Ohh Tommy Johnson

It's an interesting discussion. I don't see enough live matches to form an opinion, and generally take the view that all the players will make mistakes, but some are more obvious than others and so commented on. We seem to react more to a chance given up / goal scored against than a chance missed at the other end. If Macca had put away one or two of his chances (from the highlights at least 1 should have been put away), then we would have won the game, just as much as if Rawlinson had closed down the MKD player. Mistakes are made all over the pitch, it seems unfair to highlight certain players.

I don't think we heard all the questions, so I wonder if this is a fun piece, but the more substantive information will come elsewhere. I think the purpose really is to show Macca as relaxed, fun and enjoying his time at Notts and not a lot more. I liked it though.

I had lost hope after 3, but then, BOOM, inspiration struck.. 4 again!! Wordle 815 4/6 ⬜⬜????⬜⬜ ????⬜⬜????⬜ ⬜⬜????⬜???? ????????????????????

Guess what? 4. The bizarre thing is that after 3 goes I had no idea and took a wild guess. I am destined always to get a 4! Wordle 814 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜???? ⬜????⬜???????? ????????????⬜⬜ ????????????????????

This is the attitude that irks me. If everyone criticised Macca on the same basis (i.e. every time he missed a shot or a pass went astray) then we would have a very different view on his abilities. It seems that every season there has to be a scapegoat, and it seems pointless.

Pulled that one out of the bag... standard 4. Wordle 808 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ????⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜????????⬜⬜ ????????????????????

I didn't think this was going to happen..but then it did. Standard 4! Wordle 807 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜???? ????⬜????⬜⬜ ????????????????????

to be fair @Piethagoram I don't think the first one is quite accurate... they are building 47 new hospitals before the next election aren't they? I know our hospital can be classed as 'new' now they have completed the new reception area, and I believe Kent and Canterbury has a new coat of paint! On a less sarcastic note... William Harvey in Ashford has what the staff refer to as a 'new hospital'. My partner has been a regular visitor this summer, and the only new hospital on the site is a small private facility although there is building work on a small new block which may well actually be a car park. As far as I can see there is no new NHS hospital on site, at best there will be 3 or 4 more wards.

One of those where you just need to get the right option.. standard 4 this morning. Wordle 804 4/6 ????????????⬜???? ????????????⬜???? ????????????⬜???? ????????????????????

Luckily I was on holiday so forgot to attempt it...but I was back today with a standard 4 (although when I went back in to copy the stats it let me have another go...so it thinks I got it in 1!!) Wordle 802 1/6 ????????????????????

We got to see The Home Service who were very good, albeit they were missing John Tams. They had a replacement in but it was the first time he had played with the band, not that it was obvious except they seemed slightly out of tune (figuratively speaking) with each other , They hadn't even rehearsed all together! and you could only be impressed with their musicianship. My daughter is now stuck in Italy since her flight was cancelled. EasyJet just spent the last couple of days lying about having booked them on another flight, before finally admitting they hadn't done it. Now one of her friends parents is driving down to Basel to meet them! So, after 2 weeks holiday, I need a break!

I was hoping to go camping in Edale this weekend... but my youngest has made plans with friends all week, so that has gone by the by. It's Folk Week here in Broadstairs, so I may get a couple of gigs in instead... or I'll clear the loft!! I'll be keeping up to date with the game via various websites and message boards!

This is terrible news. I hope he makes as speedy recovery as possible and is back in the squad earlier than thought (ideally before the end of the season).

Wordle strikes back!

This is a 'not lose' game for confidence reasons. Another tonking and it's beginning to look like a long road back confidence wise which will make the season tougher than it needs to be (and it's tough enough already). We will come good in the end, but a loss this weekend will delay that a bit. What I would go for: Stone Tipton - Cameron - Chicksen Bostock - Palmer Namane - JOB - Crowley - Randall McGoldrick Scott (I know I know, but I think he gives us slightly different options up front!) Subs: Slocombe, TAR, Jones, Rawlinson, Langstaff My concern with that line up is there are an awful lot of changes, so I expect it to be Tipton in for Baldwin and other than that pretty much the same side as started against Sutton.

I agree on Scott - I think he is the better forward. I think that he is more clinical and may well have a higher goals per chance ratio (I've not checked). Personally I am pretty excited about the extension. I agree that it is probably in response to clubs sniffing round, and only to ensure that we get a decent compensation for losing his services... but that means that we have a commercially aware set up and gives us he best opportunity to improve the squad when he moves on. I would also be offering Bostock an extension.
