Could have two left feet but Don’t mean there any good. I’m not writing him off btw. But got to be more to the position than what foot you use.

I don't think we were anywhere near as bad as most are saying. 4 points from Scunthorpe and Bury away is a great return and if our home form holds up we'll be fine. In the first 25 mins we didn’t touch the ball? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One too many mights and maybes in this for me to feel confident. Can you give us a clue about the type of source and also are we allowed to recall Clarke?

deyres42 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Clarke won't play for us again and certainly won't be recalled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Ignore me. Just read that you can no longer recall a loan player outside of the transfer window. What a shite rule... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you watched it on IFollow and thought he had a good game except for the booking which I thought was kind of soft seeing there where tackles coming in from their players which where far more dangerous that never got a booking. Mombie saved us in the last few minutes. Christ what do people want from a player blood???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes hand in hand with the loan rules though - if you can't sign players on loan, it'd be very unfair to be able to have them taken off you in the middle of March with no recourse of bringing in a replacement.

League one forever Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Like the rest of team he picked up, after a poor start on sat. I like Miombe, mainly because he’s got a bit about him- he gets stuck in. That’s a valuable commodity in a relegation battle. A fighter. (Yes, I know he’s walking red card, but rather that than a shithouse) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laticsbiffo Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Miombe is a decent left back, who is still getting to terms with League 1 footy. If he makes half the progress Fane has after settling in we will have a bloody good left back on our hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we will start Doyle and Davies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rigsby Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Doyle , assuming he is fit, has to start saturday. Our best midfield is still undecided , Gardner has improved his performances (he really had to) so i would be starting him with Byrne. Pringle has me a little undecided, hes neat and tidy on the ball but for me hasn't done enough, i'd be tempted to give the dundalk dynamo a go (again assuming he is fit). Fane will start, but again i'm very undecided, at Bury he was gash, at Blackburn he was excellent. The defence is an ongoing concern, if we avoid the drop its an area RW will have to look very closely at, and strengthen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be temped to go with Doyle and Davies from the off, as a slow start will be far from ideal against Portsmouth. Naz hasn't done anything to warrant being dropped in my opinion but goals are needed and I feel confident that Doyle will deliver as well as energising Davies. McEleney from the start sounds a good prospect but I suspect he's not ready yet. We shall see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me his "wayward" shot seemed to take a slight deflection in the highlights which nobody seems to have mentioned. I'd be happy with any 2 of Davies, Doyle or Nazon. I think Doyle has to start now he's fit, would be interesting to see him paired with Nazon. McEleny off the bench for the last 30, too much of a gamble to start him as he's still adjusting 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc_lover Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Doyle in for Nazon for me 100%. Nazon just doesn’t have the brain that Doyle has to make smart runs and create spaces in their defence. Don’t get me wrong he’s alright and now and again does well whilst taking on his man but too often just loses the ball up top because he picks it up then it never looks fully under control so he runs at half speed. Doyle however scares the living shit out of defenders forcing them to either back track at speed or close him down creating tonnes of space. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frizzell54 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Not sure about Doyle on at the start, I think he’s only got 45’ in him and I fear they may sit deep without him 2’nd half. Better to have him terrify tired defenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s fully fit which we’ve been told he is, then he can last longer than 45 minutes. He’s shown us a glimpse that he is probably match sharp by tearing the Scunthorpe defence a new bung hole when he came on and slotted home like he’d never been away. He’s clearly ready and if he’s not, then he isn’t fully fit like RW has twice said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he plays from the start on Saturday and if he plays like we know he can, then we can get the first of the 4 wins we need to be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
