    Another very good performance from him yesterday. Fast becoming one of my favourite players. His experience has been invaluable, and he belies his rather unfit looking stature with his energy, and his positional sense is superb.

    Stop calling it the Wright video.

    O'Connor was to blame for that goal.

    We need 3 defenders urgently! Midfield we're fine.

    Not great feedback on Caddis around these parts but he will be an upgrade for us at right back without doubt, which has been one of many problem positions for us.

    I’d expect him to be used in midfield more

    Sorry but O'Connor shouldn't of got dragged. If O'Connor had some position discipline then they isn't a missive gap to run through.

    Seriously watch O'Connor. Every bloody game he gets dragged all over the pitch.

    Wright could of fouled his man but he tacked his running. Problem was O'Connor mate.

    Watch again!

    And you're obsessed with Wright.

    I'm not obsessed with O'Connor. He's just shi&e!

    Ok, mate let's all blame our midfield for shipping in 2 goals per game.

    No just read everyone elses posts around me, it's fairly universal. I hardly ever mention Wright on this forum, you mention O'Connor every other post, take a look in the mirror mate.

    He left a gap. Didn't stand his ground. Happens every game mate. Every game he plays!

    He's the worst defender we've
    Because he's shi&e and we let in about 2 goals per game.

    So what is your opinion on Wright's contribution to our season so far Fordy?

    A step in the right direction if this is confirmed.

    Aye ......... IF he signs ! (Just keep Edin and Greg away from the team coach as it pulls up in Peterborough ;) )

    Any step would be good at the moment. With our backs against the wall, we can't go further back - Can we ?? :*@

    Yes O'Connor and Doyle have been poor. Payne is a tryer and put in the effort but is an enigma in how we can fit him in to the team for it's benefit. Imho - Wright has added very little anything to justify his wages. He is poor in getting tackles in, his distribution is poor and has added very little offensively.

    Agree totally.

    And people laughed at him when he came to England. No ones laughing now

    I think Payne has been a let down. I wanted more from him.

    To be fair I didn't expect much from Wright.

    I just don’t understand why they are not grasping this, and furthermore why the captain on the field is not reinforcing it!, I am not sure O’Connor is a good captain, he tends to shout a lot, but he needs to be getting the team to maintain their shape and do what the manager wants. I cannot think for one minute that Hopkin has not drilled into them the importance of tackling in midfield and stopping progress. I still have not got over seeing that film with Wright jogging alongside and allowing him into the box.

    Can you imagine Sgt Pepper allowing him to run in undisturbed into the box? he would have stopped him one way or another. Jones likewise, no way would they have let him float nicely into the box and score. Devine is just coming back and will need some time to adjust to the pace and polish his technique. It is one thing in training, quite another in a competitive match.

    Agreed, only Scott Phelan could possibly upgrade the engine room at present.
