    .....now that's one cocky canary......but rightly chirpy after yesterday! You know and we know that we didnt turn in our best performance, and the best team won on the day.

    So sad to hear your bad news gaffer, I hope everything goes well <ok>

    A lot of changes being called for and slating of some players.
    Tommy Smith isn't a bad defender all of a sudden, he's just gash on the right side, sends the ball out countless times with his right foot.
    Chambo is not bad, he's just gash at RB compared to centrally.
    Tabb is ok in the middle, not so great wide, I mean I could go on about so many people used in the wrong way. Bish, Bru, Parr........
    Mick's insistence on playing people out of position is making good players look bad. We've used the least amount of players but is that because we have a small squad or just because Mick only uses half of the players available to him?
    We buy wingers and then start with four CM's across the line.

    I'm not into dropping half the first team but definitely think there needs to be a reshuffle.
    I also hope Mick will take a risk on one of our wingers, even if they don't run around as much as all the others in training. Some players can bomb up and down all day but others who are into high energy, high impact plays like to conserve themselves ready for those quick bursts of speed or lung-busting runs to get onto a through ball. I wouldn't call that lazy.

    Exactly, the post match interviews when MM keeps defending his players and saying they have been terrific all season is getting a bit tiresome, we know they have been terrific all season, I tell you what MM if you play them all in their natural position they would probably play even better.
    I would argue that it is as much down to MM for some of the players having a dip in form as the players themselves, I am as left footed as Tommy and I used to hate playing on the right side of midfield or defence just always felt uncomfortable.
    Please start playing the boys in their natural position before our season crumbles before us!

    Thanks again everyone.....there's a lot of it about especially at my age, and most are crap at talking about it.
    In hospital today for yet more bleeding tests and I told the team of medics with kit up where the sun doesnt shine too often...
    "Hey, I should be charging tickets for this show!" It got them laughing.

    I am hoping to buy a ticket for the Brentford game if I can drive up.......we need 6 pts from next 2, but will be happy with the 4!
