Not unless Mills has changed his appearance somewhat.

I was a bit worried about playing a right back at left back but it sounds like Davies was superb there. It also says a lot about Dixon that a 36 year old has added an injection of pace to the position!

Davies just gets quietly on with his job. Played like a 25 year old though last night. Very good professional IMO.


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

Agreed. There was an incident second half where he mis judged the ball and it looked like the wide man was going to nick the ball from him and be away. He did the most professional foul/non foul i can remember in a while. It was such a blatant block, but done in such a way that it couldn't be deemed a foul and wasn't. We actually got a throw in from it.

Agree about the wingers I was just about to post the same, it goes to show what you can do with two wide players who can cause defences problems rather than having to rely on Dembele all the time.

I would also add that I thought Matt had his best game since Accrington.



The wingers were able to be more effective because of the excellent support from the full-backs. I think Mills had a great game and proved that he must be the regular right back. In the same way  Davies should be the regular left back and Dixon must be kept out of the starting line-up at all costs!

Oh what a night...

Late November and the Town scored three

They were everything I dreamed they'd be

We got the win... oh what a night!

Seriously hope Slade and Wilkinson get the message now...keeping it on the ground with a pass and move style has three enormous benefits:

1) It’s a far more likely way to carve open the opposition and score goals (kinda think that’s the whole point of this game isn’t it?!)
2) It’s patently clear the players love playing that way (and we’ve actually got the talent to do it)
3) You’re more likely to keep the fans onside Mr Slade as we have been dangerously close to breaking point with having been served up that pig-ugly long ball sh1te so far this season.

May this now PLEASE be the turning point!

Davies has done really well at left back. Better than I expected of him and seems to be better suited there to right back based on this albeit brief evidence.

did it look like the shackles had been freed in comparison to what had gone before? if so i wonder if RS knew he was under great pressure  and this was almost a last throw of the dice, acknowledging that his previous plan just wasn't working?
