Re: Exiles thread - Blackpool (A)

Incredible we're winning this, Blackpool should've scored six, three points Is three points but this has been diabolical Bit of an over reaction, to call it diabolical It hasn’t been a great game, very scrappy But a win is a win and 3 points badly needed Get in COYO’s Lady Luck was on our side toda...

Re: Matchday (evening) and exiles thread vs Rotherham 04/03/25

Sweeny seems to be playing everywhere but LB. Not sure what instructions he’s been given.

Re: Kickoff routine

That’s been our KO routine since the mid 80’s. See no point in changing it now

Re: Exiles thread

In our last 13 league games we’ve had 11 clean sheets and 9 in the last 10. That’s insane. And it’s been a mixed defence as well with injuries to Happe / TJ / Simpson at different times. Shows how well they are drilled as a unit that they can chop and change and continue to keep so organised and ti...

Great advice.

Re: Man City at home

Will the TV rights really be that high anyway? It’s the only thing that would be different compared to being drawn at home against any other club. Also, if the club raise ticket prices by a significant amount that would be a PR disaster. Why would it be a PR disaster? Limited availability to see yo...

Re: Man City at home

Would City at home provide any additional income compared to any other club at home? If it were an away draw then yeah, but at home it makes no difference right? In the long term a play-off push is more sensible. Blowing a load of players hamstrings to get through to a home tie we will lose seems a...

Re: Exiles Thread.

Was a good performance today. Wellens got the team + formation spot on given the fact that Wrexham are very strong on the counter attack and that we let two soft goals in on Tuesday on the break away. Agree with others though that we could do with getting more goals when we are on top. If we get tha...

Poor use of the subs yesterday imo if Galbraith was pulled off against Bolton with a slight pull why play him against Newport? Perkins looks like he didn’t want to get his socks dirty and won’t get stuck in, the other new guy looks more like a bodybuilder, Dan A isn’t a CF imo would be better out w...

Re: Wellens Interview

Has the budget been cut from last season? This whole budget narrative is going to get really boring, really quickly. Every time there’s a poor performance the “budget” will be used as an excuse by the club. Talking of which, I notice that big bad Birmingham with their enormous budget only managed t...

Re: Sweeney and loan keeper equals a 2 goal start !

The worst moment for me was when we had a free kick that would have worked if he hadn’t over hit a 15 yard pass. Couldn’t seem to win a header but overall average performance. That free kick was a decent move but like you say he fkd what was essentially a very simple pass in to the box. He had some...

Struggle to understand why people seem to revel in the misfortune of one of the best strikers England has ever produced and has had the guts to try and carve a managerial career out of the game post finishing, by managing at lower lge teams.
