The team the last time Devaney played against us

Marriott
Austin Crooks Morgan Mulligan
Donovan Neil Jones Ward
Dyer Sheron
Subs not used
Ghent Lumsdon Gorre Rankin Kay

Is the current side better or not-DISCUSS

 

I would have
Marriott Morgan Dyer back
Gorre if he were 5 years younger
We are not out of the woods by a long chalk but it just shows what crap we have been watching these last few seasons

 

Are you mad , I wouldnt have Gorre or Marriot back if they offered to pay us to play.

Possibly the worst keeper I have seen play for us , and a complete waste of a wage for the 3 or 4 season we had him Gorre.

 

Flinders is better than Marriott
Austin - Austin
Mulligan - Tongue is better
Crooks - Reid is better
Morgan is better than Carbon or Vaughan
Donovan - dear oh dear, my mums better than him so Williams certainly is
Alex Neil - McPhail Better
Jones - Burns is Better
Ward - Shukes is better
Dyer - Nardiello - tough one, i'd probably rather have bruce but ask me at end of season
Sheron - i havent seen hayes play yet but i'd be very very upset if he wasn't better than Mike Hero. One of my most hated players of recent times, stole a wage for a few seasons and cost us over a million quid. Still crying into my pint glass about that one.

I'd still like to have Rankin in the squad, an excellent sub and always got stuck in
Lummie - pissed up the wall
Kay - Kay
Gorre - too injury prone

All in all I'd say yes the team is better and the most important thing is that this team is young and hopefully they will all develop together. Still need a new centre back though I think

 

crikey, maybe THAT'S our worst ever midfield ??

nevermind the tragedy that was the forward line or the goalkeeping situ.

If that was Cheltenham away, I remember Marriott being virtually in tears as our own fans took the p*** out of him. Some woman had a go at these fans...and I turned round and told her it was about time someone said it to Marriott (can't remember what now, but to the effect of "you have to be the most useless keeper I have EVER seen")

and we won, 3-1 (yes, they were terrible)

 

RE: crikey, maybe THAT'S our worst ever midfield ??

I remember, it was that really cold night in February. I think we played quite well against how we had been playing at the time. Everyone thought how terrible it was that we had reached the level where we had to play there. I was quite pleased - I live half an hour away!

 

can't disagree much with your very reasoned analysis-except for Rankin
