    If it was up next summer it’d be too long. By then he’ll have another THREE years. Mind boggling as I doubt we could even offload him even at least a level down. Barely looks a footballer….

    I get the never go back thing but given the time lapsed I’d be making a cheeky call to Duff see if he fancies it. We can’t go on this way.

    Realistically who wants a player with that mentality not performing and not arsed. Sorry not a trait in a character I would want to try and improve a team.

    It’s a cheap get out for me blaming Collins for the lack of ability and effort shown by Styles,Kane,Watters etc and I’m not buying it.

    I actually feel sorry for Watters, he’s not purposely going out to play bad, it’s just that he’s not very good at this level and for some reason C̶o̶l̶l̶i̶n̶s̶ ̶k̶e̶e̶p̶s̶ ̶p̶i̶c̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶h̶i̶m̶.̶ we signed him on a permanent.

    Man management is what is required, Collins doesn't have it and it is yet another abysmal appointment by the board. You only have to listen to him for 5 minutes and it's blatantly obvious what the problem is.

    It’s Collins job to get the best out of these players and it’s obvious he’s Not

    Once again we are paying the price for a god awful summer transfer window with the worst 'signing' being Collins

    Just been chatting to a few people I know who all support different teams. Decided that my highlights of this season so far are (in no particular order):

    Opening day
    Cosgrove's goal against Wycombe
    MLH getting sacked

    Can't remember ever feeling this disinterested about a season which didn't have relegation nailed on by October - or maybe even including those ones! I guess, if pushed, I would go so far as to say I kind of vaguely feel good that we're winning some games? And I've watched every single one.

    It is but other than Connell i honestly think we have a average squad of players this season and i think we are on for a mid table finish.

    What's happened to Adam Phillip's? He's not the same player this season.

    Cadden is good at this level.
    Williams has the ability if played in the proper position
    Phillips if we work out what’s wrong he’s more than good
    MCAtee if not played as a forward is good enough

    Agree our midfield so far this season is unrecognisable to last season and obviously you can say the same about our defence

    Didn’t watch tonight because given the competition I didn’t care who won really.
    Reading the comments though, they all resonate, players not seeming to be playing to potential etc, Watters I feel sorry for really but has been in crap form for like forever and shows no sign of pulling it back. Jalo a naturally talented striker again denied game time, it seems nonsensical.
    It all seems to come back to the manager not being able to, err manage and get the best out of his squad. The players we have if used properly should be more than capable of making a good fist of it in this league, but just seem shorn of confidence and any discernible way of making progress.
