    HA'WAY THE LADS

    MACKEMS ATTACKEM

    Was hoping for a bit more of a shakeup in the team last game tbh but I suppose I can't blame Taylor after being thrown in the deep end.
    We did have a lot of possession and didn't lose as a plus side.
    It's not good enough but under the circumstances probably better than a loss.


    Like the forward 3 on that one @RTB
    Here's hoping for a win.
    DOF looks promising from Birmingham so things look like they are progressing.
    Maybe a new manager in for the weekend, fingers crossed.
    I won't be disappointed with Cowley's,

    Get rid of the back 3. It worked for a while and now that we have been sussed it doesnt. 4 at the back. The players are comfortable with it. I defensive midfielder in front of them. 3 midfielders and 2 forwards. 4-1-3-2.
    FFS just go for it. And heres something a bit radical, when we score try for another f*cking goal or two instead of sitting back defending. It doesnt f*cking work.

    It might be a bit gung ho for one of Parky's boys, but don't worry he'll put another defender on just in case. Seriously though, what has Taylor got to lose by laying siege to the opponents goal. It's hardly gonna look good on his C.V. if he was in charge for 2 games and drew them both at home against 2 sides in the bottom three.

    Let the shackles off and try to increase the GD. Hopefully he saw how more threatening we looked when we went 4 at the back, and has learned from it. I'll go 2-0 to the Lads if he's got the bottle.

    Great thread again RTB. Really enjoy reading these.

    Yep, four at the back for me too. I know Luke is injured but when he's not him and Hume have enough stamina to last 90 mins playing as wingbacks in a back four.

    Playing three CBs is unnecessary at this level and it's made worse when we play as many defensive midfielders as possible. Can't wait to see us play a youthful team desperate to win matches.
