seems like we could have a new pairing.

however no quotes so pure speculation

Sundays horror show? What are they banging on about?

[paulmason]

The horror show was in the attacking third, not the defensive third. Talk about shifting blame for not getting 3 points.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Hall come in for either MC or KG.

[QPR1234]

id expect hall to be first one back in. but as other people have said.. our defense wasnt to blame for sunday. gorkks lost aerial battles and for me was worse than MC by some margin.

[Morris]

Our CBs were lucky that Forest went down to 10 men and didn't attack, because the way they were both playing we could of got done 3 or 4.

[G.T.P]

the way neil coated connolly and gorkss got taken off, i wouldnt be suprised if we have a new look pairing saturday. its certainly looking that way. tho i know hes god, i wouldnt bother, they have been superb all season

Both of them had a 'mare, 'kin awful.

[Jeffro]

Normally bang on the money, that rag is too.

I would like to see how Big Dan has progressed. It's easy writing him off due to his lack of chances in the Prem, just like we did with Routs...Look what happened there.

I'd be happy to see him get a go.

[Jeffro]

Shittu Connolly or Shittu Hall would be my pairing.

[QPR1234]

Shittu Connolly or Shittu Hall would be my pairing.

like somebody said other day.. i dont think connolly has "played his way out" of our team.. he had a blinder against reading and in all honesty was decent against forest. never looked troubled.

[BennyBoyRs]

Shittu Connolly or Shittu Hall would be my pairing.

I'm with you mate, with the former being my preference...

Whilst you are quite right that our attack was the obvious weak link, those two were dodgy to say the least.

I think NW is trying to deflect attention away from his own well known shortcomings. As well as he has done for us this season, (so no complaints at all on that side of things), he has gained a reputation for stocking up with crap strikers. Perhaps the real reason for so many being so ineffective though, is the way he gets them playing in a particular type of system.

As disappointed as I have been with the contribution of Rob Hulse so far, not least him being the cause of my sore throat this week, I cannot help but feel that he is not being helped by us playing the way we do. What is the point of launching long balls to a supposed "Target Man", when there is nobody near him to play alongside.

I'm possibly going to get ridiculed for this Paul, but I would certainly consider playing Adel as one of a front two. Not only is he less likely to do any damage from a defensive point of view, but I wouldn't fancy being a defender with him to worry about. If he is receiving the ball in and around the box, then not only has he the talent to hit the occasional shot on target unlike so many of those we tend to play up front, but would surely win loads of penalties when the inevitable fouls start coming in.

Or am I mad ?

Have to say Sunday's performance by both Connolly and Gorkks was as bad as I have seen them for sometime, had Smith and Faurlin not got injured, would not have been surprised to see them both hauled off.
Incidently I like both players and they deserve another chance after a great season but another display like Sunday and I can see both dropped for a bit.
