    So much for the response after Saturday.
    No positive reaction at all from the players.

    I'm not saying we are anywhere near France but they played very positively because they knew they had quality up front to score. They started with four out-and-out attackers and so why can't we do the same? So what if we lose 4-3, it's better than chasing a 1-0 with no effort. Get Cook, Walker, Wright, Banks and Oliver in the line-up somehow

    No, we lost against Northants. This one, we didn't win or even look like wanting to.

    I have no idea why Young has not been able to make the bench in recent months, scored one of our best goals this season at VP then disappeared without trace.
    Same can be said of Sutton, can cover both full-back and midfield roles yet doesn't get a look-in.
    Parenthood must have really taken it out of him.

    If you think Sutton is the answer, there is zero hope!

    I agree, why not go for a 4-1-3-2.
    With a defending midfielder 2 quick wide men a creator in the middle and 2 up front

    Lewis

    Halliday
    Platt
    Critchlow/odasina
    Fouldes

    Smallwood/ songo

    Banks
    Walker
    Wright

    Cook
    Young

    Doyle
    East
    Sutton
    Angol
    Eisa
    Gillead

    Being 5th in a poor league is nothing to sing about.

    Yes, Cook is Joint top scorer in the league but in l truth he’s mega poor off the ball.

    Fans problem that we can see the issues and nothing is getting done about them.

    I just see what he is meant to be doing? We certainly don’t need him so deep. He can’t play that role.

    yeah but we call them very very defensive midfielders bordering on being centre backs

    Sorry but disagree on many counts. Songo isn’t a defender to name the primary reason . He’s sadly a waining midfielder, now lacking in pace. The rest sorry , again can’t agree.

    Oh come on Dave, he has no goal record of any meaning, lack of fear is one thing , hitting the onion bag is another. I recall him scoring one away from memory. He runs well in a straight line for sure but technically he’s no comparison, no matter how limited Gilly is. Like I said he isn’t the answer, even against poor opponents as this season has proved. I honestly believe he was a poor signing but hey I await his and Gillys goals .
