Without wanting to sound mean to the young man, Kelly is not the answer to our problems.

Time to recall Kelly? And sign that young lad that scored for them too.

Could understand him feeling/knowing that Bugiel was tired/jet-lagged from international duty but yep the other two seemed like fielding a deliberately weakened starting line up.

The biggest problem about yesterday was that we didn't need to start either Orsi or Sasu yesterday. We could have started with Asiimwe and Bugiel/Hackford. Quite what was in JJs mind is beyond me.

Good update, as always REPD - I do agree with your point at the end of your piece, that if anyone who comes in to bail us out in the next couple of months they will probably be doing so with a view to being in pole position to bid for control of the club when the reality that we have to sell out control finally hits home.

Is Sam Hutchinson ever going to be able to play again? If so I'd start him in midfield alongside Reeves and let Hippolyte and Smith fight for the attacking midfield spot. Reeves nowadays is the 'water carrier' not the playmaker. If we are playing well as a team he helps us play well, if we're playing poorly he helps us play poorly. I don't think we have anyone else who performs that role and if we had money there would be more glaring weaknesses to fix.

Good write up Rob

Morning all. If you want to, SW19 is updated - [Link]

Must be my memory all wrong.

Dyche was between Watford and Burnley when Ardley was appointed so maybe his CV was there till he discovered what the remuneration would be.

That's it, Meadow. Lee Bradbury. The local paper announced that Rob Page had got the job but Neal had.

Andy Scott also interviewed for the role IIRC and managed Aldershot.

Trigger not sure Sean Dyche ever been linked you may be thinking of Shaun Derry who was linked along with Kevin Nolan & Russell Slade when Wally got the job

Well, the decline has truly set in. I expect us to be outside the top 14 by Christmas and between 18-20th by late January. We looked totally clueless yesterday.

Padds, are you thinking of Lee Bradbury? Maybe was interviewed in 2012 but then went to manage Havant & Waterlooville. Now at D&R.

Here you go [Link]

It’s some sort of Christmas movie soundtrack maybe Home Alone.

Two cracking goals by Kai Jennings. The next Rudoni.

You've got us delving into our ancient memories /Google now, Trig.

Polite to volunteers?

Rob Page was one of the blokes interviewed when Neal got the job (subsequently a Wales manager), and a chap who subsequently managed lower down, in Hampshire maybe. Meadow would know. I remember her saying how polite he was to the volunteers.

I could be completely wrong Pads just somewhere in my memory* I have Dyche interviewing for our manager role and our lot finding him a bit arrogant. Could be false in many many ways it’s just a thing that I think I remember hearing about.

Chelsea supporter, regrettably.

Really, Trig? Surely he's always been way above our level. (His lovely cousin comes from here in Watchet. He has exactly the same voice, but with a Somerset accent. Just retired from running the line in County football at the age of 65. )

Was it Sean Dyche who interviewed for our manager role back in the day?
