Northampton and Newport

Post by Lucky7 »

Club have just announced that as these 2 clubs are previous clubs of Justin Edinburgh tributes etc will be made

A serious question here do you think all these tributes etc this season have actually got to the players coaches etc and that’s why we maybe not performing as well as expected

Not using this as an excuse just curious on what others think

I don't think it helps. Surely we have now got to move on, haven't we?

As desperately sad it was to lose Justin in the way that his passing happened, I think it’s time to move on.
Maybe after these two games we will.

Think it's right that we honour JE, you'd think last season's players would want to put in a shift to keep up the workrate that he instilled in them. Seemed to have that drive for the Cheltenham game but nothing since. Think Embleton went a bit too far if the stuff about playing funeral songs before games is true though.

Also when you think about it now potentially half the starting XI tomorrow would've had no experience of the club as it was last season, surely the "only Ross can work with them" argument is diminished by now?

(Vigoroux, Marsh, Cissé, Wright, Wilkinson, Angol for the sake of completeness)

You would have to omit Josh Wright from that list he’s actually a close friend of the Edinburgh Family

Can you imagine the backlash if we get relegated. It could well devalue the Justin situation
