442 with Greyson and Vernam on the left and right wings.


Thanks

What do people think to Grayson from what they have seen so far, would he be worth signing next season

Quoted from fiveallive
I don't know why the youth lads aren't playing from the start.


You say that like MJ has a record of giving the YTs game time. He doesn't.

Only 2 YTs have featured in league matches this season. Both Pollock & Burnell have had 1 substitute appearance each of 38 & 6 minutes respectively.

He hasn't even given A.Rose a start & age wise he's technically a 2nd year Pro.

Not to pick on grayson as its not really his fault but he does just look like a defender on the left wing, I don't think their defence is really too worried about him

Quoted from MarinerDevil
We seem incapable of relieving pressure on ourselves.  It's been a problem since we started that appalling run under Slade; whenever the opposition create successive chances we lack the intelligence and will to turn the tide.


I'm not excusing either the manager or the players, but think you're right in that we have just become accustomed to being the team on the back foot

The backs to the wall approach at the end of last season saw us escape by the skin of our teeth, but we've flattered to deceive this season

At least we've got the luxury of analysing things from a position of safety this Easter rather than us twitching nervously as we did this time last year

Got to have more belief in ourselves next season though, because the habit of letting the opposition have the lion's share of play is going to come back and bite us in the long run

Absolutely not. Plays about 6 positions and isn't particularly good in any of them. Somehow he's now viewed as a set piece specialist, but the only thing he specialises at is blasting free kicks into the first defender.

Yeah he doesn't look like a winger. He took an awful free kick earlier and had a full backs effort at goal.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

The future is looking bright......1-0.....to them


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Looks like Woolfords playing for them-he's given them 3 good chances

Fuckin old man Woolford again!!! He's been at the center of all our issues today! Under no real pressure and plays a ball across goal no where near Davis instead if just pumping the ball forward.
