Who would Pearson replace? It wasn't great yesterday ftom a centre back perspective but our centre back pairing is a miniscule issue.


Towler only because waterfall has value from set-piece. I know they have been great but all players should be aware if performance level slip someone will come in there should be no bad game it’s all about consistency. Otherwise players get to comfortable in their positions like McKewen.
Agree minuscule issue but one never the less.

Quite bizarre. Why would you replace a left footed centre back with a centre back who only uses his left foot for standing on?

I don’t think the CB’s are the issue, surely the FB’s in Revan (inexperienced) and Efete (just coming back) plus the CM’s having an off day, and Macca’s failure to command the box are are more pressing.

Quoted from Bigdog


Since Maidenhead away I'd beg to differ.. a bit hit and miss at best..

Maidenhead away, poor marking for equaliser
The defence included Pearson
Bromley away, defence collapsed when down to ten men
Dover home, troubled for 20 mins Oh come on
Altrincham away, conceded two and lucky not to concede more. The turning point was the sending off. Until that point the defense dealt with Rooney(?) very well
Woking away, very good but Woking had plenty of chances Woking in home team backed by a big crowd have chances shocker
Yeovil home, ok magnanimous of you
Wealdstone away, shocking really? My view is they could have still been playing now and they wouldn't have scored from anything other than a penalty
Notts County home, good but late goalscorer unmarkedDidn't the full back get the blame for that?
Kidderminster away, penalty conceded unnecesaarily
Aldershot, chaotic at times against poor forwards

Sometimes lesser problems slip under the radar while looking at bigger problems elsewhere..


My point was and remains that of all the problems we appear to be having at the moment the performances of Towler and Waterfall are the very least of Hursts worries.


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

Yeah let’s replace the best central defender we’ve seen since Ryan Bennett.


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 rate him highly one of the best players in the team by a long way, but by all accounts speaking to people who were there yesterday he was excrement.

So, having rated him highly, you would drop him on the say-so of others for someone who plays right centre back? If you drop Towler, you play Longe King.

A partnership of Pearson and Waterfall would be rather lumbering.
