The Afghans have got on the plane back to the Taliban after that …. How on earth Kabamba is picked in front of Etete i will never know . He is not a goal threat . Guthrie is a massive loss - our best player .

How and why the f*** has McWilliams been selected at RB ahead of Harriman?
Next he’ll be picking Lewis to play in goal ahead of Maxted.

Harriman is 28 years old, played consistently at L1 level, mainstay of our defence when we got promoted from this level under Curle. Must be wondering what he has to do to get a game. I take it back though: Sowerby should be the one to make way for Harriman. We need McWilliams' bite in midfield and Sowerby has been poor.

I am literally lost for words.
Zero creativity. Zero understanding between players. Zero patterns of play
Kabamba is as bad as Seal. Why isn't Harriman playing RB?

Oh dear. After 55 minutes if you had to pick the best 11 of the 22 on the pitch there wouldn’t be one claret shirt - pretty appalling, needs some subs to mix it up.

Things will all be better when we solve our two year striker problems by buying a couple of proven strikers….. I predict 2023.

Etete for Sean McWilliams.
Great. Straight out of the Keith Curle playbook of substitutions. Playing ****, creating nothing in the way of service and struggling to gain control of the midfield? No problem - just throw on an extra striker and lump it long against giant centre backs. Sure that won't unbalance the side in any way.
Starting to fear that Brady is seriously tactically naive.

To be fair he’s built a wafer thin squad with the worst striking options since Greg Campbell et el and midfielders with zero creativity. He was always a cheap unproven option and it’s showing. The only thing that’s buying him time is that most supporters can see that he’s not being backed and has to shop in the bargain basement. That said he did come out with the usual ‘I’m happy with the squad I’ve built’ mantra which would suggest he’s out of his depth. Il admit I’d still doubt his credentials even if he was at a club who could sign some decent players. Unfortunately it’s apparent that these are the best players we can afford as a club under the current owners. That helps John out a bit imo

i think the supporters expectations are way above those of the club . Our budget is poor and we would do well to finish top 10 . Even moderate teams pay more than we do . We rely on picking up cheap deals that we turn around - and then the players leave for more money once given a lifeline . Make no mistake , the best players in this team will also leave . The owners do not invest in this club and it shows .

I think that sums the position up in a nutshell Is it any wonder we can’t survive in league one? It’s just so disheartening and a massive credit to the fans who still turn up even though there’s no light at the end of the tunnel.

Jon Brady: "How do you feel about the Cobblers' midfield?" Cobbler: "I think it would be a really good idea!"

I’m not surprised with us having Kabamba as our main Strike force who hasn’t done it anywhere previously was at do we expect. I’d be intrigued to see what the analysis did to show him as a quality signing. Etete is a young player learning his trade. Rose I think should be ok at this level but clear that he is not performing either. Where is Jon’s ‘Bums off seats football’. I’ve only seen it once this season! It’s going to be a hard season and I fear for Mr Brady

I’d get rid of him now.
It’s apparent he’s built a squad with no creativity or attacking threat. According to posters on here who are attending games he is tactically inept and his substitutions baffling. Who stays in a job given those failings?
What more is there to say??

Very, very poor. Only got better in the last 10 minutes in that at least we attacked, allbeit with very little quality. We need a plan when we make substitutions, not just throw bodies forward and definitely not Kabamba and Etete together. At least Flores looked bright when he came on and Etete did OK. He must surely play ahead of Kabamba every time, if we're going to keep playing the lump it up from the back style. Hardly the "bums off seats" style Brady promised us. Not a single shot on target in the whole game.

Maybe John’s ‘bums off seats ‘ quote has been misinterpreted. They’ll surely be some bums off seats soon given the lack of entertainment.
