Josh Walker has to go down as one of our worst loan signings ever. Looked like we'd chucked on a Sunday league player. Would have been better off going with Hawkins and Andrews both on together.

Yup hawk and andrews should have been the option and play the percentages - it is div 2!Josh Walker has to go down as one of our worst loan signings ever. Looked like we'd chucked on a Sunday league player. Would have been better off going with Hawkins and Andrews both on together.
....but still beat Creepy 2-0Doncaster down to 10 men
Walker is starting to remind me of Dean McDonald. He did get one vital goal during his time with us so maybe just maybe?Josh Walker has to go down as one of our worst loan signings ever.

There are no easy opponents in this division and let's not forget that, apart from the Mansfield game, Crewe were the only remaining opponent that were higher than us.
Oops I stand corrected.You're forgetting Barrow
Two winners actually. One against Huddersfield and one against Bristol City as I recall.Walker is starting to remind me of Dean McDonald. He did get one vital goal during his time with us so maybe just maybe?
Looks like BG is happy to stick with SC next season either way which is surprising when confirmed our failing to make the PO's.Very poor at home yet again, blaming the conditions which is a rubbish excuse.
Not sure SC actually has the skill to be a decent manager, last 3 homes games and been crp, nothing seems to change.
Huddersfield and Chesterfield is what I remember?Two winners actually. One against Huddersfield and one against Bristol City as I recall.
Maybe three, then:Huddersfield and Chesterfield is what I remember?
Hawkins had 2 players sandwiching him, trying to rip his shirt off, holding him & not a foul given. The referee was naive & bloody useless. The 4th official was bollicking our bench for complaining & threatened to send one of them off!Walker looks like he doesn't want to be here.
Hawkins not good enough today. Had a great game against Salford and has been much less effective since.
Andrews has bags of promise but he's the only forward we have that looks like a threat of any description.
It was more sleep repeat. Seen today's type performances so many time this season, a lack of creativity added to a lack of any real goal threat. Today was another day of prolonging the agony. If by some miracle we make the playoffs, its going to be a hard watch.
Think BG is going to have to spend and hope the recruitment is waaaaaaay better in attacking areas than it has been.
Going forward into next season i wouldn't be in any hurry to keep any of our attacking players. None of Williams, Lapslie or Mahoney have delivered anywhere near what we'd need to get out of this division and in the striking area I'd only be looking to keep Andrews of the current lot.
If we're going seriously challenge next season we're going to have to not only up our chances created by also taken.
Do I have faith we'll recruit what's needed? In a word, no, judging by what we've recruited so far in attacking areas. Hopefully SC will get to choose who he wants as what we've recruited so far, which has presumably been other people choices have been way off what we need.
IMO to turn us into challengers is going to require a big spend.
The big spend could well be paying players off as many players failing to deliver still have a year or more on their contracts apparently. We need players with effort, desire and leadership just as much as quality. For example, if i could swap any one of Mahoney, Lapslie or Jonny Williams for someone like Alex McDonald I'd do it in an instant.
