    We were far more positive and Football like with Peter Reid there. I was "USED" to sit 4 rows back from TP and Reid was a calming and positive influence - obvioulsy didnt suit TP!

    I like TPs statement about the importance of forwards. If only he would translate that into actually playing two forwards at home ( and don't say that is what we do, because no shots on target in the first half of the last 3 home games proves conclusively that we play one man up front - and he always has his back to goal!)

    We could play 5 upfront, but if we cant attack as a positive unit its point less! The only way to attack effectively is to either get behind the defence or a numerical advanatage - that would involve the CB's being at least at the half way line, full backs that over lap wingers and a CM's that dont faint with a lack of oxygen when the hit the centre circle!
