All the players should take a share of the blame for last night's poor performance as I'm sure they know theirselves - as for Symes being a replacement for Mullers, sorry but based on what I saw of him last season there's now way he could be.

Know what you are saying, Accy, but one part of the problem is that with Mully up front and the lads under pressure at the back they will always take the soft option and bang it up in the air in his direction, regardless of what Coley tells them beforehand. Not his fault, of course that he has this aura about him which demands the ball, but the unfortunate fact is that what he then does with the ball increasingly does not work against today's league 2 defenders.
