I just hope PH See's this and starts Pittman with the Shop upfront. I don't think Palmer had a bad game, i'm just thinking tactically to get a goal or 2 to 'seal it' we need some pace up there.

Bar his woeful miss in the 7th minute I thought Palmer was a bystander for most of the game. Vast majority of link up play and high balls won was by JLL who I thought had a very good game. MOTM pearson by a country mile though. Great turn out by Town fans aslo, very well done to all who made the long journey so glory hunters like me can look at getting travel arrangements for Wembley sorted by Sunday night. UTFM!
Thought the same about Palmer.Was disappointed with him to be honest as in the Barnet game at our ground done really well and was expecting more from him.The other thing is how someones energy and commitment can make a difference .Eg the other lad for Eastleigh when he came on eg small stocky black lad who scored their goal made a difference for them I thought.

Not sure there is a need to change it. I agree that Palmer didn't offer much and should've taken his chance but the team selection and then the substitutions worked.

Im not sure their back four would cope with anything we throw at them. They've conceded a lot of goals and their tactic seems to be to kick us, foul us or just kick it really far and hope for the best at times.

I agree that Toto's distribution isn't/wasn't great but I think he's learned to get rid unlike early doors when he'd try and be a bit too clever. I certainly wouldn't be taking Gowling out the back four and although Brown has disappointed me of late he did play well Thursday night.

I was thinking maybe start Chappell instead of Mackreth on Sunday, Mackreth didn't get in to the game the other night where Chappell is looking for a new club next season so out to impress. I doubt he will drop Palmer because of his goals he scored against them in the league was close to scoring a third against them.

I'd swap Pittman for Palmer and keep the rest of the side the same. I would look at introducing Chappell if either of the wingers aren't on their game. We've got to take it to them from the off. Get it out wide quickly and get running at them. If we get the first goal tomorrow, we'll win.

Quoted from oldun
I was pleased PH did not go the Parsley option. I think he would have been bullied too easily. Not many manage to bully Toto, although I agree he could have pAssed the ball better.



I don't think RB is a position that Toto has played in much. If it seems on the field ( and to PH ) that his distribution isn't as good as it should be then it is up to our mid-field to help him out by offering him the easy , short pass options.
