Sad to say but that team would urine all over our current squad.


Sorry but apart from Bennett and Newey that squad is gash. I think both the current and this squad are as dire as each other personally.

It is not so much that we are now a bad team it's the fact that every team we play now is world class in league 2. You can  now see why all other teams in our division spend millions on getting a team that is world class-it is nothing to do with managerial expertise-I can see us going places.

That's a fairly shite squad as well. It is tiny when compared to this one though. I think this squad is way more expensive as well. Money should have been spent on improving that squad, instead it got worse.

I can not ever remember a time following Town that I actually didn't have a favourite player. There are none at the moment.


That is a very very good, and sadly accurate, observation.

If you watched any of Rochdale yesterday they played a decent type of football and they are bottom of league 1, obviously with a few games in hand, so how many would the scunts beat us by at the moment?

I see little difference between the two teams. The team from then was poor with just a bit of talent spread throughout the team. But lacking passion and care for their club, as displayed at Burton on that day.
This team is the same, perhaps lacking a little more in skilled/experienced players (as our last boss showed them the door), and should we face another 'Burton' we'll see them fold again, and those with any modicum of talent will ride off into the sunset to the new club that their agent has prepared for them weeks in advance. Again.

That`s NOT the team from Burton Robo or anything like it.Whilst not the best that side at least tried and had plenty of willingness and a good sprinkling of youth.

This team TRIES though Mickey.  The first 10-15 minutes of almost every game shows that. The team that went down tried, and succeeded at home to Barnet with a tense but superb win. And that was that.  I doubt this team could win that game, or possibly WILL win it when we meet Barnet again soon.
But yes, the balance and setup of this current team is much worse, however the sum total is virtually the same.

Could well just be hindsight but both the two other horror teams could score goals and you can see that within the squad.Someone did a midfield comparison and I cant see a goal in this midfield at present.
