Re: January transfer window.

IMHO Mark Hughes is a towering influence in our Stanley Squad.
His experience always shows through and he really plays the role of a 'Captain' in the team. His passing is usually very sound..... it is sometimes simply sublime
but against The Posh he had a relatively poor game with some of his passes below his usual standard.....In particular the attempted header back to Ripley which gifted Posh a simple goal.
However, the referee did not pick up the utterly foul behaviour by Posh's big centre half who Hughes was trying to mark at set pieces! Their lad was holding Hughes off at a distance by using a straight arm locked at the elbow with his hand wrapped around Hughes' throat! I really felt for Mark and I could see him getting totally frustrated with the lack of input from the referee!
