Re: Spennymoor signing

If it's Thompson we best have been offered some astronomical fee It had better not be Thommo or there will be hell on.This would be the final straw for me without a doubt but let’s not pre judge.Surely the club would never consider selling him especially to that lot up the road.Would be amazed if t...

Re: Hartlepool match confirmed at BM

Having watched the highlights, the ball from Burn to Ainge wasn't ideal but it was an easy clearance for Ainge. Think it's a bit harsh to pin it on Burn. Tend to agree, Ainge had sufficient time to make a clean clearance but I do like him and I would stick with him at CB permanently as he is a good...

Re: Hartlepool match confirmed at BM

Our squad is far too thin and Tommy without a doubt needs another striker urgently.Another midfielder with some physical presence and a keeper to put some pressure on Maddison are no brainers, and obviously these need to be loan signings.Ridiculous scoreline tonight, but missed chances and defensive...

You could really feel the sense of amazement and shock among the York fans at how facile a victory that was from their position of turmoil. I don't think they could quite believe it.

Re: TW,s tactical nous!

Sorry Tommo was very anonymous when he came on and certainly didn't shown anything that will force him back into the starting 11. A bit concerned if TW starts messing Thommo around and keeps him on the bench and using him sparingly like he has done lately.Far too good a player, but under the way TW...

Re: Sat 29th Dec - Ashton United (Home)

I'd be tempted to change a couple of things for York, maybe bring in Wheatley and Kokolo. I'd also like to see how Nelson and Ainge pair up, if a) we keep Nelson longer and b) if Ainge is ever fully fit. Agreed, Wheatley for Elliott and Kokolo for either Nicholson or O’Hanlon would do for me but To...

No problem with Thompson but would have played him in the centre alongside the other 2 like in a recent away game. Bit of a stretch to say he set Nelson up though.....

Re: Chorley vs Darlington - Rearranged

What’s the betting Tommy will replace Harvey with Nelson and put the new lad from Leeds on the bench as I don’t see him dropping Elliott and O’Hanlon as he appears very loyal to these two.

It is very welcome to see some new faces to hopefully freshen things up when the team is in a slump, but it does say something about TW's philosophy that all three loan signings to date are attackers.
