Go-on Lee my son! :o

I've got to be honest but I genuinely thought all Luggy's bluster about him being a midfielder was just that - bluster. I thought he was trying to man-manage a few goals out of him. Today proved how wrong I was. I thought he was simply brilliant in there today. 8)

Dont be silly .. thats Pook! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

oh do fuck off

peacock still goes down to quick for my liking.if only mrs arriba would do so

 :D  :D  :D

Classic Andy King school of quotations

she does   :D

I  thought Peacock was superb yesterday. swoon..  I also have to say in Fatbury's defence that Pook played well yesterday too  :oops:  he went for everything. Get stuck in my son! Good to see the team playing some decent football yesterday.  More of the same on Saturday please  :D

One thing that was clear is that he mustn't go any further back (i.e. centre back) - there were two occasions where te ball got played into our box and he let it bounce once and the other he went to clear volley it clear and sli9ced it when a header would've been far simpler - he hasn't got a natural defensive instinct - which is perfectly understandable.

Saying that, he was good. I hate watching us on tv so much and get so flaming nervous that any analysis of yesterday is taken with a pinch of salt - and I wonder how much praise he'd have got had he not scored - but he did put himself about and show good feet (what a horrible cliche) - put Timlin or Evans alongside him, someone who you can rely on to anchor and let him break forward late Cahill-style, and we could be onto something

Sorry to disagree, but I cannot agree with the Pook played well comment.  He gave the ball away too cheaply, he really needs to concentrate a little more, play it simple and he'd be an ok player.  

Only change for next week's match would be dropping Pook.

Peacock, Roberts, Zaboub , Bazza and Lukas all played well, very well.

I've certainly seen Pook play far worse. Didn't think he did too much wrong yestersday on the whole IMHO.

I think its fair to say that Evo will pretty much come straight back in for him anyway when he's fit.

So who would play the 'anchor man' role? Don't think Evans will be fit enough. The Cock is better attacking, and Don't think Weston can play there effectively enough. I feel Pook is the only option til Evans comes back. (unfortunately)

Timlin can play there.

I've decided that old leapy is my favourite player now :D .
I would bloody love it if he scored that crucial goal to take us up the season. He thoroughly deserves it. He gives 110% every game he plays. I lav him.

He could certainly teach Weston a thing or two about being a midfielder. If young Curtis carries on being quite a huge liability every time he plays in the middle, he'll find himself in Bobby Howe territory

I would much rather Peacock being the next Gerrard than Lampard!

I'd perfer him to be the new Scholes...much better than those other two!

Agree with Sadie on that one - Peacock to score the goal that takes us up would be immense. He seems to want it more than anyother player and he is great with the fans.

The look on his face when he scored on Saturday was priceless too. Top lad

'Appy Days

I'd agree with that, he seems to be ok without the ball putting tackles in and general off the ball stuff. but once the ball is at his feet he seems to lose confidence in a way

Pook was good I thought. His job was to break up the play and he did do that. Positioned himself quite well in general. Did mess up a few times, but then I thought everyone did that at some stage in the game.

what he said,

I thought his defensive work sunday was spot on, but his use of the ball and attacking play wasnt brilliant
