Consistency is the key. How would you compare this SQUAD to the one which last got in the play offs?
Interesting point...the strength of 03/04 was obviously Mooney and Parkin, with Fallon as back up. You'd have to say better than Cox and Paynter...with Corr as back up.
Eyeglue was a tricky winger although he didn't want to play there, obviously not in McManatee's class, but experienced at the level and effective.
Midfield, for all his detractors and I was certainly one, Matty Hewlett had a decent season, again by then an experienced pro....Craig Easton is better, Michael Timlin who knows, but he's certainly started well.
Lard boy showed some potential, is Timlin capable of being better?
Migs gave us 30 odd games....he was class, but as we know injury prone...Nalis is as good but can he do a season?
At the back we had a young Jerel for a bit and Matty Hoofwood and then Judas O'Hanlon...we're stronger this season I'd say....Rhys Evans had a good season and if MM could accept the evidence of his eyes Phil Smith is better.
Full backs? Infuriating as he was at times I was a Gurney fan...you need a bit of thuggery on occasions...he could also play a bit. He'd be better than J Smith or Amankwaah.
Daisy at left back or sometimes Nicho......seems we have a similar problem, a weakness.
Would be a good game if those two sides met....
