In the Adver this morning (no online linkage yet).
I'm a bit miffed that Maurice would rather play Peacock up front then Paynter, but then maybe that's reading too much into it.
Although, on the otherside at least it should mean Easton and Timlin in the centre.

Peacock did OK up front when he returned to playing up there but Paynter must not be happy...

So thats peacock,corr,paynter the big men up front i would be amazed if they got 20 goals between the 3 of them to be honest.
I really do not see why he offered Peacock a contract to be honest

Whatever next Roberts back up front when he returns from injury?
Then that'll be two strikers who seem to have a phobia of scoring goals.

Paynter and Peacock are both fucking carthorses, I'd be pretty annoyed if either of them get in the starting eleven if everyones fit come August.

Paynter has never scored more than 13 goals in a season.

Now on Adver site: LEE Peacock has been ordered to bring his shooting boots back to pre-season training as he prepares to resume his Town career in the position he first started - as a striker.
Fans favourite Peacock was moulded into a combative midfielder by former boss Paul Sturrock, but spent the last month of the 2007/8 season back in the firing line.
Now manager Maurice Malpas has told Peacock to concentrate on hitting the opposition where it really hurts - on the scoreboard - much to the player's relief.
"I'm back up front," revealed Peacock. "Maurice Malpas sees me more as a striker, so I've just got my head around that now.
"When I stopped playing up front I didn't think I would miss it, but now I'm back there I really enjoyed that last month, especially as we were getting some good results.
"I've spent most of my life playing there and I know I can get a lot sharper than I have been the last couple of years." http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/swindontown/headlines/display.var.2300289.0.lees_back_to_front.php

Let's hope Coxy can make up for LP's shortcomings.

Paynter a good player for this division?
Played 23 (13) Goals 8
following 5 in 1st 6 games (against the shite that was gills and Bornmuff at home)
Then scored 4 in 33 (ok a decent percentage of those were as sub, but still.....)
Peacock was good when shifted back up front, he wins headers and works harder than billy boy. He looked lost at times in midfield, and offered very little in terms of creativity.

I still maintain he is. If he played an entire season up front with Cox, i would put money on them scoring 35-40 goals between them.
