I've just been told our budget for Jan window!! Shocking £400,000 and funnily enough that's what we made from the Chelsea game??? Full backing from the board my arse? And I was told off one of the main staff... Can see us getting much for that unless we sell taylor but still can't see us buying what we need we that...

I think you've living in dream land TBH if you think Lockyer...brown...leads...lines...taylor..gaffney...leads...Hartley...sincs.. are just going to be squad players next season as that will mean the players brought are all of a better ability and so more expensive contrats wise. In my view most of those will still be the back bone of the team next season, assuming DC's still in charge unless Wael is going to invest vastly more than he's done too date in the team. I didn't mean they won't be starting I just meant their good enough for league 1

The team spirit seems to have dried up now and has been for a long time...the defence is taking a battering off everyone but I personally think the midfield is where we are losing games... Dc like everyone says doesn't seem to know his best 11 and You can't expect players to be m.o.m one week then drop them And then say they've let him down..lots have way exceeded their levels of playing and now it's time to change it up for the next level... We have to dig deep financially before it's too late to keep a good pace into next season... I don't see us being relegated so we should buy one or two decent players ready for that and the rest will be gambles... If you look at the squad clearly there's more that need to go than stay... Lockyer...brown...leads...lines...taylor..gaffney...leads...Hartley...sincs.. Theses are the only ones I can see being squad players in division one for next season...the rest have done us proud and should end their careers enjoying first team football elsewhere.. Darryl said he has a 3 year plan to get into the championship then he needs to rebuild asap to give the players two seasons to get their team spirit and form at a consistent level to accomplish this... We become a soft touch to teams and now teams are picking up on it and our main problem is how cheaply we give the ball away in crucial positions...and that's from defence I.e thump it up front to the opposition or stupid passes not completed in midfield... We need some quality brought in January to keep us in a half decent position to attract more quality in the summer and move on the players that just aren't up to it...praying for some quality in Jan sales myself just hope it's us buying them

I think James isn't a replacement for taylor as his record proves he's not...90 games for Hartlepool and 19 goals??? So I hope taylor stays otherwise that's another position we will need to fill...

I would say.... 1,Harrison sold... 2, Lawerence free transfer/paid off 3, puddy free transfer/paid off 4, James Clarke sold 5, mansell sold In...buy/jay O'Shea/midfield Buy/Conrad Logan keeper(then in the summer sign a younger keeper too) Buy/Omar bogle/forward( would cost a bit but looks worth it) Buy/Graham Carey/midfield 2 defenders on loan More than 6-3 but maths has never been my strength

The Bristol post are reporting there will be 5-6 players leaving either permanently or on loan...
What would the 5-6 players leaving for you and 3 coming in??? Before anyone puts "come on stop having a go at the players" This is what happens it's a business and players will leave for more money so let's just get that straight...

What really gets my goat is people on here getting the wrong end of the stick and jumping on anything anyone says or their opinion on Darrel or the players etc..." stop slagging off dc he got us up...stop moaning at our players...I love my club" get a grip...this isn't a thread to slag Charlie off its to ask peoples opinion on whether we carry him as he's learning still as defensively we have problems from middle of the pitch to the defenders and even the keepers...if everyone had the opinion of everything is great no matter what happens this site wouldn't exist...if you don't like people's different opinions then stay off the site!!!! Exactly what Topper says - how is suggesting that we're "carrying" him and calling him out on his Twitter use not a slagging? If you don't like my opinion on what people post may I suggest you stay off the site. Because I haven't once said he's not a good player or has lots of potential what I'm saying is can we afford to let him learn his mistakes and trade as we are struggling defensively at the moment all over the pitch??? Big difference

try to use constructive words to argue your case if possible I think I've illustrated my point beautifully - for people who claim to love the club there's an inordinate amount of bile directed towards the players including things like starting threads with snipey nick names in the title. What really gets my goat is people on here getting the wrong end of the stick and jumping on anything anyone says or their opinion on Darrel or the players etc..." stop slagging off dc he got us up...stop moaning at our players...I love my club" get a grip...this isn't a thread to slag Charlie off its to ask peoples opinion on whether we carry him as he's learning still as defensively we have problems from middle of the pitch to the defenders and even the keepers...if everyone had the opinion of everything is great no matter what happens this site wouldn't exist...if you don't like people's different opinions then stay off the site!!!!

Just interested in everyone's opinion on charlie?
In my opinion I'm not sure we are at a stage where We can carry him defensively? He does some nice touches and flicks and is on twitter retweeting Everyone's comments on his rabona cross but me personally He's not putting his work rate in where it matters... Most of his passes he's trying to pull off don't and loves trying to chip it to gaffney or taylor who are tightly marked??? be good to hear what everyone else thinks?

If we don't bid on Omar Bogle has to be around £100,000 mark And graham carey £350,000 mark...then that's shows you our ambition...we recieved £400,000 from Chelsea game according to posts on here so Harrison sold and bogle in...Lawrence out and Carey in... And realistically we need two keepers but I can't see that happening I haven't seen any I've been impressed with to mind

I'd be fuming if it happened to us. Wouldn't you? They wouldn't need floodlights with the thousands of tickets on fire if it did happen to us....

My thoughts on the formations Daryl has put his trust in has baffled me and I know people will be saying he's got us up doing this but that is in the past and it's been a great past but that was conference and league 2...league one teams only need a couple of chances to score and that's exactly what's been going on.... 3-5-2 for me doesn't really suit us in this league...if I was a centre forward at that level I would be chomping at the bit seeing the 3 defenders being dragged all over the place or constantly looking around to see how their picking up! So we play 5 in midfield then Lockyer or Clarke get the ball in great space after working hard to get it in the first place then bypass the 5 midfield players and pump it up front to our forwards who aren't great in the air which basically ends up back 3 on the back foot again... You can see gaffney especially and taylor signalling to put it to feet??James Clarke is the worst for this as his thought process is so slow which he ends up giving inside on the edge of our box or thumps it to the opposition?? I personally think 4-4-2 is a best formation for us with attacking full backs ... it's not rocket science we need a solid foundation then build from there and not to blame players like dc has and making scape goats...Players are finding it hard to step up and keep it going on the pitch hence that round football becomes a red hot potato to defenders especially. Get rid quick and all the game plans and team talks go out the window. I don't think Darrel is making players scapegoats, just putting forward how instructions and common sense go out of the window all too easily which has become a habit.
I do agree with you that players like Lockyer do find it easy to thump it up front if in doubt but he did do that last season as well, what winds me up even more is the diagonal thump up front so when it comes back the team is stretched...lines/o Clarke/Sinclair is a bad mix in my eyes...boateng would be a better pic than Clarke... we need to get rid of dead wood like Lawrence/manse/James Clarke/puddy/Harrison...get new blood in and start with a week in week out 4-4-2

He hasn't just blamed the players and made them scapegoats, he's said a few times that it stops with him and it's his fault as well. People need to stop saying all DC is doing is blaming players. "There is one of two in the group that are not showing the right character. They have done ever so well for me for two-and-a-half years but one or two might be coming to the end of the road if they don't start improving. Nothing to do with the formation their in? As in he's happy to say his players let him down but he should say he's got the formation wrong and he'll work with the players to change it and find consistentsey!!!!

One thing I wasn't happy with I thought dc made it public he's getting rid of players that didn't perform...as their be seen as the scapegoats... He was saying it's not rocket science to see what we need??? Yeah it is and that is one formation and a team you battle to get into not m.o.m one week then dropped...changing formation two to three times against a non league team come on?
