Not a criticism just a fact of life.
Tonight with a fully fit Baxter Bishop Conneely Pritchard (Sykes) dare I suggest the result would have been different ?
Our back up squad isnt good enough.
thats been a stanley problem for the last few seasons. too many players signed who are not up to the standard and only get games in an absolute emergency. a smaller squad with better fringe players would be a better option. in a dire emergency you could put youth players on the bench who would be no worse than the older ones in the squad. its interesting where these players end up that hardly get a kick for us. its non league football and most no where near its top division.
