Blue_Pizza Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 We had 3 clean sheets in a row before today, so why the need to replace Brill. I can understand it if we had the budget (maybe we do) but wasn't a priorty. (Flahavan did well though) The point is we need a striker, its been evident for weeks & weeks we need a striker, so why haven't we signed one? If its because of the budget then read above, its p*ssing me off so much, same old same old, concedeing one and getting beat, even if we hadn't conceded its still a 0-0 draw. Nardiello? Brandy? Both Northern based why havent we got one, or been even reported trying for one? The first being a very good player and playing in a lower league! Sort it out, 2 massive games now, both very winnable, lose one and lose to leeds its 10 points + off the play-offs and will look a long way back behind some consistant sides, Hudds, Leeds, Charlton, MK & Norwich etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was to me the main problem with the side. However, there is a need for a forward to come into the side. I'm not going to throw names around as I'm hardly qualified and don't know how much money is available (myself, if anything, I'd throw Eaves* in). If you or anyone thinks we are going up this year or getting near to that, you need your head checking. *I guess I am going to throw names around then.

OldhamSheridan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 3 clean sheets in a row away, and its the main problem :lol: Yes. Even the manager that signed him and had loads of faith appears to think that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yes. Even the manager that signed him and had loads of faith appears to think that too. Flahavan looks decent - should get him for the season I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics_Fanatic Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Good Research B_P. Huddersfield L 1-0 Southampton L 3-1 Cant remember the game inbetween. was it Brighton W 2-0? Anyway, Brill "needed a rest from football" according to Penney. Thats the nice way of saying your not good enough and you'll be out on your arse in January! It was a very good penalty yesterday, right in the corner so he didnt have much chance at saving it. This new lad seems decent, but seems to be abit on the small side! Keep this keeper until January at the least. Greg Fleming should be coming back then IMO and maybe we might start conceding less & scoring more!

oafc-latics Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 striker...what about wellbeck at united way out of our league. if he's on the fringes of the first team at united then they wont want him to go. its worth an enquiry though, he'd totally boss this league and if you dont ask, you dont get. what this team is a bit of inspiration. somebody needs to take control and up their game. :censored: is playing well but he is the only consistent performer in the team. whether it is somebody currently here or somebody on loan, we need this person fast. we cant carry on relying on abbott.

creepy Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 striker...what about wellbeck at united do you honestly think TTA will spend money on somebody like that while they are planning their 'escape' from the club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Pizza Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 I meant away from home. 0-0, 1-0 & 2-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I meant away from home. 0-0, 1-0 & 2-0. Cool, why not just pick games in which we haven't let any goals in? Are you really arguing the point that brill should be in the side? Really? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you really arguing the point that brill should be in the side? Really? I didnt pick those games, i picked the away games in recent form. Didn't say Brill shouldn't be in side, just said we had more things that should have taken priority ala a striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what you mean? Ditching the keeper was a clear priority. Finding a decent striker for the next 6 weeks is too.
