Have to agree about Buxton + Mustoe woefully lacking pace defensivley that,s why I think JB tried 3 at the back will be punished against good sides thought Bury were poor having spent so much I think our blg problem is finishing sides off should have been 3-1 at least half time Gray really should have scored.

- Thread starter smudgie
- Start date
Good post! How about Hunt and Buxton swopping positions and picking Lids, who can tackle and has some pace,at left back when fit. Would that help to solve it?
Agree with others that this was definitely our best performance so far this season - Kal, for whatever reason raised his game & really showed what he can do when his head's in the right place.
Bury, to say the amount of money they've spent didn't look all that & although they were much better in 2nd half I still can't figure out how we got nothing from the game.
Was also puzzled as to why the ref didn't add any time at all for all the treatment needed on Rose's 'injury' in added time but glad the lad had a miraculous recovery as soon as the whistle was blown

It's a difficult one Redraine,hunty and lids are defenders who can join in,were I think Mustoe and Buxton are offensive players who aren't as effective defending.
Both have a place in football but for me at Accrington,we need a platform of clean sheets to build on.
I think only fitness will stop Buxton playing in midfield as he struggles to get back we out of position,and in midfield there's no resting.
Back to bury game,there Three at the back and centre mid were the worst I have seen this season and they played better when they went down to ten men and a back four --- just like us !
Kal in my view could play at higher level. i'm sure, if someone could just get his head right, He wasn't on Rangers books cos he had no potential.? If such a person could be found it would be an big benefit to the lad and Stanley. As to why the ref added no time on, i agree wi pud, he was (another) complete knob fer both sides.Agree with others that this was definitely our best performance so far this season - Kal, for whatever reason raised his game & really showed what he can do when his head's in the right place.

Cashy,I think Kai's performance/goal in the first half was more to do with putting on a show for a team that's made a bid for him !
He wasn't as effective in the second half when they made their subs and altered their shape,but would image did enough for an improved offer from bury !!.

Have to disagree mate, have seen him play superb pre season,also last season,its consistency he lacks fer me, sod all else.
Didn't say hes not got ability,what i meant was he hasn't set the world on fire in the first four games (go subbed and benched),so it was a good time for him to put a performance in to remind a club that wants to double his money and sign him !!.Have to disagree mate, have seen him play superb pre season,also last season,its consistency he lacks fer me, sod all else.
He reminds me so much of John Miles !
Yes, Red, that's what gleaned from the aside from Mr.Beattie about what's in the club's best interest.
For that reason, I also tend to agree with F19 about Mr.Naismith's possible motivation for this first half performance (which I didn't see, but can believe it was good if Cashy thought so).
I hope I'm wrong on both counts and that Kal continues to bag a.....er,....bagful of goals for Stanley.
My only concern Cashy is the bigger the club the bigger the expectations and he seems a confidence player who would struggle to deal with it.Aye but unless hes totally dumb, he can do much better n Bury (no disrespect to em) in my view.
One word "no"
Kal was a free agent when he joined us and no fee was paid for his services.
The last fee ASFC paid was for Sean Mc and please no more posts on that one!!
The fee was to the taxman to lift our transfer embargo. While it was paid in order to get the transfer of Naismith completed, we would have had to pay it anyway.
For what it's worth I don't think we should be rejecting financial offers for players that have to be carried through most matches. In our position, application of talent is required for 90 minutes, not just when you're in the mood.

I'd sell Naismith tomorrow if it meant we could get an experienced lg 2 centre midfield player and a target man in. It was nailed on he was going to perform yesterday in front of his potential new suitors.
There's 1000s of players at all levels of the game who could be fantastic if their attitude was right - they are the players that get managers the sack because they always get a 2nd chance because they could be match-winners, but rarely are.
Buxton and mustoe's distribution is awful.
Need to get Winnard and liddle back in the team, Hunt to right back and desperately need a c mid, another forward and a keeper

Got to agree about Lids frank,good defender and has been very unlucky
Problem is that I doubt if you could buy a new floodlight, never mind a good midfielder and striker (both like gold dust in League2) with what Bury allegedly offered.
I agree about selling, but not about giving away a potential match winner at a discount.
Also agree will be glad when Mr.Liddle is back to fitness and offers a defensive option.
Lids has also shown in the past that he can play the ball-winning role in midfield. He won't win many headers but, unlike Hunty, is young and versatile enough to learn positional sense.
Cant believe i missed that Shaker !!.
Didn't Lids play CB for Cooky when injuries kicked in?,so playing centrally would be a problem.
