Managing to make the team more defensive than last week is some effort. And why is Edwards there? Just taking the place of a kid would love to ask Moore in what situation would Tom Edwards ever be the answer? If the coach were to crash, get stranded at Denshaw and the team needed to feast on someone to survive until rescue could arrive.

2pm, log on here and check the team. We're still talking about Darren Moores sentence structure đŸ˜‚ Never change DATM Hard not to say much other than what a shame.

Well to be fair to Kian, the best goal scorer / cf we have , we loaned out. Rhodes 9 times out of 10 will get more goals than Ward and Harrat, probs put together aswell. I understand work rate , its very important don't get me wrong, but rhodes out of the cf's on our books, will do his fair share of work but will also score more goals than the others over a season.
If you asked most defenders in this league or any league for that matter, who would you rather play against rhodes or ward, i can almost gaurntee its Ward. You can mark Rhodes all game, then one chance and he scores or at least hits the target. I am not talking about rhodes back in the day either, i have seen both versions of JR and he is still more of a goal threat to defenders than Ward.
The club need to look at the options we have and put "who is a goal threat" and how can we become more of one at the top of the list. Teams come onto us and go at us, as they do not worry about what is going to come the other way currently.
Must have seen a different Rhodes to the one I've seen for the last couple of year then. As much as i like Rhodes you have a point, maybe he'd start scoring for us again under Moore, maybe he wouldnt, maybe we'll never know.

Whatever you say mate, you can't really argue that rhodes is still the best goal scorer we have at the club. if he plays he will score mroe goals than ward in any season. Ward is like playing a false nine up there, he runs around a bit but does nothing else. at least Rhodes gets more shots on target and is more of a proper goal threat than ward. Rhodes is not what he was no doubt, but he is still a more obvs goal threat than ward will ever be. But IF he plays and isn't scoring (bearing in mind we don't make chances) it's like playing with 10 men. It always was, even in his first stint.

I personally think, he could have gone a bit more defensive for me. If we are open today at any point, then i will wonder how the hell that happened. Maybe Moore was coached by the great italians of the 80 and early 90's?

Bet we get to find out in January, if the other option is buying a striker đŸ™„

Thinking we might grab a point today, then I saw Tom Edwards get off the bus đŸ˜† Wouldn't worry too much, it will take him at least an hour to get to the changing room. The useless fat glacial fuck

Surely bringing Rhodes back in Jan would mean less squad space to bring in new players unleess some are loaned out
Wonder if we there is a clause which could sent Edwards back as pure crap like nearly all the Stoke forum said
Today has 0 0 written all over it as town will go for a point

This is a daft Q, but on the theme of the defensive line up, why not stick Maxwell in alongside Nicholls?

Fucks sake.
What a shite team.
Hopefully the plan is bore everyone to death and then bring Diarra, Koroma and Harratt on.
Hudlin should not ever be starting when another striker is there.

Still a space for the striker from the summer window, bring roads back, loan Hudlin out and try for 2 strikers.

He did alright last week but what exactly is he supposed to do when everyone bar Sorba will be 30 meters away? Worse than what we did to Mounie in the Prem

Screams of 'keep it tight, go for it in the last quarter'. Which makes sense even if it isn't popular. Hull will expect a win, so frustrate them, try to nick it.
Fingers crossed it works, because conceding an early goal, especially with two holding midfielders, could lead to a long old afternoon if we have to come out of our defensive shape too soon.

The team looks a lot stronger with Hogg back.
I can see us containing them then bringing Harratt and Koroma on.
Big call starting Hudlin again assuming Harratt is fit.

Worse than what we did to Mounie in the Prem Shows how low our expectations are when Kyle Hudlin is deemed to have played 'alright'. It is a shambles that someone of such low quality is starting for our club in the Championship.

It is a shambles that someone of such low quality is starting for our club in the Championship. Made the point before about Hudlin, he did ok against Watford, but for a Championship club to be relying on someone like that is a real bad do. He's never a Championship footballer. As someone alluded to earlier if we concede early today it could get a long afternoon.

Just taking the place of a kid would love to ask Moore in what situation would Tom Edwards ever be the answer? If he were trying to convince the owner that the DoF hadn't brought in the sum total of a league two right back and a maverick winger from Europe to play as a striker.

I would question if Tom Edwards is even good enough for league 2? i think that would be a stretch for him.

Looks like a team focused on keeping a clean sheet and hoping for a moment of magic. Given what it's been like - I don't blame him!
