Re: Man of the Match - Northampton (H)
It’s exactly that kind of moment that lifts the crowd and encourages the team to try things themselves and what we were sorely lacking until Kone came on.
From that initial lineup it didn’t seem like we’d shown Northampton enough respect and in the end the result showed that too.
Kone stretching them for 90 minutes would have thrown up a lot more chances and created spaces for our other attacking players. The formation and personnel we deployed allowed the Cobblers to keep their shape and reset every time we got the ball.

We’ve been on the slide since Rice started sacking Blooms’ hires, it’s possible that had some kind of effect on the players I guess.

He's Mr Wycombe as a player, not as a manager.
Just as Ainsworth became Mr Wycombe as a manager, not as a player.
MB is Mr Luton now and Ainsworth is Mr Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight
Re: Match Day Thread: Northampton
No, I just think he deserves respect for everything he gave for our club. Most of my posts are counters to people not respecting him. It will all die down eventually, but in the meantime I am perfectly getting downvoted by being "that poster who won't stop saying we should have respected Blooms more."
Ironically, for everyone who wants to take away the "Mr. Wycombe" title, there is a way in which you are right. He is "Mr. What-used-to-be-Wycombe" not "Mr. What-Wycombe-are-going-to-be-from-now-on" and I don't think everyone realizes how massive of a sea change that is.
Re: Match Day Thread: Northampton
Pure guesswork, but I'd imagine that the downvotes are for the "'don't give me all this they're not match fit bollocks" bit. The data says we should only sign players who aren't fit, so that's what we've done.
Re: Match Day Thread: Northampton
Felt odd that Hagelskjaer having made the bench the last 2 games, and come on late on last game was left out.
There might be match fitness issues with all of them. Even Berry, as he's barely played many full games this season. Seems to average about 40-45mins a game in the main.
Re: Loan watch
Luca scored an 80th minute headed equaliser in the 2-2 home draw against Tamworth.
Edit - he also had an assist for their first goal.
Re: Match Day Thread: Northampton
Yep, i'm not sure i've seen anyone really pro Rice.
The main arguments on here have been between those certain Bloomfield was pushed out and others not being as certain.
Lots of talk about "data" saying stuff must be right, but a lot of it very tongue in cheek.
