all our best players in the last de see. Arnautovic, N’Zonzi, Shaqiri, Powell, all of them. Never thought I'd see biscuit legs mentioned in the same sentence as proper players Arnie, N'Zonzi and Shaq

We were shit with him and shit without him. He did put the ball in the net every couple of games though, so.ething ghat seems well beyond our current crop of strikers.

In a front 3 as the main striker, I don’t he’ll do anything with the shower of shit around him (cundle/Leris and haska) Right of a front 3 with mmaee, vidigal and junho behind, I’d expect him to be much better. Bear in mind he’s barely played for months. Best goalscorer we’ve got and he’ll be missed You’re willing to rely on the alternatives? Madness After 2 or 3 games the decision has been made that Cundle is a shower of shit..unbelievable. ..yet hope is still held that 30 goals in his career Campbell is the best scorer we've got..🤦♂️

No rush with him- needs loaning to League Two or even National League. Build him up, one division at a time. We need to think long term with these youngsters. Very few are ready for the Championship before they're 21. Totally agree, he needs a few years development yet. The clamour on here for him to be first choice reminds me of the clamour for delap Jr, he was nowhere near ready when on loan for us and 2 loan spells later he's only just now starting to find his feet in the Championship. Lowe is similar he needs a couple of years and loan spells yet to develop mentally, physically, to the demands of first team football.

great news , now get him out on loan Looking at the Brum game he was one of the better strikers on show. I'm not sure about that loan thing . Not sure lowe looked that impressive against brum. Think he a way to go yet to be champ standard.

Post by bridgnorthstokie on Jan 16, 2024 19:10:54 GMT
I think it's a massive step up from the age range they are in. Imagine say Lowe coming up against, say Vestergard at Leicester, a real unit, it would be men against boys.. I am not saying every player has to be a unit, but most championship CH's would bully the likes of Lowe..for sure they are excellent prospects, but for the here and now, maybe too early. Vestergaard has a lot of weaknesses. I've watched him play for Denmark a lot, so I speak from those experiences: his position play is poor, he's slow, and despite his height, he misses a lot of headers, so it's just a matter of a quick "boy" near to pick up those loose balls, and bingo, goal. But you'd have to pick Lowe for that to happen. Of what I've seen of Lowe "quick" is not one of his attributes.

I think it's probably like covid. There's Chris Whitty with the widely accepted received wisdom science (not that it always proves to be correct in the fullness of time) then there's some crank who'll say anything you want if you pay him to. Perhaps, though I don’t think it’s likely that they’ll appoint some crank. In my field, there are plenty of well respected researchers who tackle the issue surrounding why people develop colorectal cancer very differently. The issue is very heterogenous across the population. Depending on what a Department Chair may believe works best within their existing structure, I could be far better suited to work within their program than another, and vice-versa, based solely on the methodologies I employ to tackle the issue. Neither appointment would be wrong though. I imagine that fitness is similarly complex and highly individualized. It could well be that SS holds a different view of what fitness for his players looks like than the current head of sports science. My issue isn’t really that someone is being replaced, it’s that someone is coming in whose experience is “oh, I’ve worked with this guy before”. I think that’s crap. We have much more resources than Plymouth. We have a better training facility and likely can afford to shop in a higher caliber of the job market. However, we are simply returning to the bullshit that is “jobs for the boys”. Jobs for the boys or not. If the new fitness coach can get our team as fit as plymouths were I'd be happy with that. They ran us into the ground in the last 39 mins at their place the difference in fitness levels was plain for all to see. I said the day shu came here that I hope he brings the plymouth fitness coach with him

Genuinely struggling to recall us scoring a better direct free kick Powell vs Hull (H) Skill wise possibly.. But for pure emotion. Higginbothom v west ham, fa cup qtrs. Paul ware v Peterborough, semi final.

Not sure he needs one with the people who make the decisions. The last 2 have played him pretty consistently when fit I’d be surprised if this one didn’t too. Quite simply he’s our best forward player. It’s a section of the fans who have a problem with Campbell. 100% our best forward player, its just a shame at the moment he has poppadom legs.. reminding me of a certain Nick Powell at the moment with his injury record. I'd love to get Ty a run of 10+ games.. Not sure Campbell has the lungs or desire to play shueys style.. time will tell.

Vis unita fortior. United strength is stronger.
Unfortunately it'll never happen. The block 19 kiddies wrecked the boothen with their high speed squeals now their doing the same in the south.
Until the younger generation step up and take on the mantle of chief singers it'll never happen.. jumping up and down with your arms in air in the concourse doesn't do it I'm afraid.
Us oldies had our days creating the atmosphere, the macari days were great atmosphere. 1st year back in the prem excellent, but that was 15 yrs ago and today's youth were still sat in the family section with their mom and dad's, it's over to you lot now, time you stepped up.
