Full time V Part Time

Without knowing where the money is being spent it is difficult to say where cuts should happen. The TUST will need to explain this at some point if they end up being the preferred bidder. However, given that there are apparently 72 people on the payroll (I think an increase of about 20 in the last 1...

TUFC 2019/20 Squad

Time to start look ahead to next season and what positions we have to fill. GK – McDonald RB – Wynter CB – Cameron CB – Niate CB – Sendles-White LB – Davis RM – Keating CM – Hall CM – Dickson RM – Kalala CF – Reid CF – Koszela Some may not agree but I am not convinced that Reid has the ability to pe...

Re: Wingers

I was as surprised as anyone when Stevens was handed another contract, especially two years. Danny is clearly talented but my problem with him is his positioning. More often than not he will sit right in front of nicho looking towards the opposition winger rather than moving beyond the winger giving...

Re: Taiwo Atieno

I agree Steve there is always a concern when a player has moved between so many clubs in such a short period of time. However, take Bayo for instance, he played for five clubs in two years before he joined us and lets be honest he was certainly affective. There are a number of reasons why players mo...

Re: Exciting Times Ahead...

Careful now, all this positivity will bring SG out in a rash. I got roundly shouted down for making similar suggestions and called a lap dog obeying blindly.

Re: Craig Stanley

A joy of not having a football man at the club I suppose. However much Colin Lee may have raped our club, he most certainly would not have sat on his hands and allowed Buckle to manipulate the situation in the way he has done. Perhaps we should try and encourage Bruce Rioch to take up a voluntary ad...

Re: Craig Stanley

SG I m not saying that you are wrong. I am just trying to figure out why you are being so negative. Nor am I saying that we are definitely going to be comfortable mid-table. Having supported TUFC for 20 years you learn not to make such sweeping claims. I am aware that we need to cut costs and that n...

Re: Craig Stanley

Oh surprise surprise, you venture out again. You can save that post of mine and use it any way you please over the next few weeks, let's see who is correct. You think we're in for a comfortable mid-table kind of season, I say you're deluded.[/quote] I simply suggested that the players under contract...

Re: Craig Stanley

That is an amazingly negative assessment SG. Everything that has happened so far with players going to join Buckle has been fully expected and not particularly devastating to next season. The loss of Bevan isn t a major blow and to be honest as soon as Buckle left I never expected the loan players (...

Re: John Milton

Can anyone explain what Veysey has done that shows he is such a good coach? I have never met the guy and have never seen him working but from the evidence on the pitch he doesn't seem to be particularly impressive. Beven has always had one very glaring weakness, his kicking. Yet this has never impro...

Re: New Grandstand

Yellow there are Council elections coming up in a couple of weeks, a nice chance to get rid of the current bunch of idiots and perhaps replace them with someone that might actually give a dam. The leader of the Lib Dem group is actually a big united fan. That and he can't be any worse than Bye, Carr...
