After the window closed there was a thread on here with a vote about where we expected us to end up this season. I went with us in a relegation battle but just avoiding it, because I didn't think we'd improved on last year's squad and our Budget and home attendances suggest the same. Maybe that was optimistic. Don't know about accepting it. Obviously I and probably most want a lot better, but realistically at present ( this season plus the last 2 since Warburton left) we don't look like we'll do much better. |

I hope he goes with Lloyd. His energy and persistence may just get us a goal. I've seen Cellar so many times with us now and a few as a sub for Slovenia, and still haven't seen anything from him of note. No goals, no assists that I remember. Occasionally he has got into good positions, but failed to convert. Possibly a spell on the Bench will do him good, but hard to see it right now. |

Good passing play from Madsen was at the heart of our decent attacking play 1st half especially. Good to watch, we weren't such an attacking threat after he was subbed off. Saito my MOM too, as he kept going longer. |

As if I needed reminding, I was watching the Slovenia Norway game during the International break. Celar came on for Slovenia with them 1-3 down and about 20 minutes to go. He got played in behind the Norwegian defenders bang in front of goal, with good movement to give him some credit, but with only the Keeper to beat he totally missed the ball trying to control it when a confident striker would have put it away first time on the volley. He then got beaten to a ball played into the box by 2 defenders and that was it from him. |

He was probably looking relaxed because he knew this time he wasn't going to be asked the regular question about injuries. |

Looked like Bayo scored with his balls. Gray's volleyed equaliser now for Plymouth showing what we are missing. |

He didn't have to answer the question or he could have referenced our financial limitations, competing with Clubs able to offer hugely better deals etc, but he didn't. Or perhaps he was just lying as you suggest. I got the impression he was happy with the players brought in but only "mostly" because we had missed out on the LB we were supposedly after, possibly Hayden and that we hadn't brought in another striker. |

This. I also saw and heard Marti say he was mostly happy with the summer signings, just after the window closed. |

I enjoyed us more last season when we had the pace and strength of Armstrong who despite not scoring too many and not having great ball control, still got past defenders and pulled others out of position opening up space we really didn't use enough. He was a threat and an entertaining watch. |

Ha! No. Don't remember him mentioning JCS then. Don't think he normally alerted the opposition to new or recurring injury problems like with JCS in those pre-game interviews, just the status on players who have been out before and without being that specific on the upcoming game. |

Marti has been giving injury updates prior to every game in his pre-match interviews. This just provided it in writing, with more precise Estimated return dates. |

Looks a good player on the ball to me, he is a good passer of the ball and moves faster than many think, his first goal for us an example. Think his defensive work is improving. |

I've always thought Warburton was a good Manager and with his career in Football and Finance, eminently well qualified to be a Director of Football with us. The League tables confirm his achievements with us as the best Manager we've had since Colin. Maybe he could work with Marti, possibly with Hoos in his current role, but doubt Nourry would welcome him as he would be a very strong candidate to replace him. |

According to Independent R's the Development squad got knocked out of the London Senior Cup 4-5 on penalties after drawing 1-1 after 90 minutes on a damp Tuesday night. It doesn't seem to have deserved a mention as yet on the Official. The report is dated 14 November 2024, so I take the chance that the game wasn't played on a Tuesday in the last century. |

Didn't the same people do last January well? Judging by our improved results from February to May I thought they did. We were quite lucky (or clever possibly) with injuries in that period. We've done badly since the summer window but obviously it's been a terrible time with the injuries, while the summer signings are bedding in. Personally don't think the summer intake was all bad, but unfortunately probably the key one Cellar has still not scored, though I think he's made a slight improvement in the last couple of games, and we didn't get another LB having let Larkeshe go. I'm ok with them doing the next window as long as Marti is well involved in player selection as I understand he was in the summer. |

Nobody has to be blamed necessarily. We are bottom of the table, not far off where we'd be ranked by budget size or attendance with around 8 1st team players out injured including our best players, at the same time as we have been trying to bed in new players. Mistakes have no doubt been made, but there is still time to stay up this season by working hard in training, at getting injured players back asap, and if possible financially bringing in new players where we need them in January. "Fan mobilisation" against Nouri or anyone else at the Club isn't going to help that. |

Marti said Colback had an operation, on his knee if I remember right, a couple of weeks back, after they had delayed that hoping the problem would clear by itself. |
