Still not solved 9 months later. And today bit us the arse well and truly. These are the issues that I would expect our Manager and bloated back room to sort but no they no better.

Behave. We’ve had Donacien, VDC, Tanton, Williams and now have a fill in. Can’t you just accept there’s been injuries and such a thing as transfer windows??

Poor effort at trolling.

Walton in multiple threads after a defeat shocker….FFS give it a rest and stop revelling in negativity

It’s really sad!

No I cannot accept its fucking rubbish recruitment

You don't have to swear Tim your 60 odd not 12 and remember we have had injured rb and we have used 7 this season which must be a record

His swearing is by some way the least offensive aspect of his posts.

Mandy gave a penalty away, so ask how many penalties have been given away by the rest of the back four during their careers. Yes, it was poorly timed, but what about all the times he got it right and put the ball out of danger? He's been asked to play in every position apart from goalie, centre back, and striker. He's made a really good job of it too, so it's hardly fair to expect the next Albert Holmes type of display from him.
If not Mandy,who are we playing at full back, because we've lost a shed load of players this season, and the cupboard is bare. We've had a 19 year old kid, through to a 38 year old suffering long term injuries this season,and I don't think I can ever remember us suffering so many crocks in one season. Some have been freak like Tyrone Williams suffered, some have been collision injuries, while others have been pulls and the like. I suppose that if we lower the average age of the squad, we'd think we'd have fewer long term injuries, but Cook won't have a massive clear out, it's not his style, and I don't blame him.

But Brittas & Walton demand ‘a massive clear out’. Never suggest who should replace them.
Pity the great Albert isn’t 50 odd years younger. Mind you Walton would still moan about the greatest full back on either flank we’ve had in my time not being good enough.

In my humble opinion mate, Albert was good enough to play in the top two divisions.

Repeated clear outs is what got us relegated to non-league

I agree, we need pruners, not Musk's chainsaw.

Agree with you. And if Mandy doesn’t make that tackle against Accrington we wouldn’t have been playing yesterday!!
