    I started to think that tbh.

    BUT

    It’s starting to look like he has so many attacking options from both the left and from the right, it’s not true, however the focal point of the man up front is our weaker position.
    Is Angol that man?
    It’s a conundrum all right.

    He is still somewhat of a gamble though hopefully he will do well

    Did he play with that focal front man last year. If so I'd be a tad worried, if not, less so.

    Sorry to be a party pooper but are folk really creaming themselves over Angol grabbing two against Guiseley in a friendly???

    Appreciate Adams is singing his praises - thats called man management.

    Perhaps we need to learn to pass the ball into him then instead of taking the easy option and lumping it.

    Where did I say we couldn't pass it long?

    There's a huge difference between long passing and hoofing it.

    It's pretty much in a housing estate on the back road that runs behind the Dusty Miller, all street parking unless Brighouse have a car park. It's a good two miles out of Brighouse Town centre, probably actually nearer to Hipperholme.

    It's quite close to Crows Nest Golf Club.

    Nearest pub is the Old Pond, but you could always park at the Halifax Steam Brewery, have a pint there and walk down (about a mile). If you do try the Uncle John.

    No one is creaming themselves. But Adams doesn't strike me as someone who chucks compliments around lightly. He saw Angol 'terrorise' Morecombe last year, in League 2, so it's clear that he he has the ability at our level, not just against non-leaguers.

    Exactly. A good confidence builder for someone who had a serious injury not long back, hasn't played much recently and has just joined a new club. Or thats my view anyway!

    You are a brilliant guide Uyllses. When I was a young sprog if anyone stopped to ask my Dad for directions he would use pubs for landmarks when directing them on their journey. He passed away in 1987 but would be useless now all the pubs are closing down.
