Kew Owl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 6 hours ago, The Dukeries Owl said: As daft as it sounds that defeat may have a positive effect. After seeing that scoreline Swansea will be convinced that they only have to turn up to get the 3 points. That’s something of an exaggeration, but they will undoubtedly be on a high after just beating Cardiff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 It’s a shame we haven’t got Buckley or Byers to come in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should absolutely have him training with the first team for the rest of the season. I really don’t understand the calls for Shipston. You do know he only made the bench for the U21’s the other week, right? He’s MILES off the required level. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorrallOwl17 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Good thing is it's 11 days away, and not this weekend coming. Fingers crossed any muscle strains or pulls could ease off by then. Couldn't have happened to two more important players could it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Can we recall Byers? not sure what the situation is with that, im guessing not. We were winning games without Poveda before he joined so thats not a massive problem, but losing Bannan would be a disaster in my view. Our centre of midfield is weak enough as it is now, thanks to the lack of incomings in January. We would be desperate for Windass to come back as a number 10, with Vaulks and Palmer/Diaby sitting. Or pray that someone like Shipston can suddenly make the step up. Otherwise we would be in the sh** 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Dupowls Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Losing these 2 is worse than the heavy loss. If we don't have our best 2 players available, the confidence in the entire squad becomes brittle. Fingers crossed they recover OK but I'm now very worried.... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Crawshaw Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I'm presuming Poveda won't be joining up with Columbia now for their 2 games next weekend. The lad will be gutted to miss out playing for his country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassetts Allsorts Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 It was a massive risk letting Byers leave on loan, it's going to come back and bite us on the backside. I don't think Röhl trusts Momo Diaby, there's potential but his decision-making just isn't good enough. But for me, it's either him or Palmer if Bannan is unavailable. I doubt Jeff Hendrick will be considered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Jeff Hendrick will be considered. Diaby is so slow on the ball. A boat on the Suez canal turns quicker than him. But we're hardly blessed with other options are we? We all said it at the time - to let Byers go and not bring in a replacement was such a poor choice to make. We're in big trouble if we lose Bannan for a long period of time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SettleForADraw Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 We’re going to have to adapt if we’re without them it’s simple. Love Röhl but don’t understand us going away to places like Millwall battling it out and earning the right to play then going kamikaze at a top side. Look at Millwall since Harris has come back in. Might not be pretty but it’s effective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had some bad luck with combo injuries at key times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of us have and have the opinion that he isn’t miles off but could actually add something to a very weak midfield. Like any young player he is nowhere near the finished article but would be more of an asset than playing Palmer or Momo Diaby in CM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
