No Amond not even on bench.

He can have no complaints if dropped , but surely should be on bench. Unless Harrison thinks they will need to work socks off today, midfield in particular ,so fill bench with midfielders , with view to bringing on fresh legs in last third of game.

Definitely worthy of place on bench, good option to have late on

Would imagine he's on his way

Definitely looks that way to me

If injured , This is the usual chain of events with someone not happy, plays sh*t for months, looks disinterested , get flak off fans then gets mysterious injury , slipped on bar of soap getting out of bath etc.

Adams playing Looks like 4-5-1 good formation imo for this game, attacking 4-5-1 rather than backs to the wall.

Good decision from the manager amonds head is some where else and may be now we might see a bit more of Rodney.
Harrison for me today with this team tactically we should get at least a point.

4141 by the looks.

Amond would have been mentioned as being injured if he was injured.

I'd like to think we'd get some money for him, not that it'll go towards the team, more paying of the crooks debt he left behind.
Really surprised we've not made any moves in the loan market, must be players wanting to get games who are better than what we've got.

Set up defensively to avoid a 6-1??

He just can't leave it alone can he? The best we've played was Macclesfield away in the second half and Chester last week, both 442. I hope he's a tactical genius and proves me wrong

Deverdics playing just off Cassidy I reckon.

No keeper on the bench. Good luck with that then.

Aye maybe so, with magnay and Adams as wing backs with Donnelly dropping into a back 3 when required

They're making a bit of a mystery of why he's not playing on the radio. Keep saying,"We'll find out at the end of the game."

When they ask the manager?

here we go again!

Fuck knows how we're losing this game.

Because they have scored a goal and we have not.

I didn`t listen or watch the tv hoping for something, put a shelf up today for my growing stock of flour, I hope I don`t go down the Bresslaw route and find better things to do but boy it is getting harder to maintain enthusiasm for dog shit games and signings

good luck selling 2,700 season tickets next year if it continues in this vein!

Wonder what Big Sam Allardyce's reaction would have been had a player said that.

Thanks for the clarification

I had a strong feeling we would win today, even put a sneaky fiver on 3-2 at 28-1. WTF was I thinking about?. Think that's it for me, I will be back when a new manager is brought in, this bloke hasn't a clue. II expected 13 pts out of first six games , could never of forecast a start as bad as this.

I don't think I agree to be honest, we signed 10 players over the summer and by the clubs own admission have one of the highest playing budgets in the league. Coupled with the fanfare of Harrison's arrival I think we had every right to be expectant. 2,600+ season tickets shows that, at the minute we're being short changed for that commitment. The blame has to lie with the manager.

It goes without saying there are problems off the field, its usually the case with struggling clubs. A bit of success and you attract bigger crowds , better players, better staff , better directors , better everything. How do you change things ? well it helps if you recruit the right manager in the first place, Cooper, Hignett , Harrison were not the right managers. Cyril Knowles came in to a struggling club, and made average players into good players, through tougher training and a couple of key signings. Harrison to me seems like a big cuddly teddy bear, too easy going, like someone said on another thread, a modern day Coaching badge manager, when what we need is a John Coleman, John Still , Gary Johnson type manager.
