neio Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 The only possible explanation I can come up with is that whoever the Japanese winger is on Wednesday is going to be a better Galloway matchup.

Inexplicable IMO. Fans' best player and then dropped. Had a week off - could easily play 70m today and then again on Wednesday. I do not understand this club. Maybe we'll do well as the season progresses but at this stage I have no confidence whatsoever. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Among other things it means there's no-one coming up through the Academy. Makes me wonder why we let players go - such as that youngster who came on in the NPL as a sub and scored 3 goals - bloody brilliant he was. Forgotten his name now. As it is we might as well play Galloway on the LW until Nabbout is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr MO Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 (edited) When can we expect to notice the changes a new coach brings? Perhaps Rado was a smart man to realize that there isn’t much more he could do with this group of players.

moops Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Young saved our skin a few times, as well as Souprayen surprisingly, he's having a pretty good game. Behich once again our best on field, he has made a few good chances, nice free from Sakhi, he's better than the other fella. We are just missing someone other than Behich to play a killer ball, everyone else is a bit meh so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He therefore went to Petrillo and said so. As for Vidmar, what else has he got to work with? I don't resile from the view that he may well throw in the towel in due course.
