RE lack of defensive midfielders, may be Abs will come back into the fold? Like Tommy Nicks, Abs has found his level.

Completely underwhelmed by Starnes’ interview. It was quoting the obvious wasn’t it. Surely you choose the new manager on the strength and type of player on your books at the time. All football is now a binary choice. It’s either possession based or direct. There is no in between anymore. I would add that football snobbery plays a part too. One is for artistes and the other for plebs. I’m happy to be a pleb.

RE lack of defensive midfielders, may be Abs will come back into the fold? Hopefully Liddle will get a game tonight. So we can atleast see if he might be up to that role.

RE lack of defensive midfielders, may be Abs will come back into the fold? If not then hopefully somebody similar but perhaps better. For me it’s not that I desperately want to see him back in the side it’s more a case of just needing that kind of player. The fleetwood game Saturday in those conditions was exactly the kind of game he was getting man of the match in last season

If everything is at 100 mph then you’ll find it difficult to keep possession and will tire quite quickly also if you just tap it sbout backwards and sideways at a snails pace then you’ll never break sides down. Garner did the latter and that’s why we rarely created a chance let alone scored.

Garner did the latter and that’s why we rarely created a chance let alone scored. I said this even before Garner was appointed. His alleged style was akin to painting by numbers. There seemed no room for passion or physical strength. It was to be all technical stuff. Well, surprise, surprise he came a cropper. He inherited a team of triers and quickly dismantled it into a team of posers. I know what I prefer.

The squad is in transition, and we’re in a much much better place than we were with last seasons squad. Lower average age, more potential etc. If you can’t see that then you’re just being intentionally negative/close minded.
Simply we are trying to move on the older, experienced pros on 2/3k a week (Agogo, Upson, Craig etc) and replace them with better value (Ehmer, or younger players released from Prem clubs like Grant). It’s impossible to do it all in one window, and I for one am just pleased we identified and brought in Hanlan to replace JCH, without that relegation would’ve been almost nailed on.
We actually have a plan now and are trying to be less rag bag, I for one and all for it. If you haven’t already I would suggest watching Sunderland Till I Die on Netflix, and looking at the kind of situation the new owners walked into, then apply it to Wael and Co.
I’d much rather have a L1/L2 club to support than become the next Bury.

Paul Tisdale fits Starne's criteria perfectly. This one appears to be nailed on. Thats because he had phoned Tisdale before making this video

Until Tisdale starts winning games it's a bit early to say we're in a much better place than last season, particularly when we were third with only really Craig coming to the end of his career. Last night TW turned to Upson & Leahy to give us some much needed experience. It'll be interesting to see the type of player Tisdale brings in, more inexperienced youngster or some much needed experience.

Lower average age, more potential etc. If you can’t see that then you’re just being intentionally negative/close minded. Eh? We were in play off places 11 months ago, with belief (if you were one of the many that sang their way out of Ipswich). That's the truth, and hardly negative or close minded - actually quite the opposite - our minds were being opened! Agree with later post about rag bag tag, we are slowly turning this around by not allowing cut corners, satans grotto, h back handers, and folk to take the p out of the club... We appear a much more professional outfit and it's important to get the backroom/off-field staff sorted, prepped and organised in correct places before advancing..

It’s a no from me for Tisdale . Spent too long knocking round in the divisions below , his brief spells at this level haven’t been great. Just like DC he got found out when he moved up to this level I think Tisdale did as well. I’d be surprised if we pick him...... and I’m not often wrong 😉 😕
