I can also think of one move in the pre season when Neil picked the ball up in CM and played an inch perfect through ball to Griggs feet who took one touch to control and another to put it in the back off the net.
There was more creative football from Neil in a split second than power has produced since the day he arrived.
Then although it was against Aston Villa U21s Scowen had more assists in one game than power has had in 2 years.
Yet he still plays nearly every minute of every game.
I have said this many times playing the wing back system we do is so easy for the better teams to defend against.
So thats when you need someone in the middle that is able to play that killer pass through the middle that splits through the defence.
No instead we get it in the middle and try to play a 50 yard diagonal ball out wide every time, we will never beat the better teams playing like this and if you don't beat the top teams you don't get promoted

people blame our strike force but they need better service. Our midfield is way too negative.

I’d get Neil into the team. These you guns play with no fear and blooding him in now without any potential negative atmosphere would be ideal...

question is does Parkinson have the balls?
 
blessed are the cheesemakers

tis a sign i tell thee..

been banging on about the lack of a midfield for years, a manager would look to address this, strikers will not get goals without good service...one good cut back on saturday = a goal, it is a pretty simple formula, neil + scowen have provided assists therefore any manager would look to them to provide, benji is scoring for fun in the U23's which to me suggests he should be getting chances in the 1st team, a decent manager would look to include him, onien has done all asked of him and more but with fit defenders available he should not be kept in defence, a good manager would play his men in thier best positions...i see a pattern developing here...
 
I'd agree, some people never seem to have a laugh, it's all so intense.

The Kittens character was believed to be him at one time, just relentless page long attacks, with graphics and 'quotes', claiming virtual theft. Then he went into a phase of totally defending Donald before going back on the attack.

The internet is a wonderful thing but you do encounter some strange characters.
Keyboard cowards as I refer to them mate

There were too many different people ITK saying some sort of ownership change was in the offing for nothing to be happening.

It is just a pity that the speed of action is glacial (before climate change).

Now that the player transfer window has closed, as long as Donald leaves before Jan, hopefully the new manager the new owners appoint can do something about the goal problem then we may get a good run at promotion.
