Bauer

Bauer

Frankie says in the LEP they were concerned about him before the game but he told them he was ‘fit to play’. Watching him at Bournemouth he did seem to be struggling towards the end of the game and despite the victory he didn’t look that happy at the final whistle, walking straight off the pitch.

That's shocking management imo if true. If you and the physios have concerns about a players fitness, they shouldn't play. Men like Bauer will always push themselves and need to be protected at times.

Absolutely

I mentioned on another thread, Newport County's new manager ( James Rowberry the youngest coach in the world to achieve the highest coaching badge) when asked why he had substituted a player who was playing well, said "The data we were reading pitch side was telling us certain muscle groups were going into fatigue and we didn't want to risk him"

For the record Newport County don't own their own ground, don't have a training ground, they share facilities with various rugby union clubs which means some mornings they end up training on school field as the rugby teams want to use their own training grounds. Their top 10 players earn less added together than Alan Browne does. In other words they don't have a pot to piss in.

How the feck are Newport County able to have data like that and we let a player make his own decision.

Sunday league management. If Bauer is out for any length of time joining the rest of the sick notes we signed, heads should roll, based on that alone

This just sums us up we want to be a Premier League club, the reality is league one. In the modern game a players decision should be only a small factor, seems under Frankie the tail is wagging the dog.

So what he actually meant by that was ‘We could see he was blowing out of his arse’, only young coaches are encouraged to expand their vocabulary these days.

I agree ducky, although I suspect Frankie knows our defense is gash without Bauer and slung him in, praying he'd make it to full time where after there would be two weeks to work on him and sort him out.
Unfortunately he only lasted twenty mins.

Same thing happened at QPR, only hope could we somehow get Hunts in a capacity to cover, lindsay and Storey are league one, Storey has improved, but still not good enough especially when he's expected to do more than just defend.
 
Back in training , probs to soon for weekend but huge boost

Wickham close to a return too , would love him to get a few games in December but just can’t see him staying fit

@Pennyhome - Did you mean Wickham? It mentions Evans on the above, and I wonder if you perhaps got mixed up?

Wickham won't be getting any league games in December as he's out of the 25.

No, Frankie - for some reason - mentioned Wickham as well:

Good news for Wickham.

Rather telling, and tiresome, that you jibe with 'for some reason' !!

I’m not sure it’s a jibe, it’s more to do with the fact it doesn’t really have much relevance because he can’t play in the league. We don’t get any updates on Harrops injuries or where Thomas is, so the Wickham update seems a bit irrelevant

Exactly.

It's telling and tiresome for me that Regardless has a pop for simply reporting some news he had missed.

Next time maybe I won't bother engaging with him.

Maybe he was asked "How's Connor getting on?" and it went from there. We only tend to get the answers from these press conferences.

That’s a very good point. The only thing we’ve got though is the North End Twitter, hence why it looks a bit odd

Aye I suspect Lancs Live will do a full write up which might provide a bit more context.

Frankie must be fed up of talking about these long term injuries, I know I'm fed up of hearing about them!!
