If we let Williams go for Ibhere , we might as well pack up now . Williams was rubbish on Saturday but at least he knows where the net is
Its a fix to the end of the season if it happens and if we are playing long ball football Ibhere is better suited to that than Williams. I do think though is Williams does go, we might need someone else in as well to supplement Ibhere - Unless KC sees someone like Joey filling that void. Maybe he's building himself up to this when he was saying 'goal scorers will score goals no matter what level they play at' ? Maybe someone likey Joey would work well playing off a bigger target man? I guess all will be revealed very soon now

I guess all will be revealed very soon now All of those options would be a disaster . Williams cannot go unless a similar player is brought in with a goal scoring record . Joe is not a solution . Curle has already said he needs to step up a level . That’s not to the first team though.

Based on the latest snippet from KC on the chron site it is blatantly obvious that he is preparing us up for Jabo ibehre (a “focal point” for the attack). Make no mistake it is going to require a significant leap of faith for the fans to accept this, especially if it is effectively a one in one out with Williams. If ibehre is as immobile as Cambridge’s fans suggest then it is going to be a big ask.

I’m beginning to seriously fear where this is all heading . Asset stripping , talk of desperation signings , terrible football , massive injury list , plumetting like a stone and unable to beat very poor teams ..... The only really positive thing in recent months is the signing of Elsnik ( cox and Powell are untried )

Its not really heading anywhere yet as it hasn't actually happened. Williams, Pierre, Turnbull... all still here. Sold 2 players a lot agreed with selling based on wages. TALK only. Football no worse thank was. I think it's marginally better, which says very little. Every team gets injuries, it doesn't mean anything. We're not plummeting like anything. We've been terrible all season and improved very slightly. We've been unable to beat very poor teams for 2 years. Cheer up and don't panic Mr Mainwaring (yet).

plumetting like a stone
We are a point better off now seven points clear of the drop... The rest is an all too familiar tale of woe all of which |I agree with, and to think 3 years ago we were ripping this division to shreads, the last three years have really seen mis-management of the highest order.

Also 16 points from safety - with 17 games left! Not time to panic yet, but I agree if two of Turnbull, Pierre or Williams go and are not adequately replaced then is the time to start panicking! New keeper still to come yet of course too

We could sign Elton John and you'd have some people trying to make sense of it "he'll do a job".
Half time entertainment might improve.

Whatever way you try and spin it , we are going backwards in every way possible . It’s not at panic stations , but it is in constant decline . .... and there is not much room to decline much further .

I see Marc Cullen has just signed for Carlisle. If only we could compete with clubs of their size for signings!!!

I can't see Elton being very good at "Shoot the skip" unless he ditches those platform boots

Bob hope? No hope? I saw that apparently Cullen is at least 2 weeks away from fitness so there’s no way they’d let their main man go with no instant replacement.

Don't think so as we've not got a pot to **** in! Cullen still a couple of weeks from full fitness anyway... As for Jabo signing for us hopefully it's bollox as he's injured anyway...Jabo Ibehre missed Cambridge United’s clash with Exeter City due to a hamstring injury, Colin Calderwood confirmed. The U’s striker was a surprise omission from the squad in Devon, with Ade Azeez starting alongside Rushian Hepburn-Murphy in his place. “He’s struggled all week really, if I’m honest,” Calderwood said. “Earlier in the week he tightened his hamstring and he hadn’t trained since Tuesday so an adjustment was made. “It wasn’t a shock to us, we done our work, we were ready and we probably didn’t do ourselves enough justice.”

I hope its b0llox but all the above is code for a deals being done and the negotiations started on Tuesday so they wont play him. Or it could be that he is injured!
