“ As I said to you on Tuesday night, we’ll get promoted.” Says Joey.
I love the openness and honesty of Joey in his latest pre match interview. The more we hear what Joey says the more some are inspired by his belief in his signings. We need a victory to calm some on here.
I can’t be done with sniping and the constant negativity. Like the many, who are not on here, I forward to the belief being transferred into good performances and a victory.
Stick with the rebuilding job and fingers crossed for Saturday.

Does anyone know if anyone strikers are fit for tomorrow and Tuesday. It feels like we need at least 4 points of our those 2 games already. If we don't win one of them then the pressure really is going to build, already this early in the season.

He did say Aaron Collins and Sam Nicholson were in the mix for selection now (if they get through training OK today). But Hanlan and Pitman are both sidelined for a while, I think.. |

Is this the same Barton that said he would keep us up last season ? Can’t believe people people are hanging on to the Barton PR machine ! |

That’s not openness and honesty that’s just optimism.
I don’t mind a manager saying we want to get promoted and we want to do it in a certain way. But to say we will get promoted is over promising no matter how capable your squad is.

Cheers, that's a worry. I know he's mentioned getting another striker in (which may mean Hanlan goes). We defiantly need another target man type striker in ASAP if they're going to be out a while. We've not chance of promotion let alone top half if like last season we still can't score goals. |

So need to win tomorrow and Tuesday.Oldham have made a number of signings but Exeter next Sat won't be easy either.Our shots on goal are almost non existent and compared to Cheltenham Tues' our passing was so staccato and not fluent like that of our opponents.Basic stuff really so do hope we have been working on it but time is running out for the striker or three (who actually score) to be signed for to-morrow.
Couple of players on Tuesday clearly not good enough.
Things MUST improve before crowds decline.

Reading some of the comments from our so called supporters " I'd hate to go to war with some of them " Defeated before the battle .

Love the optimism but we need a goal machine for that to be realistic. Rest of the squad looks ok on paper

A semblance of a game plan would be nice.There certainly didn’t seem to be one against Cheltenham.

Hasn't Rodman played up front in the past? Could be an option when subs are made. |

Reading some of the comments from our so called supporters " I'd hate to go to war with some of them " Defeated before the battle . Ridiculous isn't it? That would be like talking to the press about how we would re-shape our squad to compete in League Two with 8 games left of our League One season. |

As much as anything I think we need someone up there who can hold it up, link play and make runs in behind. When the attacking midfield have no confidence in the striker (as seems the case with Saunders having to play that role) the whole attacking side of the game gets stifled. |

Let's hope all the honest and open people saying we will go up aren't saying at the end of the season there's no way we could have ever gone up, like the honest and open people saying JB would keep us up saying at the end of last season there's no way JB could have kept us up.
Blimey, now I'm not gonna get conscripted into albaron's imaginary war.

Im not a huge JB fan- however i believe we will get promoted this season. All take a look back to pages c680 on this forum and you will read almost the same stuff after the first games of our conf season. It wasnt really until after the Eastleigh away game (30/9/14) that the mood really started to change. Before that it was all DC out , happy just to stay in the league etc etc............ This season will change for the good , and then in May i can bump this thread and get banished to the other forum  |

"Alex Rodman, Sam Finley and Sam Nicholson, all being well today, will come back into contention, and Aaron Collins as well, so one more than we thought.
They’ve got to get through training today. I’ve got everything crossed."
