And you're blaming AN again.
Was it Neil's fault Sean Maguire was hit in the eye with a football?

Nope it is the biscuits fault in old Cajun folk law , the saying directly translates he who eats wrong biscuits gets injured. We are six games in with a great start , but it's a marathon , if we lose a couple more we will be down to bare bones again. But don't panic , its a simple fix , custard creams !!!!!!

I’d say we have missed the clinical striker who would have put the game to bed against Swansea and again today

What is a clinical striker?
When a team buys a ‘clinical striker,’ do they all come off?
How much do these ‘clinical strikers,’ cost?
Just look at the leading scorers in the Championship;
Baston, Swansea, a £15m player, he was loaned out last season and this season has made a good start!
Mitrovic, cost Fulham £23m, probably the best striker in the Championship, but should be for that price!
Bamford at Leeds, £7m rising to £10m!
Grabban, yesterday’s opponent cost £6m, transfer fees totalling over £10m!
Lyle Taylor, Charlton and done the rounds for very little transfer fees and is 29!

So a very different history these strikers, all had plenty clubs, they have scored at some of their previous clubs, but others they have failed!

Up there in the leading scorers is someone called Daniel Johnson, who would have thought!
Also Jordan Hugill, the bad comments that he got when he made the North End team!

Yes, it is ok wanting a ‘clinical striker,’ but they can cost a lot of money and they all do not come off!
I see Grabban won Forest the 3pts yesterday, is he in the ‘clinical striker’ category??
It is a game of hit and miss and so far PNE are scoring goals and managing without the ‘clinical striker,’ if we had signed a ‘clinical striker,’ would he have got us wins at Swansea and Forest, who knows??

We don't need much chief, just someone to work very hard occupy opposition defence and allow our talented midfield to boss the game

You really are a smart biscuit ??!! Well done, sir ?
 
The Leeds documentary on amazon is worth a watch
It’s all going rather well at the moment and they look on track for promotion.
But if they come third and end up in the playoffs which is of course a possibility and don’t go up you think to yourself just how quickly the wheels could come off.
So my point is we are now living with such a fickle sport, one that can lead you to such great glories as we’ve seen with city who it feels to me where in the lower leagues not all that long ago and such tragic situations such as bury and Bolton all through the long term commitment from the owners.
It’s hard to imagine we will ever see the dizzy heights of the premiership with our funding streams but conversely we won’t see the doom and gloom of financial Armageddon.
So what to do, well for now it’s Hobsons (not my Hobson) choice I guess?
 
Binged the Leeds series this week, really enjoyed it, amazing that they have been out of the top flight now for 15 years , and the opposition fans towards the end singing “Leeds are falling apart again” haha loved it
 
‘Leeds United performances in March’ is my answer to the question, ‘what is your favourite footballing joke?’
 
Biscuit (just a test) - Lol who did this, love it ? ? me thinks one of the coders or admin is having a laugh

Ahh you got me on this one , I will have to reference the ancient Cajun folk book to get the real answer.

But I will take a punt at , *if you slide down a newly varnished banister naked"

The thing is if we signed a 'clinical striker' who only came alive in the box then it would be a pointless signing anyway. We all know Neil expects more from a lone man and playing up front on their own they'd need to fulfill a very specific role. Stockley was the most 'clinical' striker in the country in 2018 but it's clearly not everything (albeit he's stepped up 2 divisions).
