    Lee Burge

    Two games, two clean sheets cannot ask for too much more than that - he keeps his place. I think he has improved a lot O'Brien made a couple of bad cock ups Burge has come in and taken his opportunity and I think personally he has improved markedly. Certainly not the finished article but...

    Booing of team... some thoughts

    Hmm I've never booed but was bloody close at Cambridge last year I tell thee. The most annoying thing is the lack of urgency, pace,fight that I struggle with. Against Newport we were so one paced and did not seem to step it up after going a goal behind. I think a bit of increase tempo to save...

    I think we cannot play or need to play two holding central midfielders in current formation who do not go forward.....simple as that. Think we should go 4-4-2 in a diamond with Andreau playing at the tip of the diamond. I would like McNulty to play wide just to take him out the firing line a...

    As for McNulty for me he is not an out and our striker - however Vincenti has disappointed out wide and is arguably not a wide man too? McNulty does have good pace though and think Jones and him on flanks could stretch opposition defenders and Beavon and Nazon for me would hold the ball up...

    Stokes one of my favourite players - last chance means he needs to up his game to stay in start xi no-one should be undroppable and he has not been very good this season though hope he will improve of course. Keeping him in the team but if he played badly again would bench him and give Camwell...

    Like to see McNulty wide on one wing - has good pace with Jones on other wing - Beavon and one other up top as a two.

    Well we have a massive squad for league two so we should be able to cope with this level of injuries far better than other teams in this division. Whatsmore think some of those listed above will be back fit for Saturday at Chesterfield. As for formation have been campaigning for a goddam 4-4-2...

    That may be true but we have them and we will be paying them they don't turn up out of love - if we have no intention of using them we let them go. Or people accept that having this large a squad means no more unless some are moved on.

    I am happy with a few players over the 25 players - however if I had to move on nine and get some money as questioned would go. Some of those listed are still on our books which means we are probably playing some of there wages RCC, Willis, Stevenson, Maycock, Turnbull, Reid, Devon Kelly Evans...

    We have a huge squad for league two in comparison to most teams fact! The same idiots who said we need a 50 man squad in league one.....are actually at it again for even though we are now in League 2! A squad of 25 is more than adequate and we have 33!! People need to be given time to settle...

    Thoughts on today

    Anyone any idea how long McDonald out for we clearly miss him badly when gone, also any idea on Haynes return to fitness? I think league two is his level and he could take over from Stokes who is one of my favourites but seems to be struggling. Currently we seem to have no attacking threat...

    When Pipe was starting (he was sub I think previously for them) and saw the hegiht mismatch and his general body shape thought Vincenti is going to have a field day here,,,,shows what I know!!! :rolleyes: There no 8 in midfield was very good a doyler for them but with more in his armoury going...
