Plantar fasciitis Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) 15 minutes ago, andy25 said: Its not an unreasonable question.. Another shambolic pre season and mostly piss poor signings added too the fact he hasn't signed a couple of decent strikers as well as mostly poor displays and results for the last couple of seasons and people have the right too start asking the question . I'm not a Talbot supporter but admire and envy everything Tucker has done as a manager, he has won every trophy going , over and over. So I'm sorry but it is a totally unreasonable and ridiculous question to ask if he's out depth. The guy will go down in history as being one of the greatest, if not the greatest , managers at our level . The quote in my opinion is totally disrespectful.

Im no saying there isn’t but obviously no going to spend it , but on what I seen Today you have some good young players but they need help and quality around them and no just one or 2 either , Troon on Wednesday and then Clydebank a week today could put you in serious bother if u don’t pick up any points and then money will need to be spent and what you get then is players no Getting a start with their teams 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underdogunderdog underdog Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Would like to see Boyd start through the middle with Smith playing wide instead or play two of them together up front. Still need at least one other striker, maybe two to provide competition for places. Positive again today was Thomson who looks to be a great find. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they signed two medda players they wanted to keep, can't speak for signings from other teams but what I do think that wage demands may have proved an issue for Talbot this season given the silly money a number of teams are throwing about this season. Maybe thar has prevented Tucker getting some signings over the line 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plantar fasciitis Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I think Boyd is a smashing player but as a forward doesn't score enough goals for me. He definitely needs a poacher up beside him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdogunderdog underdog Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The biggest frustration is the constant long balls to Smith up top. Play the ball on the deck and we actually look like creating chances. Apart from goal today, we never threatened Andy. Been same in most games this season that we haven't made the keeper work much, if at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot supporter Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Don't want to sound like I'm clutching at straws as we didn't deserve to win but watching the highlights back do we think Smith could have had a penalty? and why is the ref not playing on for the red card incident looked like we could have had a chance at goal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As blatant an example of a player taking one for the team as you'll see and the ref allowed it to play out in Darvel's favour. Still a lot of work to score from there of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
