    GOD knows why T.P. is using BOTH Upson and Woodgate and or Huth as fullbacks? is suicide IMO. Our defence is all over the place.

    Rory having a mare by the sounds of it Potts. At least we're level for the time being.

    DELAP is too slow, too old and simply not good enough said it ages ago.
    What gripes me is... WHY doesn't Tony get Rory off and Pennant on or Whitehead?
    He is a liability IMO. We're not holding the ball in midfield, according to commentary anyway.
    Now we're in front put some quality in midfield and we should be OK.
    edit

    Agreed, Tony should use Jerome more often he's not let us down.<ok>

    Think Whelan should come on in the 2nd half just to get a foot on the ball and keep possession.

    Only when Whelan is on the pitch have we ever done that.

    Get Delap off and bring on Whelan I totally agree with that. Delap is a liability as is Woodgate. Fair play to Pulis though with the exception with the 2 named he has put a decent side out! Be interested to see if he gives Pennant and Fuller a run.

    Jerome has to start over Jones for me everytime now. I will be surprised if TP keeps Jones this window as he needs farming out!

    Not been on for awhile, glad we got the result and now that we have another favourable draw - happy days.

    In relation to the thread topic, I was very suprised at the team he played - 4 centre backs being the starting point and no rest for Shawx or Huth? Running Walters into the ground and not giving jerome a free run at his natural position was also a suprise! Surley aginst such lowley opposition we could ahve put out a far more balanced rteam and given some of our Key players a rest and some of the others a chance?
