Well you've got to say well done - people rightly wanted it and I was on the verge of calling for it too so they've got the timing spot on.

Interesting Bradbury was on the bench - is that for simply cover or because he's on the verge of the 1st team ?
Probably the former I'd say.

Why did we play a centre back ?
Good question - probably for the same reason we played all the other "trialists" I'd guess - because we didn't have enough fringe/2nd team players in those positions ?

With the youth team playing tonight I guess we couldn't dip into that team to make the numbers up.

Because we have 4 and non of them are entirely convincing. I quite like Pearson but he is still learning as is I'anson who has even less experience. Garner is decent but criminally slow and Kempson wanders all over the place misjudging headers and mistiming tackles.


Oh ok, fair enough. I thought Kempson and Pearson were starting to look a good pairing though?

Kempson is a decent centre-half at this level. I'm still not quite sure why some people seem to dislike him.

Anyway, he seems to be forming a reasonable enough partnership with Pearson though I suspect they may still struggle a bit against pacy strikers, if we were to encounter some. Let's hope that the defence can perform well again on Saturday. Three clean sheets on the bounce would be very nice!

If the budget is really tight, which position is being looked at and how could any new signing be funded?

Signing Green on an extended contract would be my priority as cover on the left side - good age, good attitude, wants to play for us, could be in the player profile that the twosome are looking to perfect to move forward this year, too good to miss out on, perhaps?

Ridley got 90 mins. Hmm,Green about to depart then?
Elding had the best chance and dragged it wide. Sure I've seen that somewhere before...

But why are we looking at centre backs?


Green to depart because a player who is coming back from injury got 90 mins in what is really a Reserve game? Dont really see your logic there.

I'd hazard a guess that we were looking for centre backs because I'anson isn't really very good and we could do with one more decent back up incase worst happens and we had 2 injured.
