Tyrone Shoelaces

They were good enough to spend the last 30 minutes in our half.

He was a bit more direct than Dolan.

He certainly wouldn’t be my first choice. Not a team player in my eyes.

The full backs are ok, no better than that. The second coming of Keith Newton they aren’t. Like you say they’ll have to earn their corn next Sunday. The problem with the Dingles is they have enough wingers that they can bring on two completely fresh ones if need be after 65-70 minutes.

Only when we’d made them inferior by winning. Yesterday we had “ inferior opponents “ but we made them look like a good team in the second half. I don’t get this slant were Big Sam got slated for racking the cue after being 3-0 up yet the current manager can park the bus against the bottom of the league at 1-0 up and it’s a tactical master stroke.

I don’t want to know. If a player ever told me anything in confidence that’s how it would stay.

Elusive runner but not a lot of end product.

Lots of teams higher up the food chain than us will be looking at Gyokeres.

When did we do that ?

Can’t see that. If we go 1-0 up it’ll be everybody back in our half.

And a lot better opposition.

He’s going to have to play next Sunday I think.

I think I agree with that but Whiteman, or most midfield players, would struggle in a central two also.

You can’t really set out your transfer strategy on those lines. Do we have to sign two more full backs just in case ?

I’ve only seen him once and that was on TV. I can’t say I was over impressed but Preston collectively had a bad day at the office.

He didn’t look 100% yesterday.

If Wharton was a couple years older he’d be my choice in a middle three. Unfortunately he’s not fully developed strength wise and this is a league were physical strength counts for a lot. Three or four grafters will always get the better of two footballers even if the two are better players. I accept JDT has to go with the players to hand but yesterday wasn’t the first time we’ve been made to look ordinary because we were light in midfield.

However a good one is worth their weight in gold.

Playing just Travis and Morton in central midfield was a mistake. Not the first time it’s happened this season. Hudds out numbered us there. We need three not two.

I’m pleased with the 36 points and 2 nd place. The football on display isn’t very pleasing.

I was talking to my son yesterday. He watches every game. Home and away. He said - “ It’s like this most of the time Dad, in fact sometimes we’ve been worse than this “.

I’d like us to be more dangerous.

Message for the pilot when they land - “ Leave the engines running “.

The two things go to gether. Unless you are entertained by seeing our defenders booting it back out to an opponent for half an hour.

Well, we’ll soon be seeing attendances shooting up again then ?
