Very disappointing news. I appreciate that some people do have concerns about the robustness of the safeguards but the fact that some people are outright against it in principle is pretty sickening really. I can appreciate that it goes against some people’s religious beliefs but those individuals should’ve all abstained instead of voting against.
I think the point he is quite rightly making is about people in glass houses. A lot of people seem completely incapable of simply appreciating one of our own players winning PotM without needing to get a 4,692nd dig in at Middlesbrough.
This squad is stronger than the one that got promoted with 87 points three years ago. I can’t believe we’re talking weaknesses in our squad following a draw with Lincoln City. For all your complaints about our squad, I’m betting that around 17 of our match day 20 would start for Lincoln if they could afford them.
I’m assuming they used the combine harvester instead of the roller at the Oval this week as by my maths they went through a period of 148 runs for 20 wickets. We could be about to see two county teams bowled out for bang on 83 in the same match.
Our bench will have Abbott, Bragg, possibly Jander, Fellows, Dobbin, Romeo, Mubama and Welly. You think we have a lack of options? They’d all start for Lincoln.
Mubama IS the second choice. Dobbin would be playing there in an emergency if the other two were injured. You aren’t realistically getting better depth than that for one position in the team. A few weeks ago I mooted BBD as being a backup option worth hanging on to, which was largely scoffed at. We aren’t getting a better player than that to come to a Championship team and basically never play, unless someone is injured.
