As No.9 Dream says, for years I have been saying things like 'If we had a defence we would be dangerous' and I used to get slagged off for saying it, it's only now that people are starting to agree with me.

And of course you are right on the mark Jeff...all I'm suggesting in my rather tongue-in-cheek posting regarding the addition of a Sports Psychologist to the coaching staff ( once agan!)...is that the team are not that far away from being one that can be moderately successful in the league...and with additional application....as in 'back-post marking and covering'...that they can achieve this success!.
But it seems these weaknessess need to be addressed by someone who
can not only spot them in the first place..but also make the correct moves to rectify them.
The whole team..and perhaps the Managers too!...might benefit from a bit of accurate Diagnosis and resultanr treatment !!
Then Jeff...We might be dangerous once again....the FES might become 'the Fortress'...and everyone would be satisfied!...BUT then we'd have nothing to write about!!
MORE 'RED-COLOURED SPECS.......AGAIN !!!...ON STANLEY...ON!!!!!
