Andy mangan?

Mangan missed a one on one last night, to keep his place he needs to score when he comes on & force the managers hand. Unfortuanetly he ain't doing that & Boco when he's back is

PS Who you gonna punch Tony?
 
I agree that Mangan aint finishing so maybe Browny should be getting a shot, although he doesn't have the same devasting effect that Mangy has when he runs at tired defenders.
 
Anybody that thinks Mullin should be left out of the squad obviously didn't go away to FGR last season. I was completely hammered, and I remember how poor we were without him. Mangan has a lot of pace, but is shocking at finishing. Maybe Brown should be given more oppurtunities, he just never seems to get a fair crack of the whip.

Like when he ran at the left back last night, everybody screaming, "DON'T DIVE IN, ANDY", one yellow card later. (He hardly touched him!)

But he does make a big difference when he comes on, really like the lad if he could just engage his brain sometimes.

Exactly, he has an effect when he runs at tired defenders, but defenders are not tired when the game starts. Mangy has an effect in the last 20 minutes but not as much effect in the first 20 minutes.

Are you crazy ? Paul Mullin in midfield. Mully is a striker, a target man, a player to hold up the ball. He doesn't tackle, he hasn't got any speed. What use would he be in midfield ? As Kipax would say - who would you drop to play him in midfield ?<!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- google_ad_section_end -->
 
What ?

Mullin is THE most effective player we have got, he can turn the game around at times by himself

Before knocking him at FL level, give him a fair chance to get going, eh ?

Just out of interest - how many league games have you seen him play this season.

Err.....

Can't actually remember him MISSING a header at the Lincoln game.

Does the sort of job that Davies does for Bolton - target man that holds up or flicks on for others. Just need people following up that are prepared to shoot - we seemed to be a bit scared to do that on Friday, making things a bit more complicated in the box.

On the subject of the midfield, it seems to me that Craney & Roberts don't seem to rush back when we lose possession - I don't know if that's what they're instructed to do, to give us more attacking options when we get the ball back, but it means that we're often outnumbered in midfield. Certainly for Linclon's third goal, the guy had a free run towards the edge or the box, with no-one standing in front of him, never mind getting a tackle in.

That's the defence's job, nowhere to be found as usual. Nobody organising them, every man for himself, desparate defending.

Totally agree Jeff, you might get away with it at Conf level, but in this league we need to be more organized
