Looking back to the great escape last season one player I hoped would stay was Jamile Matt he as done well at Newport with Podge but him and Thomas could have clicked here in the same way.

Matt is what Cardwell shoud be.

Sadly neither will ever happen.

Nothing is guaranteed in football we could have got a very experienced man in charge and he might cocked it up ( Slade )

We have shown we can win games but also shown we can easily be beaten without much of a fight,

We need a striker who can score goals , who cares if he runs around a lot ?
All we need is for him to put the ball in the net 20+ times in the season and we will ne happy,

Most teams this season know if we do not score they will win which has happened far too often,

Scoring the 1st goal in the game means a lot it puts you on the front foot but that will not happen very often if you do not have a decent striker.

Derided? By who? Don’t think I’ve ever heard the word “Cowley” without it being followed by gushing praise.

You must be thinking of Slade, who definitely is a much-derided ex-teacher.


We must be reading different threads. On this site they have been roundly castigated for their touchline antics, their attitude to officials, their tactics, and their gamesmanship.  I must have missed the gushing praise apart from that lavished on them by the visiting Gimps fans here to gloat.

It's strange. He looked one of the worst players to wear the shirt in recent years here, and yet he had been a real handful at Newport.

How are they able to get the best out of him when we couldn't?

Poor and simple, players come here and are brought down to the mentality of the clubs status, which at the moment is p!ss poor to anyone outside of our own, then move on and actually play to their abilities...we have a knack of taking an half decent player and completely destroying them... .

Bit of context - he's done ok at Newport, who themselves are very average indeed and will be in L2 again next season. It's not as if we lost a world class player. He was gash for us, generally, and he's been a bit better at Newport, but I wouldn't waste time pretending and regretting we lost a world beater.....

No, just a goal scorer, something which has been sadly lacking.

Perhaps the management style or tactics at Newport suits him better plus playing with another outstanding goal scorer too of course

If only we had both of them.....oh! I forgot, we did

Gash is such a under used word
