I'm another who thinks Wood is clearly our best striker.

Put simply, if all four were to play the same minutes/start the same number of games over a season, I'd be very confident that Wood would be the main goalscorer. Don't think it would be particularly close either

That's fine. You're entitled to your opinion. That's what these boards are all about.

C'mon Vyds, c'mon Barny.

The others can't score if they don't play. Ten or twenty minute cameos don't give them time to get warm. Got to say, JayRod has been disappointing recently, so he has been dropped. Funny how no matter how bad Wood is, he's NEVER dropped.

It's not funny at all, he's our best striker.

Connolly starting so Brighton giving it a go

Absolutely.

Hopefully both Barnes and Vydra have great games today to give SD a headache when Wood comes back

I can’t understand why the chap on the Public Address is still being employed without any fans in the ground!

I’ve wondered the same, when fans were in the ground!

No more excuses for Vydra, he’s having a run and playing a team at the bottom, let’s see what he can do.

A team with four concecutive clean sheets, including Spurs and Liverpool. If only it was as simple as you seem to think.

What? Why would he get less of a chance than anyone else?

Stupid offside rule

Barry_Chuckle · Post by **Barry_Chuckle** » Sat Feb 06, 2021 3:09 pm

No advancing midfield to support the attacks, that is why we score so few and the midfield players don't score.

jojomk1 · Post by **jojomk1** » Sat Feb 06, 2021 3:10 pm

can we try balls on the floor just once

Claretmisterg · Post by **Claretmisterg** » Sat Feb 06, 2021 3:10 pm

Could understand if it was no flag if level then let VAR judge but Vyds was obviously miles off there so absolutely farcical not to flag.

He's not a 'Hold up' player. No use lumping it up to him. That's Barny's job.

Decent enough first 15, and we've even had a shot on target.

Happy day. I’ve seen a Clarets FB carry the ball infield and have a dig. Might have been awful but keep it going.

Any chance of a cross that`s not straight to the keeper

It’s either he never gets a run, he only gets 10 mins, he only plays against the top teams. Brighton will be attacking us, there will be plenty of space and the law of averages is against them having another clean sheet.

Guddy gets the ball in front of his man, and then stops and goes backwards. Can’t understand why he did that for the life of me.
