Out of interest, how did Elliot Whitehouse do? Was he playing further forward as a creator or is he more box to box?


To be fair on Saturday he seemed to be a target given his recent injury hell. He was certainly further forward along with Clifton whilst Hess linked defence and midfield.

Not wanting to pour cold water on Hanson's performance on Saturday but I can remember being at Winterton when we won 12-1 and new signing Jean Louis Akpa-Akpro scored 4 (including 1 screamer) and thinking what a player we had here.

Be interesting to see how he fares against Donny and Peterborough.

Pre-season means absolutely nothing. What Saturday has told me however is that he is a very big man and he can obviously head the ball and direct it towards the net. These things make me hopeful.

If I remember rightly Akpa-Akpro scored 4 goals in that game. A figure which he went on to match over a 46 game season.

He wasn't even really new by then since he signed in December of the year before. He didn't have a particularly brilliant record in France, he just had a cool name and resembled much better African footballers  but with none of their skills. I think everyone gave him the benefit of the doubt the season before in the hope that he just needed time to adjust and would get better with a full pre season.

I suppose we'll have to see how pre season pans out for Hanson. JLAA only had that one game in that pre season if I recall where he did anything useful.

Yeah, my mistake. Thought he was a new signing when he scored those 4 at Winterton.

Shows how much of a mark he made on me I suppose.
