Agree with playing narrow - would just depend on the ability of the midfield to battle together and counter-attack well. Would imagine Joyce, Proc, Mingoia and maybe Buxton would be effective at that with Gornell leading the line but am stuck for another midfield player who can get stuck in.

*and the red was subsequently rescinded!
Think it was Shaker,but he looked like a duck out of water and wasnt tried there again.
I think Gornell will be key,but he will probably need 4/5 games to get upto speed.If he holds it up and brings others into play the team will benefit massively.
Its the three behind him that troubles me.
Naismith and Piero stay wide most of the time,but for me most of their best work/attempts on goal come when we get them into central areas,hence my comment on playing narrow.
Look at Northamptons "wingers",they were excellent,but not once did they stay wide and get to the byeline,just looked to tuck in and run off Richards and O Toole.
