Small was NJ's recommendation.
You are in a very small minority when it comes down to Andy Scott. He has previous at Forest, got them in some right shit with his signings. I could go on but I'll cut it short and just say he is a waste of a wage. Doesn't have the ability to fit his job title.
You talk of the above handful of players as if they were major coup's!! Coventry is not good enough and the jury is still out on the rest. Doubt any of them would get into a top 6 side to be honest.

Interesting reading a weekends full of doom and gloom on SM due to a poor performance on Saturday…….Weeks before we created chances and beat a Turkish Premier league side quite comfortably, last week we were competing extremely well against a Premier league side with an abundance of first team players and should have beat them….plenty of optimism then but we get beat on Saturday and it sounds to some like the wheels have come off completely…….Its like most Saturdays we win and we are the best thing since sliced bread and lose and we are the worst side ever…..there doesn’t seem to be much grey area with our fans views…
I think we all know we need that keeper, new CB and creative midfielder with goals in but I am not writing this team off due to a non cohesive performance on Saturday
Jones will have learnt quite a bit from the game and I think we will actually benefit from the experience of this loss….
I posted on Saturday that with the current squad we were a 10th place team……I am though still confident that by 31st August we will have a squad capable of getting up to 6th in one of the toughest league one in ages……We will lose some more deadwood by then and bring in some quality probably in loans….
Keep the faith guys…….

We all laughed at Forrest signing 1000 players in the prem and people forget that was the Andy Scott master plan. He’s brought in lots of deadwood, I’d argue his position is the last one we need a real top pro in now. Dr Will Abbot seems a class act and will benefit our clubs more than we will tangibly see. Apologies for any typos - currently sat on the balcony in Spain drinking white wine and dreaming of a successful Charlton season |

Mate…Balance is the key word here…….We do as a fan base tend to go to both extremes when we win and when we lose……If the performance on Saturday was ten games in and we had had a poor start to the season then fair enough but surely we need to let this new side bed in and give them a proper chance …..before they get written off as duds…. |

Last summer, we had a fairly strong run in our friendly matches. We beat Welling, Dartford, Wealdstone, and Gillingham. We drew against Millwall and Orient, and our only loss was to Aberdeen. We were going down before Jones arrived that much I think we can all agree on, so I agree it’s best to wait 10 games before we all reach for the Jim Jones kool aid.

We had a prefect number 4 for this league and proven but choose not to give a contract to keep him I must’ve been watching another Dobson then. Perfect? Really? To be fair he said prefect, which is probably more accurate. |

No doom and gloom from me but I have feared more and more as the weeks have gone by that we won't be strong enough come the end of August.
We reverted to route one football yesterday because nothing was happening anywhere else on the pitch which I'm fine with just as long as you have somebody to aim for and apart from Chuks who we all hope will last longer than he normally does without injury and Ahadme who appears to be carrying one there is nobody else up there to get their head on it.
Matt Smith would solve that problem that's for sure. Im amazed nobody has picked him up yet after his goals for Salford.
We lack four players from top to bottom and straight through the heart of the side starting with a keeper, a CB, CAM and a striker.
I think Berry and Docherty are going top disappoint no matter if we beat Dartford 6-1, Goztepe 3-1, drew with Palace and lost at Wimbledon.

No doom and gloom, yet writing two players off after a couple of pre season games! As per above. Nothing to do with the two games they have played. Good signings when you compare the usual dross Scott is like a magnet to but when push comes to shove I'm not sure that either player will offer what's been missing for too long in that area of the pitch. Anderson doesn't score many, Coventry even less so you would think that somewhere along the line we would bring in what most other clubs have and that is goals from midfield. It's something we haven't had for years. |

You said they where very good signing. We could bring in a goal scoring midfielder and we could still have the same problems we saw yesterday. Thankful that is something that can be solved before the Portsmouth game. |

Again I am not referring to what is happening in games. They are better than the signings we are used to but I was hoping either Berry or Docherty would mean Coventry isn't guaranteed a place in the side with another new face coming in alongside them in a more attacking role.
NJ looks like starting with all three which is a concern because I think it's to say that from their individual stats that they are not going to contribute many goals which is what you need from your midfielders. My point is they are not good enough to justify not bringing in an attacking central midfielder who gets us up the pitch and scores goals. We need a Kinsella type player but at the moment we have got ourselves three Graham Stuart type players without the quality.

