If we use Beattie as an out and out target man, we have got to have a strike partner and and some of the midfielders running beyond him.
Otherwise, football19 is right, we may as well go 3 in the centre of midfield and try to pass our way up the field.

How can Beattie be used as a target man when he never wins a header outside the box??

 

[football19]

With more numbers in central areas we stand a better chance of passing it up field and therefore more chance of getting it to beatties feet

A target man is a predator in my book, n his main task is in the box.

Hi Cashy !!....Apart from 'Good to see you back'... A little thought !!..do you think that relieving Luke Joyce of the Captain's armband might just be the catalyst for more inspired and effective performances from a midfield player who is as good a footballer as any at The Store First Stadium ??.
In my opinion he doesn't really have the stature to fulfill the 'Skipper' role,,,but does have the skill and nous to win and distribute the ball to good effect !....perhaps in Luke's case the two just don't gel !...who can say ?.

Better he leads by skill than by example at this stage of the season would you think ??...

I have to agree. What about passing the armband back to the original captain, Dean Winnard? This does what you want by freeing Luke to do what he does best and be a skilful centre midfielder without the pressure of captaining the team. Thoughts anyone?

 

[cashman]

Its worth a try hes doing very little as captain n fer me Dino did nowt wrong in the job. but think joyce needs a rest first.

Get yourself booked on the coach

Not sure how this may affect the outcome but, according to FL stats, it's the 'dirtiest' against the 'cleanest' teams on Saturday. Let's hope the officials are up to it.

Why does the expression 'I shouldn't hold your breath' spring to mind Exile ??

 

[cashman]

Agree wi yonmon, the standard of officials is very poor imho, we had 2/3 good uns all season at the Crown.

 

[Revived Red]

Let's hope the officials are up to it.

Just checked on who is the referee. Stuart Attwell Need I say more?

 

[yonmon]

A Mean, Moody, and total Hatrack !!.

 

[Kiwi John]

Isn't really strange how all referees are knobs -world wide???

 

[accybeme]

anyone know if the international clearance required for Jeffers to play has been granted yet

 

[cashman]

Well it aint normally granted during the night.

 

[accybeme]

Well it aint normally granted during the night.

I guess thats a no then Cashy but with the dfferent time zone the tranfer document will be probably sent in the middle of the night

Think its up to a certain time today to be valid fer the game?

The plot thickens as Cashy responds thus...
"Think its up to a certain time today to be valid fer the game?".....

Now I wonder why would Cashy want to hide this vital data from Accybeme and the rest of us ??.... Don't you just love a good mystery !!.

( ps. For the more sensitive amongst us this query is purely rhetorical and must not be seen as a slur on Cashman's impeachable character !)

 

[cashman]

Hiding sod all, i aint sure just think thats the case.
