Who's playing right side for you ?

Not saying either wouldn't be effective there (I don't know) but IIRC, both have rarely (if at all) played that side this season.
It begs the question what do you mean by "natural" ?


Disagree, think he's beaten a fair few as he's "Mr acceleration".

Put it this way...
I've yet to see Arnold OR Neilson "beat a full back" ONCE this season.
If anyone can remember an instance where they have, please say, I'm all ears !

Mackreth "offers something different" (thank god IMO) and as I keep saying works his butt off for the team.
So did Colbeck perhaps.
But for me, there's no comparison between Colbeck and Mackreth when it comes to vision and passing ability.

In general, wingers are always easy targets for criticism anyway.
Because when they're "out the game" few tend to question the service they get.

However I agree with barra that a goal or two wouldn't go amiss...


Disagree with you on this 80s, Neilson is our best player at taking on his man. Did so about two or three times against Oxford when he game on.

His goal against Gateshead (away where he beats three men and blasts the shot into the back of the net from about 30 yards shows the step up in quality from Mackreth who for me, doesn't cut it at this level.

Someone above posted about Neilson always cutting inside, could the answer be as simple as switching wings?

Makreth was out paced and easily knocked off the ball on Saturday... Scott Neilson made a helluva
difference when he came on... the other players around him seemed to go up a gear when he came on..

not rocket science... I would def have SN in the team tonight...

Scott is the type of player who can not turn it on every game,

Every so often he needs a rest and a kick up the bum,

Then he comes back and plays at his best,

Tonight I believe he will be back,

Just watch him go !!!!!!

Go get at them Scotty.

Has any Town player EVER had his name misspelt as often as Makreth MacrethMaccreth.Mackreth

I had five edits at it last night....


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Quoted from Maringer


I actually looked at the player stats bit on the OS and that seemed to think he'd only had 5 shots so far this season! A remarkably low number of efforts for an attacking player. I've only been to home games this season but can only recall a couple of sliced efforts (when he should have done better),so don't really know of any one-on-ones missed.

Not sure what his career scoring record is like as Soccerbase appears to be down at the moment, but I'd be surprised if he scores too many.


Wrexham & Halifax away games. The Halifax one was an especially glaring miss since he had the whole goal to aim at and tamely shot straight at the keeper.

I'd play Nelson in a five man midfield, sat behind LJL, 4-4-1-1.

TBF in this league Neilson is a class above any of the other team members but lacks consistency, every team can accommodate a player of his type that will get you a win when the chips are down,  and IMO he should start most matches
