January…..
Why did we take a squad risk when Brown was struggling, one more injury and we are stuffed.
Eli got injured.
Absolutely badly managed and no risk mitigation planned.
We will get what we deserve.

But where would you have brought someone in, we’re short of centre backs, defensive midfield players, back up for Alfie and potentially CF”s, you can’t cover them all
Re: FFS time

All is true but we didn't bring in cover for any of those positions,so not sure that argument stacks up

This is true, and why you can’t have passengers like Dan Potts taking up squad spaces.
I assume we would’ve added Fred Onyedinma or Elliot Thorpe to the 25-man squad by now if they were fit.

+1. No ‘benefit of hindsight’ comments needed. We both identified this in January, albeit you beat the drum a lot more consistently than I did 😂

Still can’t believe RE saying at that press conference they’d left a squad space open for Locks. Absolute nonsense and I still don’t believe a word of it.
Mick Harford had said shortly before at a university lecture that Tom definitely wouldn’t play again this season.
Love this club and what the board and RE have done for LTFC, but that comment was about as true as saying we’d come out of the window stronger.

Why do we deserve to stay up?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Ches Fordroad on 15/3/2024, 15:50:25, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Why don't we?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Cuba on 15/3/2024, 15:57:53, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Because we haven’t won enough points.
Plus we have also squandered an opportunity to strengthen.
So the teams that win more points due to better squad husbandry will deserve to stay up.
We don’t deserve to stay up because of what happened to Tom or that we are running the smallest budget in the league.
It doesn’t work that way.
Re: FFS time
Posted by Music Critic on 15/3/2024, 16:06:31, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
To say that Everton and Forest have 'better squad husbandry' is a bizarre point when they're under charges for financial cheating and Everton have already lost points because of it
Re: FFS time
Posted by Ches Fordroad on 15/3/2024, 16:02:24, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
So the likes of Forest and Everton who've spaffed a fucking fortune on overpriced, overpaid players and flagrantly broken the FFP rules do deserve to?
Presume you'd call that sort of lunacy "better squad husbandry" .......
Re: FFS time
Posted by Cuba on 15/3/2024, 16:11:11, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
But even if they lose points and still get more than us then it doesn’t meant we deserve to stay up and they don’t
Unless your logic is that we should stay up because we didn’t get a points deduction?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Ches Fordroad on 15/3/2024, 16:28:59, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
You'll be devastated if we stay up because they have points docked, won't you?

Re: FFS time
Posted by HH on 15/3/2024, 15:40:45, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Yeah, he wants us to go back in time and sign another striker in January with the benefit of hindsight, after Brown was ruled out for the season in February.
So, in addition to the defenders he wanted us to sign, who does he want to omit from the 25 man squad?
Re: FFS time
Posted by AlphaHatter on 15/3/2024, 15:43:20, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Maybe should have recalled McAtee?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Cuba on 15/3/2024, 15:43:04, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
How many more times?
Brown was injured v Chelsea.
He was on the bench at Newcastle.
Didn’t mean we didn’t need to risk assess the situation and cover a reoccurrence.
Still you know best.
Re: FFS time
Posted by HH on 15/3/2024, 15:51:16, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
But he wasn't ruled out for the season until February after a subsequent training ground issue.
So, the reasonable expectation was Brown was returning.
I'll be perfectly honest, whether you had a respectable point or not has past us now after you keep posting it day in day out, relentlessly.
You seem to think that A N Other striker would be the instant success and saviour for our season. Anyone who knows football will know that's not always the case.
Equally, have you any idea how much that sort of striker would cost? Wood went to Newcastle a few years back for £25m. Are you suggesting we spend that sort of cash on a fucking punt, in the hope we stay up? It seems to be the antithesis of how we've been run over the last 16 years.
And, even if we did sign someone, you would probably be moaning about how we're stopping the development of Joe Taylor.
And, you're forgetting, for all we know, the club could have tried to do something but it was going to cost too much.
You've been told all of these responses before. But no doubt, you'll wake up with your daily occurrence of amnesia and post it all again.

Don't forget the Nakamba cover that was top priority as well
Re: FFS time
Posted by Cuba on 15/3/2024, 15:43:56, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
So you are saying he wasn’t too?
Who would you have seen as the priorities then?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Ches Fordroad on 15/3/2024, 15:49:42, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Without your ability to see into the future I'd have had a Nakamba replacement as the main priority but maybe, just maybe, there wasn't an adequate one available at the right price.
The last thing we should have done was go on a massive spending spree to cover all possible eventualities, there's only so many "what if" situations you can cover in a squad of 25.
I take it when creating your wish list you also had in mind the FFP rules that we need to abide by.

The fact is that you accept this is what I don’t get?
We have blown a once in a generation chance since the turn of the year.
Even if clubs get the deductions we can’t take advantage.
But you seem happy regardless?
Re: FFS time
Posted by Music Critic on 15/3/2024, 15:43:27, in reply to "Re: FFS time "
Why is disagreeing with you equate to being fukking happy? If anything, you're the happy one cos I'm sure you're looking forward to telling us that you 'told us so' when we get relegated
I said, at the time the Jan window closed, that I was concerned we didn't have central midfield cover. That was the only part of the pitch I was concerned about. The centre back injuries are extensive. You can't legislate for the sheer number of injuries there
I agree we should have not left the 25th squad place free
I'm also sure we would have tried to sign a centre-mid. It didn't work out. It happens. But making the same point over and over is dull, obsessive and troll-like

"I agree we should have not left the 25th squad place free"
It might turn out to be a masterstroke if we source a decent centre back free agent.
Re: FFS time

Yes, true. A big 'if' I'd suggest, though

Agreed, but big if's is all we've got to cling to this week!
There must be a league finishing somewhere in the world or a rogue centre back kicking his heels.

But each week these decisions are coming back to bite us but too many just make excuses for the club.
Why the hell is RE talking about a squad place for Locks.
It’s inconceivable he will play this season.
I don’t understand it.

Give over.
Defending the club at every opportunity is noble and you are a good chap, but doing so has really allowed the club to “get away” with things that in hindsight will be looked back at with disappointment.

Yeah, you're right - they're NEVER mentioned on here, are they? Never.
Oh and "defending the club at every opportunity" would suggest that you know me a lot less than you might think, I just don't choose to make a melodrama on Luton Outlaws out of every single thing and where I do have real concerns I raise them through the appropriate channels.
