Smith needs to get the best finisher at the club onto the pitch, mind you, he'd probably play hm at left back.

Bollo cks!

Unlucky? Or a wilful refusal by the management to see what the problem is. If you can't score on a regular basis then you don't win enough games, whether the defence is playing well or not. It also means that you lose against really crap sides.

A real test of Dean Smith's management skills in the second half.

Lets hope you are right, but you are aware for that to happen we need to score a minimum of 2 goals in 45 mins, we have only scored 21 (goals all season so far) :lol: :lol:

According to Philthesaddler on another thread, we have only scored 21 goals since 1997 :?

I hope so mate, but an average of 0.7895 goals per game means I'm not getting too hopeful.

and how do we know that they have 'lucked out'? There is only 2 statistics that count for anything in a football match ...

Stupid me thinking that this could at last be the year.
My Dad is 80 and never seen us play at Wembley. I think this will be the same case for me.

Bottom of league 2 opposition. Pathetic.

Smith you complete and utter t*t.

Turn this around now or go!

Very very angry...

Here's a question, how many times have we scored 2 goals or more in a match in 2014?


At a quick glance 8 times in 49 games. That's less than a 1 in 5 chance of us reaching the holy grail of 2 goals.

Even WM complaining about:-

Smith not changing enough at half time.

Crosses being put into the oppo box and nobody being there to challenge for them.

Everyone can see the problems, except .....

I really hope you're joking.

Cook off at half time. Very disappointed with him to be honest, guess there may be a reason he's barley played any football since his loan with us three years ago.

Sounds from the Radio that Tranmere are the more likely to score than Walsall. They have stepped the pace up not Walsall.

I am not one to throw toys out pram. But I am sick of this. Biggest chance for us to go to wembley. Sorry Deano you lost my support. If he can't motivate a team to beat a team in low league two then fudge off. Congratulations Tranmere. Your philosophy about football is admirable. Pity you can't make it happen. Do the decent thing and leave

6 League goals in his entire career tells its own story. Plus he's not really quick anymore either.

Bet his wages are not cheap either, great use of the budget. He's been cack so far this season.
