Kurtis Guthrie? Would allow more direct play and a great foil for Pig. Problem being we’ll have to sell Pig to get Guthrie 🤔

Watching yesterday’s game and reading Glyn’s comments is its apparent that although you can’t fault our team for effort - a lot of them simply aren’t good enough to compete at this level. Take the cheap goals we again conceded yesterday and Glyn’s comments about working repeatedly on these things in training. We desperately need a target man up front I believe we are trying to get one on loan and now with Forss our injured and Kwesi we probably need another striker as well.

Where was our left back for the Pompey opener. Some much space to run into

Bert Many thanks for the mail ref old shirts

CW - Rochdale?

Alan - I can’t work out why so much was made of the loan signing of Mads, and then he wasn’t even used - I wasn’t there yesterday, but watching the “highlights”, their second goal looked like one that a big b*stard centre back would have (and should have) been there to head it out to nearly the half way line...... so it’s an area of perceived weakness (think how many times we’ve conceded from such unchallenged crosses this season), and we get a player in from a level above who might have a clue how to cover in these circumstances, and we decide to sit him on the bench - why!? Oh how they bigged up the great Norse reunion/partnership of MF and Mads, and it now looks quite likely they won’t even grace the pitch at the same time at any point..... so disappointing :( On the plus side, Posh couldn’t score yesterday, and they had a decent defender red carded.....

Anybody find out where the friendly on Tuesday is?

Belated thanks to lord infamous and Reigate Don for the Joe Vines and Rashid Yussuff shouts on the AFC Winbledon ABC - lovely stuff.

Lost time nonsense...

A4E, whilst I respect your opinion on this, and there's no reason why the bees cannot be doing his recovery, they are his player after all. We have a little time to assess that option and if worse than expected then of course do as you suggested. But let's not be bounced into panicking about his injury before the facts are known. Yes it looks bad, but if its a six to eight weeks off, then theirs a good few matches at the end of the season he has possible a chance to see out with us. Some of our own not stepping up would worry me more, and none of this looking up to making up for lost nonsense that happened yesterday that second yellow, particularly after the shit way the first was gained, was a tackle? That never should have been contemplated

On the footy front, is it possible for us to have MF back at Bees for his treatment, thereby allowing us an extra loanee from somewhere, or would that not be permitted? I think it was mentioned on here yesterday, but it might suit them as well as us - I’m sure they’d rather get their fitness folk on it instead of ours.... 🤔

The “Big C” posts on here show just how many are affected - almost everyone experiences cancer either directly themselves or because of relatives or friends suffering. Supporting one another is so important, and there is a lot to be said for the idea of something like a Wombles Against Cancer group of some kind as Mod mentioned - it’s the sort of thing that brings people together, and can help those grieving for lost loved ones, especially as not everyone has close family to support them. Things are improving on the diagnosis and treatment front, so there’s a brighter future for some, but to all those who have been affected or are suffering now, stay strong, speak to others, and best wishes to you all.

That’s terrible MV (guess you already knew that though.) Thoughts are with you and your family.

Kite - maybe they want Kettle to be silent.....?

But is Trevor Kettle's refereeing as bad as using "aloud" instead o when allowed is meant

My heart goes out to your OH, Mattvinyl and obviously to you. My only experience of the big C was my beloved grandfather. There are an number of people who have gone through it on here, including one who is still undergoing treatment - I won't name him out of respect for his privacy. I'm sure that there are quite a few who are willing to talk privately.

If Joe Pigott moves to Ipswich, how about signing this chap to replace him? [Link]

Sobering thoughts on here this evening. Good luck Matt V keep fighting. Weird to see so many on here with experiences. (I’m up to 6 years now since my encounter with it).

Just in case you want to [Link]

Bert, we need a like button. Need to "like" Modwomble's post.
