With Paul Hayes proving to be a turkey, and big Bazza a decent, but not a 20 a season man, would I be right in my assumption that Ritchie has taken the hump with Nads, why won't he play the lad from the start, instead of sending him on to try and salvage something just like Mr Hart. And why has Bobby Hassel not been sent to play with Barnsley ladies.
RE: I saw that too.. Compared to any other forward at the club, give me an alternative to Barry Conlon as a target man. I await with bated breath.
What's this thing about having a target man? Shouldn't we just play two forwards who score goals and help us win games?
Marc Richards Conlon? Target man? since when? his shocking in the air, wins one in 5 headers on a good day, always ALWAYS passes the ball backwards and has slower reactions than a corpse. if he's the best we've got, then Ritchie wasnt fookin shooting not sacking. Mind he tried to get rid and failed, only to try and force him back into the jigsaw. utter garbage.
RE: Target man my arse In this league, are you serious, pretty football will get you admired but not promoted, Hayes is not up to it so why not play Nads with Conlon and see what happens, it's got to be better than the crap we're watching now, by the way, try to be more involved with your replies it's like conversing with Paul Hart.
RE: Target man my arse Conlon and a.n.other isnt working. What happened to playing two fast strikers who can run with the ball and try to beat a man, like ritchie stated he wanted to do in pre-season. Which we did in pre-season and seemed to work better than playing the 'target' man?
Lets keep thumping the ball up to that carthoss and usually giving the ball back to the opposition cheaply Andy Ritchie said he wanted to play with two strikers who can run at defenders. This has not happened..but defenders in this league HATE to have players run at em Instead we are aiming hopless balls up to Colon and laughably Hayes/Nads.
RE: What's this thing about having a target man? Who will supply two bog standard strikers we have no midfielders capable of putting in a good through ball, like it or lump it, Conlon is all we've got until we have a manager with an eye for talent. for the record I would've prefered Conlon was off loaded along with Hassel, Carbon,kay and Colgan, but we've got to puck with the frick we've got.
RE: What's this thing about having a target man? Goon Target man holds ball up till midfield arrive, ergo more players in danger areas = more chance of scoring. Lesson over.
Conlon isn't all we've got We've got Nardiello and Hayes. We've also got Jarman who has started banging them in in the reserves. Ritchie refused to let him go out on loan so must see something in him, yet he isn't even picking him in the 16 which makes little sense to me. Then there's Marc Richards. Ritchie said he would only bring in players who are better than what we've got, so he must rate him. So why not play him? We haven't scored for 4 games. Conlon only has only one goal from 9 starts. What we're doing at the moment is not working. It needs changing. Now.
I see. It's working a treat. No goals in 4 games. Conlon with 1 goal in 9 starts. It's a genius tactic.
RE: What's this thing about having a target man? You're proving my point you idiot, try watching something you might understand, because football seems out of your depth.
