I asked about Leam, has he been dropped or what, the reply was no he has been sick........!!!!

I agree 100% with this Leam Richardson is a natural leader and is one of our most experienced players especially in the league which is what we need. always 100% in which ever position he plays however i think his best position is on the right. our main concern over the past few years is central defence, anyone worth the salt can see this??? and as for him been ill? he was only ill for the peterborough game as he was on the bench the game before and i spoke to him before the game and he was unsure why he was left out and seemed fine then????????????????
2 centre halves with experience please..........................................:e gged:

both John and Jimmy reckon that we have the best attacking right back in the league (Cav), the best midfielder (Craney) and the best target man (Mullin). They both reckoned that with the addition of two quality centre backs and a 20 goal a season striker to play alongside Mullers we will challenge the top three

but is that a possibility given stanleys budget?

They've said he was sick ............. or am I being too cynical.

BTW, What about having men on the posts for corners?

But they also think Williams is a class defender who is just off form....???

HR asked this question and John for some strange reason said it's up to the goalkeeper whether he has one on the front post or one on the back I kept thinking why not both but he said it would be suicide to do that as it would leave a free man in the box, once again I was puzzled by his thinking.

Bagpuss and Oggy agree, is this a first?

We never leave free men in the box from corners, do we?

[cmonstanley]

its up to the keeper you would think it was up to the captain.he is supposed to relay the managers tactics and be a natural leader so is this where we are going wrong.kenny arthur for captain when he comes back,why because he is a nutruel a newbie who has experience who everybody should look up to...about having

[maccawozzagod]

two men on the posts leaves more gaps in the box and we have conceded fewer goals from corners this season than previously, apparently.

He leaves it up to the goalie as that is his specific job to set the defence how they want it - John won't overrule a goalkeepers decision.

[cmonstanley]

probably because we have conceded fewer corners, because the opposition have scored instead of us conceding corners

[cmonstanley]

ive just remembered something,i can remember somebody asking bavs why he doesnt have anybody on the post and he said its up to the gafferi like it double bluff the opposition they are now going to go for the far post and hey presto we will have a defender on the far post, pure genuis
we dont want to tell the opposition our tactics do we

[Pendle Red]

Are we looking for an experienced Central Defender
