Watched the highlights on LUTV and Wood, Erwin and Ant look very sharp. Could be a potent 3 that

Better enjoy that excellent observation while he still here. The pay off situation means he may not leave sharpish.

That supporters should get behind the team and not boo anyone (him in this case) in it. Which I agree with. All about the 'injured' 6 at the end of last season. But it's time we moved on, new coach, new start - and we will never get to the bottom of what actually went on anyway, so let's get looking forward. Life's too short to be looking back. By the way, we could do with some wingers!

Wingers?? That's a great idea grip. Maybe UWE might want to take note!!

Was at the game last night must admit I didn't hear that much booing of Bellusci so maybe it has been a bit over-stated.

Anyway my views on the game was this, first time out so don't expect for us to be fully up and running.

First half we did struggle at the back/midfield 3-5-2 (think it was this) needs work. My players of the half were Silvestri who made 2-3 really good saves, Byram who looked good pushing fwd on the right, had intent and some good moments. Chris Wood looks a good signing, he showed pace/power and ball control looked like someone defenses would fear.

Player who were below standard first half, well Bellusci got bullied, beaten in air all the time, Cooper looked a bit nervous on the ball like last year, he should be better. Ajose was on my side of the pitch so I watched him closely, he needs to take people on more and needs to be able to find a good cross, it is funny really cause it looks like he should be better than he is but on this outing nothing has changed for him as he lacked any real impact on game. Rest of players were OK/average in that half.

Second half well Bamba was a star, made defence look much better (4 at back as well helped), Berardi looked good he should play in my opinion, a real defender like Bamba.Taylor was solid.

Midfield looked average, Sloth/Bianchi did nothing, like nothing at all, made no impression and Cook looked a bit lost in the position he was playing.

Up front we looked less dangerous than in the first half, super Steve scored and did OK but not as good as Wood/Ant/Irwin were in first half, those 3 looked better than him thank god.

So to Billy Sharpe well he ran a bit and er that was it, no threat at all in this game, i'm guessing he knows his time is up.

Anyway it is all about opinions and those are mine just on this game alone which I know is only the start of things.

On that I would say players that can do a job i.e. better than average (based on just this performance and say second half of last season) would be;

Silvestri
Bamba
Berardi
Taylor
Byram
Mowatt
Cook
Murphy (inj)
Wood
Antenucci
Irwin

Killock and Phillips both did OK yesterday, too early to judge them yet.

So I think we need a holding midfielder, wide player and a experienced CH to partner Bamber and then we seem in OK shape

Any coach manager who plays Cooperat this level is doomed to be sacked very soon .
The bloke is awful.

Agree0 Disagree2

11 Jul 2015 22:12:25
Thought Cooper and Bamba played well together at the latter end of last season.

To all the fans that were booing Bellusci at harrogate; move on, what happened last season is history, give the guy a second chance and why oh why are you booing our own players? Be united and united in your support for the mighty whites. We all are much more optomistic than this time last year, hopefully we'll get stability and you boo boys could wreck that if it continues.
Marching on TOGETHER

Why was they booing?

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2015 13:22:16
because he let the club and fans down so perhaps he should come out and say sorry I was in the wrong

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2015 22:01:11
get over it what have we got to gain by booing? now answer this what have we got to lose. only an idiot would boo own players and that comes from a regular at millwall's den where they always boo their own players come on leeds fans be better than that please

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2015 22:37:20
Agree, but we could do with a couple of wingers imo

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Jul 2015 11:54:11
Christ, its York next . if we couldn't beat Harrogate ;)

From listening to 20 mins I nthe second half, Berardi sounded busy, got forward and got stuck in

Smitch. Didn't we lose to Harrogate last season, so a draw is progress!!
Once we have some wingers, we should be OK

Believable0 Unbelievable0

11 Jul 2015 08:40:25
Stand out players for me were bamba, Taylor, cook,silvestri, sloth, Erwin, wood, doukara and berardi played quite well too

Agree3 Disagree0

11 Jul 2015 09:01:11

Apparently Delph off to citeh for buy out clause of 8 million, think we have a sell on clause? Could come in very handy, maybe even holding a few deals up? Hope so, still a few short in my opinion to compete at the right end of the league?
