Personally I'm not convinced, I think we need a new first choice  left back and then Hope/Hewitt/Hendrie can deputise as and when needed.


I'm not convinced either - but he is better than nothing!!

Agreed, think Preston’s a little bit off being league 2 quality, although I don’t doubt he will be in the future.

For me Edwards isn’t good enough. Can take on people for fun, but can’t pass, shoot or cross (although he did score one cracker). And Morton, well, clearly FGR got a different player to us because their fans seemed to rate him.

Me neither, he looks quite good at times, especially going forward, but we've conceded loads of goals from that side of the pitch. Need an experienced left back to come in and keep Preston as cover for injuries.

Preston seems good at times but my gut feeling is that we have conceded more goals down our left side than elsewhere- anyone know the stats?  He seems to lack positioning and isn’t a touch on Hendrie.  He is all we have for now though which, in itself, is crazy

Liked Edwards, made every effort to make things happen. Lots of good things about him.

Morton was excrement.

Hurst says he has watched our last 4 games, Our left flank has been shite in all those four games, poor full back and terribly cover given by whoever resides on the left in midfield. Bennett and Preston will not be part of Hurst's vision.

Guessing Morton has a move lined up to Tiverton Town.

We probably need to keep Danny Preston.


As cover or fighting for a start with a new LB I'd suggest.

I think some people are being a little unfair on Preston, generally he has been one of our better performers (though agree that doesn’t say much on occasion), and often he gets doubled up on due to the left side of midfield being so weak at tracking back or tackling which then leaves him exposed
