Re:
If you were an opposition centre-forward, and you walked out and saw that Creighton was marking you, there'd definitely be more of a fear factor. I know Worley's no midget, but Creighton's physical presence has to be a massive psychological boost when defending set pieces etc. In that respect, I th...

Re:
I voted Creighton, just in case he reads these boards and takes it personal!! :D There is a serious point there.

Wilder's young side - timescales for success?
I noted that Lord Wilder came over all David O'Leary in his post-match interview on Saturday, emphasising that this is a young side who are learning etc etc. Following on from that, I started to wonder what timescales (if any) have been mentioned between Wilder and Kelvin Thomas about when that team...

Interesting points on both sides, and I think the closeness of the voter indicates that there are strong cases to be made for each. I think there probably is some truth that Worley will eventually be the much better player - and clearly he needs to play games so he can progress. I suppose also that ...

Creighton or Worley?
I've nothing to add to the main analysis of yesterday's game - a bizarre game, where we played exceptionally well and didn't deserve to lose. We'll play worse than that this season and get three points. All the cliches. The only thing that really struck me yesterday was whether we might have benefit...

Disagree with both of those posts! If Wilder knows of him and thinks he's worth having for a month to cast a proper eye over, then surely that's a good thing, no? Presumably the reason for having him on an initial month is to make that sort of detailed assessment. As for Woodley, I think he'll get h...

Well, with the news that we've signed Philliskirk today for a month's loan from Chelsea, I think we've done the right thing. We've got an extra body to give everyone competition and maybe offer something a bit different - but it's for a short period, so Woodley can get his chance too. I expect Woodl...

Yellow Player - value for money?
A question for anyone who subscribes to Yellow Player... I'm an exile, and make about 10-15 games a season. Over the last few years, I've been able to listen to RadOx online, but obviously that's now come to an end. I never used to subscribe to Yellow Player because I couldn't afford it. I probably ...

Re:
I disagree that there is a need before the season starts. It would only show a vote in no confidence in Woodley, especially if the new signing was an unproven youngster on loan from a higher league club. A very good point, and not one which had occurred to me previously. Agree with everyone that Wi...

Extra striker or Woodley?
My first proper thread on RO! :D Looking at the squad, I'm still - like a lot of people - wondering whether we might be a bit light up front. Because strikers are creatures who experience highs and lows of form, I'm always of the opinion that you need more competition for places up front than elsewh...

Have to say, even as someone who wanted the 'new' TiU to work, this forum is by far and away better-designed and more intuitive.
