In my mind as well, and I’m not Hedges biggest fan.

You forgot Dennis. Entirely understandable though.

We didn’t even get a free kick if my memory serves me well.

I think anybody who isn’t going to be 100% committed out on the pitch needs to go. However I think Travis is the sort of player that once he steps over the white line all other issues go out of his head and he just wants to win. It’s a personal thing that’s born in you. Not everybody has it, but I think he has.

Another wasted season then.

Our plan changes every week.

We could be stronger if we sign a right winger who can make things happen. My reservations are - I haven’t seen many good 6’2” fullbacks and not many centre halves make good full backs. Of course I’ll reserve judgement until I’ve seen him play in the flesh.

I used to think “ thank god he’s only on loan. “ quite a lot.

Beat me to it.

As was Brearley and the midfield player from Forest who’s name I forget.

He wouldn’t have been in their half.

Bravery comes in different forms out on the pitch. You wouldn’t see Berkovic flying in to a tackle but he’d always show for the ball no matter how closely he was being marked.

Perez was ok but didn’t stay long.

No way would I be signing Walker to play right back in a back four today. On the right side of three centre backs in a back five, possibly. When your pace goes it can go awfully quickly.

Hedges and De Neve - deary me. If you rolled them both together you wouldn’t have even a Craig Conway or a Noel Brotherston.

If we had anything like the squad we should have both Montgomery and Tijon would be going out on loan to the next tier or two down. As it is they’ll probably be on a very weak bench.

That’s big for a full back. Big guys don’t turn well. I’ll wait until I’ve seen him play but not many centre halves made good full backs.

Watching him playing against Kargbo will be interesting. Kargbo will be faster running backwards.

It was like losing two players in one. He’d have been perfect for the modern game.

That really is the issue. Get a very solid back four and two wingers who can make things happen and we’ll be no worse off. The secret is in getting those players in.

I remember that cup tie at Leicester JRC had that Harvey Barnes in his back pocket and we were cruising. JRC comes off, Brittain comes on in his place and Barnes ran him ragged. Leicester were shovelled the ball out to his wing. Another 5-10 mins and that game would have gone. A good attacking player who could usually put in a good ball, but for that he wouldn’t have been seen as good enough to get in the team as a pure defender. Keith Newton he wasn’t. Or Henning Berg or Kevin Hird etc etc.
