As we have seen to our cost, you need something more than just talent to get out of this league
There is a physicality and a need go to smaller / open grounds and grind out results.
The mentality has to be right too |

Coulsden.
Even though he was never really 100% for even before he got injured at Wycombe he had a decent engine, could cross and could be tough in defence.
Real shame how it worked out for him.
I’m convinced if he had come off as soon as he was injured at Wycombe instead of trying to play on, he would have come back to the side. |

Wow. I don’t pretend to understand why that is other than perhaps what the fridge brings in terms of rollicking players, talking etc. maybe he he is a strong voice in the team / dressing room |

No idea as Burgess has played well but there is a shortage of “winners” it seems
We have to buck our ideas up and learn how to kill teams off.
Alex Mathie called it, the goal was coming and it did. Again |

Totally agree.
He has been like that since he arrived and all it needs is for him to be more positive on the ball.
I’m surprised KMac hasn’t changed this with him (unless he wants to play that way which would make no sense at all)
Get rid. |

Whatever the reason, that is an awful stat
KMac has to change more than just one or two players.
I can see 6 in at least
There is just a mental fragility to us, even with all the changes we have made to the squad. |

Is that true?
God that’s a lot.
Even a good chunk of those would have seen us promoted

Wasn’t McGoldrick driving to / from Nottingham a lot ?
No idea about Keane. Liked him as a player but proper sick note for us.
Hardly missed a game for Wigan and scored over 20 goals this season
Hopefully our new back room team will be better. Players will get injuries of course but we seemed to make things worse and had so many who were never fully fit (ademi / Huws / Nolan etc ) |

How many points have we thrown away from winning positions this season please?
Going to be a lot for sure. |

then if that were true, it comes down to style of play, decent coaching and having the measure of what is required to get out of this god awful league
I think we have the manager / coaching set up in place, just still have some questions about the mentality of some of our players when things get tough |

Be interesting to see their style of play v ours.
What they do better that has got them almost certain promotion
Smaller budget but clearly a decent manager / coach.
Plus a striker who was always injured when with us now scoring over 20 goals and almost injury free.
If Gwion Edwards scores will anyone be surprised ? |

Once again can’t score.
Our passing was poor and a lesson in game management once they went ahead
I think McKenna will change more players than we think

I’ve never agreed with people who say he gets more excited for the other team scoring than us but I wasn’t really listening when that equaliser went in and I honestly thought we had scored.
Not great is it ? |

Our style of play is very much trying to get in behind the full backs, our goals come a lot from the right too. (Most fans want a left sided Wes Burns to make it more balanced)
But apart from scoring more set pieces we need a striker who can pick it up and beat a player and hit the target from around the box and / or a proper target man in the mold of Darryl Murphy.
Our 4 strikers are all different. As I see it, Bonne is a finisher in the box, mainly feet. Norwood a crash and bash striker Jackson runs the lines in behind or wants over the top. I have no clue about Pigs tbh. I’ve seen his 20 goal season and his goals were a mix of decent strikes, headers and scrappy toe pokes. Possibly what we need but I can’t see him doing it unless he has a fantastic pre season and scores early on in the season.
Also our midfield should shoot more often.
Lots to sort out up front. Wouldn’t be surprised to see only Jackson stay, perhaps Bonne
2 new in. |

we as fans never know all the facts do we?
Flying to Dublin 3 times a week around training, playing and having to cope with a terminally ill mother, its a wonder he played at all
He never hit the heights after his leg break and given everything he has had to deal with (don't forget the impact on his immediately family too) it is not surprising.
I wish him well for the remainder of his career |

It’s does but if you have points to redeem on your cards you can have the value of those taken off the final cost.
I did it today for mine and junior 352s season tickets today. |
