My point was not to doubt Bassette's potential at all. He's less likely to achieve that potential in a team that's losing because the midfield is struggling.

We shouldn't stick rigidly to the model. Bassette fits the model but it's not a position where we needed another player. We're not a finishing school for young players. We have to succeed in a competitive league

He's not coming to improve the team long term. If he's as good as Eccles it's all we need for a short term fix. It will also show the doubters that we need that extra man

But we do push the full backs on. They are playing like wing backs even though we only have two central defenders. That's part of the problem.

With the new signings he will not have much opportunity to "earn" his wages so then he'll have another "nothing" season. He needs to move on and take any chance he can get. He deserves that chance

Doesn't the Academy produce defenders anymore?

When I was young I thought 43 was old. Now my youngest is 43 I know what old really means

People said that about the Everton game, so we rocked up 20 min before KO, missed the first 15mins and found our seats occupied

Have they suspended print at home then? Is this a reaction to the turnstile delays at the Everton game?

That's normal. Ticket email usually comes a few days before game

The defence that kept a clean sheet against us

Yes

Torp is not a DM Our only DMs are Sheaf and Eccles. Howley looked to be getting closer but seems to have lost his way

I don't think it helps that we are playing two CBs but expecting the full backs to be wing backs. If you want full on wingbacks you need another CB or DM to cover

Oxford's second goal, their blond midfielder ran three quarters the length of the pitch and nobody tracked him

I agree with that. It's all very well playing out as a strategy but sometimes the defence just have to get rid.

I've always thought that a Park & Ride based at Ansty could serve Walsgrave Hospital during the day and Arena events as required
