    And why is O Donnell captain? Having a keeper as captain very rarely works

    Newport play with pace, tempo and purpose.

    So we're screwed.

    Game over after 43 seconds.

    13 mins in and you can already see that no one knows where they're supposed to be playing, especially out of possession. The midfield is so exposed.

    We're short of quality to begin with but this constant changing of systems is on McCall. Its poor management, its unnecessary, and it makes an already hard task harder.

    He brought Guthrie and about 50% of the players playing today.

    It's like they've got 2 extra players when it's in midfield!

    For all this tinkering he does, why does he never do it during the game. The midfield is just being over run

    No he didn't sign Guthrie. Bowyer did the week before he was sacked.

    Yep. And at L2 that's what gets success. Not chopping and changing each game.

    They have. They play 3-5-2 so they will have. That's why 4-3-3 with Clarke and 3 forwards in the team won't work against a packed midfield. Watt and Cooke have no hope of getting forward as they're running all over trying to cover for four forward focused players.

    Looks like we are playing the crushed diamond formation-bits and pieces everywhere.

    Injuries are already exposing the strength of the squad.

    This bunch of ‘players’ are extremely lucky that fans can’t attend. They’d be crucified week in week out

    Don't be foolish mate...He didn't. McCall did hence why Guthrie starts and we didn't sell.

    Rhodes knew Bowyer was going. Rhodes isn't a idiot. He isn't going to trust a manager with transfers knowing he's getting sacked the next day.

    Guthrie appears to have the aggression of a kitten in the box.
