Prediction
Moderators: Admin, Ralph, asl, Robin
I don’t necessarily agree with their prediction, I thought Pack’s form was very sketchy last season and first half he was quite poor, and Mo well you’ve only got to read what fans have said about him on here he’s not everyone’s favourite player, some of this seasons signings look good on paper and some have potential but you can’t really tell until the season starts how they will perform, also I think the prediction is just another back handed complement, and what I disagree with is I don’t think the two players mention were as influential last season as is suggested in the assessment. http://thetwounfortunates.com/ttu-go-pr ... -2-preview

in my opinion we have a stronger team than we have in the last two season. this season yates has brought in proven quality at this level who will work as a team, don't get me wrong we have had quality before but individual and that don't make a consistent team Just moments of brilliance and that's what we have had. this year I believe we could go up but we do have a tough start.
I agree.Joey wrote:I wouldn't describe Mohammed as a "pivotal" player, maybe the 11-12 season but the last season, no. This article seems like a load of rubbish anyway.
I liked Mo and think he did a good job here, but last season wasn't quite the same - probably due to that injury he picked up early on in the season.
At the very least we're of equal quality to last year.
The only worry l have is if Cureton starts banging them in will he be consigned to the bench as has happened to our leading scorers in the last two seasons

You may feel that the truth about Yates' team selection is unpalatable but I do not think that you should be insulting regular posters to this forum in such an uncouth way.
Everytime a striker scoring lots of goals for us is mentioned, somebody always has to bloody say that. It's boring and pathetic.taxidave wrote:I really do not feel that there was any need for a reply like that.Joey wrote:Shut up.C.V wrote:The only worry l have is if Cureton starts banging them in will he be consigned to the bench as has happened to our leading scorers in the last two seasons

so we now have a striker that is not scoring goals
a winger who cannot cross the ball
We need to get behind these players rather than knocking them
MY will sort them out in a positive way
Alsop and Naylor had Lee Williams
Harrison and Cureton have McGlashan
Goals goals goals

Yes I agree that is the only way to prepare for a new season, the only problem is that all the fans of the other 72 clubs will be thinking exactly the same.Shade wrote:At this stage of the season, I reckon all our players will have immense seasons and we'll win the league. Pre-season optimism.
Soorry Shade l must have dreamt Duffy and Harrod were sat on the bench for the majority of last season my mistake.
I think the wingers are going to end up playing less than normall this season.reckon yates is going to go for the diamond,hes got the perfect players for it.
......................brown
Sido......brown........elliott.........jones
......................taylor
.............penn............richards
.....................deering
..........cureton..........gornelll
We all saw deering perform at his best in the role just behind the strikers,the movement of cureton and gornell will only help him more,richards and penn a left footer and right,and taylor to do what he does and get stuck in.
I really like the look of that team.
Also penn and richards arent strangers to going out wide so they can offer some width if needed at certain points in the games.

The diamond was painful season before last. Remember Oxford at home? Nice sunny day, despressing diamond formation.

Does anyone think Vincent is better than Mo. Can he cross a ball?
Dont do that again Pie
I am not best pleased
I considered Gornell as opposed to Harrison and I am afraid Harrison wins
A big striker and a little one just like Alsop and Naylor.
I see Gornell as the last 30 minute partner for Harrison, not the other way round
I think that once Harrison bangs in a couple and people get off his back he will be fine
So stop being a smart arse and justify why you would have Gornell partner Cureton

Harrison has been nothing but lazy since he has joined us.51/84 wrote: I think that once Harrison bangs in a couple and people get off his back he will be fine

As I posted in another topic, Yates was constantly shouting at him on Saturday telling him "get in the box Byron!" once he had gingerly jogged into the box, the ball was back out and heading the other direction.
Yates tole him again and again, just after Kotwica was fouled Yates shouted "you need to work for it if you want it Byron" Byron looked at Yates turned around and shook his head.
I am not the only one who has noticed this, and I would love to see him succeed, however with his current attitude and work ethos, he will have to shake he head and shrug his shoulders on the bench, unless we sign someone another striker resulting in another seat in the stand being filled.
Gornell on the other hand is like a mad man possessed. He runs around looking for space and opportunity. He isn't afraid to work hard, and try some of the half chances. This can be a downfall of his as people will criticize him for "wasting a chance".
Gornell and Cureton may not be the biggest of players, but with the supply balls from the likes of Richards, Penn, Deering, McGlashan and Vincent there will be plenty of chances and goals.
We all dream of another partnership like Naylor and Alsop, however I cannot see Harrison in that Alsop role.
