I work with a guy whose surname is Marley. Apparently his sister or someone just did the family tree and found he's 3rd cousin of Bob...

on that basis, 1-1

Heavy loss today 4-1 as defence isnt up to it and have no faith in the keepers.

Are they both playing? You may have something there...

Not sure how Hussey and Taylor will work together unless Taylor is taking a more central role.

Nice to see Mullin given more gane time but Anderson at times is our best outlet for turning defence into attack.

Obviously an effort to keep it simple, tighten up at the back and possibly nick something from a set piece.

Anderson was absolutely dreadful last week - albeit along with others. Still can’t get the Richards/Norris combo, though.

Tough on Knoyle who hasn’t done badly at all. I’d still prefer Will Henry to either of the other 2.

Elsnik could do with a performance, too.

Anderson wasn't the worst of a bad bunch it is a bit harsh on him but he offers nothing defensively.

Very harsh on Knoyle who was one of our better performers last week and he has offered more than most when we attack.

I think I would prefer Henry to either of the other keepers too.

Richards cannot seem to play with Norris successfully and would prefer Mullin alongside Richards TBH.

Elsnik has not played well since his injury really he looks tired and off the pace, such a shame as he is such a talent when fit.

A performance indeed and some of these players may well perform today. The sudden recovery of Hussey (coincidence). In the same weeks DF has left he's been sub and now starts. Some players just on't work under some managers (I'm well aware that Hussey and DF worked together before) or they can fall out. Ever fallen out with your Manager/Employee? Even if you had a good working relationship with them prior? Same thing in football and with much more ego added, probably more difficult to resurrect. Obvious weak links in the squad today runs through the core. Moore, Robbo and Dunne. However, with Banks still out we've little choice. Probably a little harsh on Moore but I think we all know he's not FL standard. Who knows though, playing under the new manager he may take this chance, no matter how slim.

Phil Brown knows he has a task on his hands and must find a fairly quick solution. Understand trying to shore the squad up a little but It might be too soon. If he's managed to instil confidence into the keeper and the defence, then we know Richards is capable of a goal or two. Dare I say it. He is a goalscorer  Wink PB knows how to sure up a defence, so we could go and snatch it by a single goal.

0-1 (Richards)
over 2.5 Yellows (thanks to PV for the ref data)
4,500 (491 Town)
Woodwork hit twice.
Moore saves like Banks in the 90th+ for MoM

Has the look of a flexible 4-1-3-2 to me changing into 4-1-2-3 when attacking.

                  Moore
Purkiss Robertson Menayese Hussey
                  Dunne
 Mullin         Elsnik             Taylor
           Richards    Norris

Not a lot of width in the team though.

A little bit of snow there in the air but no "beast from the east" yet!
