Doesn’t quite sit well with me a player on loan as skipper but a minor moan......trust Jolley.
Dixon doesn’t speak: how is he a better candidate as captain just because he’s been here a lot of years?

Josh Kay should have some fun and our new young CB pairing couldn't have a much tougher start than Quigs at Holker Street.
wouldn't worry too much I really don't know what to make of our team. They'll be either brilliant or rubbish - no half measures with us. :?
Not worried.

it's either Win/Lose or Lose/Win for me but our forum worriers want to retreat into a back 5 - with two double figure strikers and the L2 Wessi in the team :?

Was thinking more Brough in all honesty. Making a bloke who been here literally days and on loan to add seems like we are scrapping the barrel for leaders.

Cambridge look very sharp. Can see why they're top.

That challenge from banks that Goodwin keeps going on about was about 2 foot outside the area.

We're very deep even when we have the ball I feel.

Game getting more stretched. Quigley goes down in the box, looked like nothing and ref waves away Quigley’s appeals!
