I don't think Potter has been doing enough. I suspect he has been about 75% fit.
Taylor hopefully an option off the bench and Mattock only in because Purrington not match fit.
We can't keep putting Wood in every time Ajayi or Ihiekwe make a mistake. With respect he isn't the future and we need to find out over a few games together whether the other two are long-term viable.
O'Donnell had a shocker at Crewe but was dropped after staying in against Shrewsbury and doing nothing wrong. Nothing personal but I don't know why we got Rodak in. We aleady have a young novice keeper and two experienced keepers who are prone to the occasional error. Rodak hasn't improved that situation. He would be decent emergency cover for someone, but that isn't what we needed.
Time for JCH to step up. I would like to think he would be chomping at the bit. If he doesn't perform now he never will.

Don't start bringing that rubbish talk over here T71 (AKA GWRU), you'll be spouting your bile about Forde next!
Try going to a game or two and watching who can actually play football, you may change your opinion (although I doubt it!).
It's a joke this site. It's ok to post even though you've packed up going. I go to every home game the lot. Had a season ticket for years. So Forde is a player, Newell has the bottle. I beg to differ.
lets play it on the floor and get there defence backing when taylor gets running at them
I think that will be close to the team Hills, depends on Taylor's fitness, maybe JCH to start with Taylor on the bench?
GWRU, we will agree to disagree, I am not a fan of singling players out and calling them names (and based on what, I'm not sure?). Last week at Bristol (I presume you did not go as there were only a couple of hundred made the trip, but maybe read the match report?), Williams and Newell were possibly the only two players who played at their potential, with the later having an excellent game and being our only creative outlet.
All I ask is to judge the players on what they contribute, some are battlers, some are footballers, none of them give less than 100% every game, and in my opinion, all show bottle.

Just feel we have to play 3 in midfield. Vaulks a fit Frecks then either Wiles or Towell. Ball right forward, Johno left. Williams switching wings.

Possibly, One thing is for sure, we need a result who ever plays!

hopefully from what frecks and warne have said about the players having an inquest actually transfer onto the pitch and we start seeing the players playing as 1

Vaulks just isn't good enough in my opinion. He is a cover player at best.
A player has to be excellent at one aspect of the game to be worth a place in my assessment. Either an excellent passer, really good finisher, really quick, particularly strong, a good reader of the game, tricks to beat a player, or whatever it is. Vaulks is competent at some aspects but no more than that. Same goes for Forde. On that basis neither bring much to the table and wouldn't get in any side of mine.
JCH - he has the size and strength to be a threat but he hasn't done it consistently over a long period of time. Now is the time for him to step up and realise his potential, or I would look to move him on in January. Last chance saloon.
I am a fan of giving young players a chance, but it is a big ask to put them into a team on a winless streak and ask them to change things. It is time for some of our experienced players together with Warne, Barker etc to man up and get it sorted out. Give the Wiles and Hinds of this world an opportunity later in the season when we are hopefully firmly mid-table and not so vulnerable.
"JCH - he has the size and strength to be a threat but he hasn't done it consistently over a long period of time. Now is the time for him to step up and realise his potential, or I would look to move him on in January. Last chance saloon."
I agree with that Smiler.
You could argue he hasn't had a run of games to prove himself, I'm not saying that's an excuse, just that I'd like to judge him more after 4 or 5 games in the starting line-up in this league.
So I agree, assuming Warne starts him , and I would argue he should as we need to look at the team without Moore, JCH has a chance to prove his worth, or not. I think we only gave him a one year deal? , so he also has a new contract to play for if that's the case.
So, plenty of incentive for him, I hope he steps up, and we need to see goals not just effort, it would be nice to see.
this match and the next 3 so thats 1 away 2 at home 1 away
this is warne test of capability he has had a year in charge as a manager stop the bullshine interviews if a player is crap ******* him privately and tell the press and us the players who were crap have been named and shamed in the dressing room
he has stop the square peg in round holes formation
be brave and try a new formation with the players you have got 4 5 1 is crap do you think jch will be better than moore
its a formation that doesnt work as this level as we dont have the players to support the lone striker quick enough
try 4 3 3
with jch ball and taylor get blackpools defender on the back foot
Warney should know his best team by now. The players are primed before each game. It is down to the players to follow Warney's instructions on the field of play. If they don't, they might just as well have a kick about on Blackpool's sands.

you would think so after a year in the job and recruiting these players who fit his criteria
so it puncher rodak in goal and for the forseeable i question this
