Another game for this complete failure of a squad before any changes can be made. Quite a few could be playing the last game for us. Drastic changes are needed, send all the loan players back, pay off Revell, Hanley & Richards. Transfer list Kasim & Bowditch. Let McGugan & McGivern leave.

Maybe harsh on a couple but something needs to change big time. Thoughts on this game people? Last away game they won 7-0 at Oxford but have drawn the last two at home 0-0. Also, the return of Jacobs and Toney to add even more spice.

Who in their right mind would take kasim or bowditch off our hands bearing in mind the contracts they are on - if JED rated them so highly perhaps he’d take a load of his crap with him to orient. I’d be tempted to keep mcgugan who has shown flashes of quality and long looks to have goals in him but you can’t really argue with the rest. I’d still be hopeful that a league 2/conference team might take revell off our hands. It all really depends on what/who we bring in.

Mcgugan will go higher, even if it's a top end league 1 team (maybe sc***horpe?) If he were staying he would of signed by now

Will anyone else want a player who can only play 1 game a week? I find it hard to believe that after training with us for over 3 months he still can't manage 2 games a week !

Bowditch and Kasim will be wanted by some L2 teams, possibly on loan. Maybe, Waters also to get some confidence back in front of goal. McGugan has quality but isn't a grafter, something we desperately need now. Eleven JJOT's would be great.

Correct !
The players have come here on good money and they will not give that up .
Someone may take a risk on Revell or Rico in division 2 but the rest are poor and probably conference level .
It’s a real mess .

I reckon a top end league 1 would take a gamble, even to use him from the bench. As others has said in a good team doing well mcgugan would be a decent addition. We need grafters that he is not.

We've been so starved of good football that we'll grasp on to one or two half decent performances as evidence we have better players than we have. League table doesn't lie.

Does anyone know how the transfer window works - can we expect to see 1 or 2 additions tomorrow or is it more likely to be for Southend?

Unfortunately I believe JFH has exhausted all the options he has with this squad in an attempt to find the winning formula. After four months of trying, he can now safely say that there IS NO winning formula for the utilisation of this squad!

I would keep Ingram, Taylor, O'Toole, McGugan, Richards, Powell and Long.

All the rest can sod off as soon as we find replacements!

Prediction- Cobblers 1-3 Wigan.

He needs to pick the same team that started against Blackburn. Pierre aside.

Could you please explain why you would keep Richards? Other than sentimental reasons.

The only one I'd 100% keep is JJOT.

I believe the primary reason why Richards only has one goal to his name this season is because he isn't being utilised correctly by JFH. He has never been blessed with pace but has a gift for finishing chances. He needs pace around him on the wings and good midfield service to create chances which he then converts at a very good success rate. However, this season he has either been shafted out up front on his own, or as ad part of a duo with Revell, or with no pace around him on the wings.

I remind you that he has been our club top goalscorer for the last three consecutive seasons. I still believe that, utilised correctly, he remains a League One quality striker.

My Aunt Maude is a medium (and well fit for an 80 year old - saw her stocking tops the other day when she was rendering down some pigs feet, nearly shot me bolt) and she says the score will be 8-0 tomorrow....


......but she can’t see to which team.

Assuming it’s Teyn that’s gonna really help our GD? Got to.

It all points to a hammering of epic proportions doesn't it.

Fair enough, that's your view. However, I disagree. He's done nothing this season to suggest otherwise and at 35, age is not on his side.

Transfer window officially opens at a minute past midnight, however transfers won’t atart to be registered (paperwork wise) until Tuesday as tomorrow is a bank holiday.
