So at what point do we bring Zanzala back? Surely we have absolutely nothing to lose by giving him a go under a new manager!

Do we have a recall clause?

Don't think so BUT who decided signing Holloway when he can only train with the squad at the end of the week? that's beyond belief and underpins our disastrous policy on signing and recruitment!

No realistic difference. Far too many long balls. Less football to speak of. Still toothless up front, but that's lack of player ability. I'm positive generally, but I fear for things to come - playing top half teams busting a gut to get promoted/get in playoffs.

Well that`s the easy game out of the way, the last 8 fixtures are very difficult matches how many Pts can we get, the 4 homes games will probably go like the other 19 games, our record at home against the current bottom sides up to Bradford is P10 W0 D6 L4 even getting 4 draws would be good.

With that being the case RE Holloway It begs the question will he be playing in the BCD game on Tuesday?

Yes because he's always played in the midweek games I.e. Scunnny and Northampton

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Zanzala is injured and out for the rest of the season and I don't think there awas any clause that we could bring him back from Exeter anyway.

So much for the season out injury. So is there a bring back clause and if so will we use it?

Why would we bring Zanzala back? He's STILL the worst strike option we have had all season!

Does his loan terms prevent him playing in the rearranged game?

If that was supposed to be one of our so called cup finals then i am afraid there was no fight till the death in them Banks,Rooney,Taylor were pretty poor today no grit and determination thats whats needed instead of rolling up our sleeves when we went a goal down we rolled over like old hound and the rest was pretty toothless again.... :oops:

Rooney or Banks..... IMO One or the other in the team but not both together, since Rooney came back Banks hasn't been anywhere near his early season form . Both need the ball to shine, currently neither is shining.
