After conceding two more goals from crosses from wide areas on Saturday, seems to me we have a problem defensively with coping with crosses. I couldn't find any stats to back that up, but could with corners - we're three times more likely to concede from a corner this season than we are to score from one. I thought this had been identified by the managers after the Braintree game but Saturday shows that isn't the case. Is it time for a change of centre back pairing now Garner is almost fit again?

I've gone into a bit more depth with stats etc here: http://toogoodtogodown.wordpre.....h-ends-of-the-pitch/

Marking might be a problem not sure, but don't think we're not doing enough to close down and stop some crosses coming in.
What's the point in jogging over to a player to stand off him and let him deliver the ball ?
They should be busting a gut to get tight like their lives depended on it !
