Nichols reminds me of Luke James I'm afraid. If anything James had more technical skill. Nicholls is just too lightweight and gets knocked off the ball easily. He didn't intentionally set up that goal against Rochdale, it was a crap header which fortunately fell to our player to score. I don't know who recommended him to DC, but for his league you need physical brutes to compete with the robust defenders we come up against. I think DC should admit defeat with Nicholls, move him on and never do business with f@cking Peterborough again. I don't think you need a brute to be successful in this league but Nichols is a flat out Pussy imo, weaker than nats water

I remember when they took over, there was posts on here about hotels and flats going up next to the UWE...... Lol 2 years later... We wouldnt have made any money out of those hotels and flats, certainly not a lot anyway, I'm glad the UWE died a death tbh, we'd end up like Coventry.

I believe he's out of contract but there may be a tribunal fee possibly.

Taylor missed loads of sitters before and after he started to score regularly for us. Nichols doesnโt miss sitters he doesnโt score goals and he doesnโt get chances. Yet. Nah come on TN has fluffed one on ones. Taylor did the same for a while. Taylor got a ridiculous amount of chances each game and more often than not he would put one, two or three away, he also created many for himself and got himself in the right areas, I understand people want to back Nichols but he just isn't good enough.

Most of those players only took a couple of months to get going, after that I saw no such problems. Whilst the lad has good technical ability, it's taken a hell of a long time for him to fit in, to me, he doesn't look like part of the team, doesn't look like scoring, doesn't create his own opportunities and when he does, he fluffs his lines completely. I understand that we aren't playing Telford because we paid for Nichols, but surely if we know he's going to be contracted to us next year then why not give Dom a chance to prove his worth? It will be a bit late to find out Telford is no better than James/Nichols once we've signed him!! I'd like to see him get the minutes that Nichols is currently wasting if only to make sure we don't have a third season with a goal shy striker!! Telford has scored 3 goals for us in what I believe is less than 10 appearances. Nichols and James have 2 between them in 40 games and counting. Telford looks a threat and more like the player we should be playing, tbh with his style and the way he plays he's basically Matty Taylor, very similar technique and Telford is still only 21 and putting the ball in the net for the development squad as well. I don't think he will be goal shy in the slightest, he has a point to prove if he wants to be playing in the FL next season and I'd rather that over Nichols who couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat.

I think technically Nichols is a good player and I can see all the reasons they bought him. Similar to Taylor in style, but it hasnt worked for him SO FAR. If he had scored early in the season and hit the ground running we could be saying something different about him right now. I wouodnt give up on him after one season, like some want to bin him now. If we did that for everyone, most of the the players that got us promoted would have been out the door at some point Most of those players only took a couple of months to get going, after that I saw no such problems. Whilst the lad has good technical ability, it's taken a hell of a long time for him to fit in, to me, he doesn't look like part of the team, doesn't look like scoring, doesn't create his own opportunities and when he does, he fluffs his lines completely.

Luke James has scored for Barrow! 3 goals in his last 90 odd games, glad we got rid.

I hope Telford gets a chance tonight, I'd love to see him take Nichols out of the side

Bennett he must be joking. Fans- We've got no width! DC- Alright well I'll sign a winger and another attacking player who can play on either side. plays winger. Fans- what are you playing him for ?!

Interesting it seems he deliberately took loanees who were approaching the end of their contract. Hadn't heard that before. So who would have Telford and Bola here next season ? I certainly would, their both still very young and Telfords goals to games ratio isn't bad at all, I rate him more than Nichols tbh, he will get more of a chance this end of the season I think. Bola is also very impressive at times and as soon as his defensive maturity clicks then he will be a decent player to have in the squad.

Wonder what Bennett and Smith were up to when they bumped into each other?๐ค Maybe it was in Thailand for a special film recording ๐๐
