If the stories are true that Hanson and Green are the big earners I would add Ohman  to that list as he did not come from Sweden to play for peanuts.

If we can pay them off at a reduced rate it would still leave a bit of money to find their replacements.

Quoted from Swansea_Mariner
Ohman a bit hit and miss, gives away far too many fouls but was always willing to put his head where it hurts. Bet he's probably got something else liked up.

Moshini well never played, IH says he can't get fit so effectively useless.


He has hardly played this season yet we continually give away free kicks.

If Pollock or Waterfall broke a leg on Tuesday it could be a long old December.

We had three very similar centre halves who are all great in the air, strong in the tackle, slow as fook, give fouls away far too often and can't pass the ball to save their lives. We had to get rid of at least one of them (not Pollock)..

Pollock and Waterfall can pass it decently. Agree about being slow and strong in the tackle. Think Öhman going leaves us light in that department. Good, quick central defenders who can pick out a pass don’t grow on trees.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I've felt for several months that holloway has recognised a player in idehen and he is being lined up as pollocks replacement

The playing out from the back is evidently not working but to be fair to the defenders, it's difficult to pay out form the back if your midfield is useless. We need a real play maker and we need an inspirational midfielder or Groves  / Dis stature.

We also need more physicality to compete for second balls and pressing opposing defences. Too many of our players were  bouncing off Tranmere's and Hull's more experienced and athletic squad. Spokes tries hard but lacks touch and experience. At L2 level, smaller players have to be very skilful, quick or be able to judge when to challenge or simply cover the space by tracking back.
Edwards has some of these qualities and Wright is learning. Tilley, Windsor and Gibson will improve in these ball winning skills but have to learn quickly. I would keep Bennet for his experience but give up on Scannell.

Whoever Olly keeps, the emphasis has to be on the basics rather than grandiose schemes of 'building an identity'
