Don’t get me wrong, I’m a Songo fan but remember he played for us at a lower level in a winning team - Fane has had the challenge of playing a level higher in a struggling side.

Yann helped make us a winning team, his performances were immense. He would add some steel and experience. No brainer for me, would improve us massively

Can't be that deluded as I agree 100% with you and others about Yann but not sure Bratford will let him go without a fee.

I think Songo'o's touch is definitely a bit tighter than Fane's, but also think CityShrimp makes a fair point that part of the reason he is more reliable is because he's a bit more sensible with his decisions on the ball. Also think it is a fair point worth making that the jump from L2 to L1 does need to be considered.

The Accrington game showed how much of a threat Weir and Shaw can be when they've got that license to go forward, and the addition of Taylor when he's back from injury will increase our options there. Would be nice to have a real specialist at DM to help with this - if DA reckons Songo'o can hack the jump in level then I'm happy going with that. I'd be surprised if there was a fee if I'm honest. Out of contract in the summer, not used much by Hughes and they've got a massive centre back from the League of Ireland joining at the start of January.

Anybody who knows anything about Football knows it isn't 6 at the back or 6 defenders. I die a little inside everytime i read or hear it, it is pathetic.


Stop being so pathetic. You may be delighted with being bottom of the league and believe that your pal is beyond criticism, but I'm not. I've repeatedly said that we need two up front. I didn't have a problem with the formation & line-up against Accrington, because we had an attacking option, not just defensive. It is no coincidence that this was Stockton's best game all season, because he had someone up with him. I would prefer Shaw as the more defensive of the midfield three, with Gibson in his more natural position, but as long as we have more options going forwards, I don't mind. The definition of insanity... On Thursday, Derek did something different and it worked. I reckon it would have worked against Port Vale as well. Derek got it spot on, on Thursday, including the change in formation to counter Accrington's changes, long may it continue.

Lovely post but it is all bollocks i am afraid Keith. Chuffed to bits that you didn't have a problem with the team selection and happy for you to think that Derek Adams took notice of your drivel on here. Not going to engage in anymore of this rubbish with you, i am going to enjoy seeing us play at our highest level for the 2nd season in a row instead.

I'm chuffed that Derek finally took notice of my advice on here. It's just a shame that he didn't get there sooner, because he'd been reading how pleased you were with losing, with one shot on goal for so long. Now Derek has clicked on that most of the rest of us, quite like a bit more attack, hopefully we'll pick up enough points to stay up. Sorry Berlin Wailer, you might need to get used to more than one shot per game.

There is no feud, there is somebody who knows what he is on about and somebody who talks bollocks.

Long live the King.

We know you talk bollocks, but that's what it is all about. Even you must be enjoying us playing two up front?
