  1. His comments about Jewish people are a journalist's dream..

     

    "The Jews don't like losing money. Nobody likes losing money. Do you think Jewish people chase money a little bit more than we do? I think they are very shrewd people.

     

    I think Jewish people do chase money more than everybody else. I don't think that's offensive at all.

  2. Yesterday also highlighted for me the lack of a vocal organiser in defence - some of the 'wacky' goalmouth scrambles that we allowed was because no-one took responsibility and dealt with it ...thankfully we have two of these on the way back (george and lockwood) .

    The goal itself was because both centre halfs and keeper were way too casual and managed to present crawley with a goal from very little pressure.

    I even saw the new boy johnson gesturing for them to communicate!

    Agreed, Dieng is very quiet and although he can look quite comfortable at times, the centre back pairing looks sturdier with Elokobi in there.

     

    I'll assume it's just a language barrier issue with Timmy as he was captain of the youth team at Brest, so must have showed leadership qualities.

  3. IMO LJ got the subs completely wrong - If Forte is not cutting it for what ever reason (Kuqi syndrome or injured) you've got Poleon,Turner,Winchester or Dayton on the bench that can come on and keep the system as it was. By bringing Tisder on (a holding midfielder) you change the whole dynamic of the system. Tisder, through what he is used to, kept dropping back and sitting along side Kelly leaving the left hand side of midfield completely empty. If he is a winger then I'm the Duke of Edinburgh. This leaves us with two holding which forces him in taking our captain and rock at the base of the diamond off to get another attacking player on which should have been done at half time.

     

    However they offered nothing going forward and due to complacency from Rachukba dropping Wilson in it they scored and at half time they set out their stall and parked the metaphorical bus. They had their plan, came for a point and got it due to throwing themselves at everything that moved whether it be ball, player or turf.

     

    As much as I am a Danny P fan I do feel he has a problem with trying to walk it and and I think that he needs to either get it out of he feet and put his foot through it or pass to someone. However I think that as a collective all were at fault for that and we needed to have a few more long range shots when they started to camp on the edge of their area.

    Agree with a lot of this. Although I've nothing against Tidser, I'd have expected to see another forward on to replace Forte. Poleon came on eventually but seemed to get stuck out wide.

     

    Like said before, we need to be killing off games against the likes of Crawley. More goals please.