So we should all think the same as you should we? Won't get me very far that will it? Again I am not referring to what is happening in games. When they came in they were better than the signings we are used to but I was hoping either or would take Coventry's role while complimenting somebody to play alongside them in a more attacking role.

We need a Kinsella type player but at the moment we have got ourselves three Graham Stuart type players without the quality. So now it has changed to a midfielder that can carry the ball forward but just a minute ago it was midfielder that scores goal. Basically it just sounds like you are hitting in hope every time you name a profile type of midfielder. Coventry's is a number 6 and that has two in front of him with Luke Berry been the more advanced of the two he's job is to link up with the two cent forwards. Berry kept find pockets of space but Coventry's did not turn out and slowed the game down to many time. While the midfielder as a whole lost to many battles. There other issues we have is in our build up play and not get the wing backs up the pitch because that where most of our creativity is going to come from and the channel running striker is not do enough on the ball and he's hold up play was very poor. We thankful have week to solve them issues and other players in the squad can step in if other don't improve. Jones has the tools but its on him to make it work and he would learned a lot from that game. |

I understand where you're coming from Reams.
I do think Berry (two goals in 310 mins in last season's PL, stats are stats) will come good for goals.
I also think Anderson, Campbell and Dixon as potential raw options at number 10 (all crazy young and with an eye for goal) is something most L1 teams would dream of.
I agree that a proper Kinsella-esque ball-carrier is perhaps lacking. I had hoped Bishop might be that. Hopefully the "we need someone to move on first" line is more a wage bargaining position and/or a clue we might have our eye on someone potentially better?

Isn't a CAM who can drive forward with the ball to feet also that player who can let fly from 20-25 yards once he gets into the final third? He has to have options once he gets there and if he see's that there is nothing else then he would have created an opportunity for himself which is what Mark Kinsella used to do. You know very well what I meant so I prefer it if you didn't spend all night trying to cross examine me where football is concerned. As for the hitting in hope comment, you have totally lost me on that one. I have been saying we should be looking at Davis Keillor-Dunn for the last six months and he played for Mansfield at the time so would you consider him high profile? Same with Jon McAtee. I mentioned Kasey Palmer earlier but as a guess to why Scott was at a game he was playing in recently, nothing more apart from his club are willing to let him go and given we have just signed Godden from them there's obviously a good connection there so it's not as ridiculous as some people have you think. I have read many comments about the game yesterday, not just on here and the general consensus is we lack a commanding CB who is captain material, we are also missing an attacking central midfielder and we are short of a striker to because of the vulnerabilty of three of the one's we have due to their fitness. Bergovic will join by the middle of the week. |

The other two won't be coming that deep for the ball they like to play higher up the pitch. |

I mentioned Kasey Palmer earlier but as a guess to why Scott was at a game he was playing in recently, nothing more apart from his club are willing to let him go and given we have just signed Godden from them there's obviously a good connection there so it's not as ridiculous as some people have you think. I have read many comments about the game yesterday, not just on here and the general consensus is we lack a commanding CB who is captain material, we are also missing an attacking central midfielder and we are short of a striker to because of the vulnerabilty of three of the one's we have due to their fitness. Previewjavascrip BBCodejavascript:void(0); t:void(0); Bergovic will join by the middle of the week. Davis Keillor-Dunn, McAtee, and Kasey Palmer are all different profiles. Kasey Palmer is the only one that would of solved are problem yesterday in build up because he can drop in between the number 6 and 8 position when we are in possession. The other two won't be coming that deep for the ball they like to play higher up the pitch. Hallelujah!! You've got it! Players coming in who can player higher up the pitch is exactly what I have been trying to explain to you. The idea of a CAM coing deep for the ball is crackers. His role within the side is to receive the ball on the half way line and carry it as far up the pitch as he can as quick as he fan, running at defenders and putting them on the back foot. You don't need your goalie passing or throwing it to your CB who in turn nudges it another 10 yards to the defensive midfielder for the attacking midfielder to drop deep to get the ball off him. All that does is allow the opposition to get back and regroup that leaves you facing two banks of four to get through before you make it into the penalty area. A CAM is the outlet for your strikers by getting up into the final third for the to feed off or, you want them to make runs into the cahannels takling defenders away so it opens up for you to get an effort in on goal yourself. His job isn't to come deep to get the ball so he can do that. |

Thanks for that but that's not how Jones wants to play but if you get the chance go back and watch the game it might help and you might learn something. But keep hit and hoping you will get it right one day. |
