Can someone explain this bit to me? It’s not always playing a big one against a big one for the sake of it. We might think whoever our biggest one is can’t deal with Hanson aerially anyway, because he’s that good in the air we might pick a smaller one.

Something about a 90s pop group and a TV aerial. I don't think he can get very good reception.

Think he's saying that Hanson will probably win flick on's against whoever we put against him, so use the centre halves to mark the Intended targets where they'll get more chance to clear. |

I think you are right, but it doesn't hurt to mark him with a bigger player who may be able to beat him in the air but he is one of the best target men in this league. Apparently Yeovil beat them last week by packing the midfield with 3 central midfielders with some pace and Bradford couldn't deal with that......sounds ideal. |

Tomorrow will be a good test....first of the away games v a norvern hoofball team, and there's plenty of them this season. |

You would think our 'style' is perfectly set up to counter hoofball.
I'm expecting a win

But our defence is very inexperienced, and may not cope too well under the barrage. I'm expecting a defeat  |

Before a barrage can start they have to get the ball. no one has managed to do that with any regularity against us this season. I'd take a point but quietly confident of a win.

I read on the Bradford Forum that if Swindon play football they will play us off the park as with Hanson in the side, their tactic is to lump it up to him.
Quietly confident.
Someone said Iraq were playing on Sunday, is Yaser back? We have good cover in midfield with Reeves ready to step in and Rogers back in training.

Bradford will put a big side out, sit back & try to bully us, I'm sure of that. Just got to hope we can find a killer touch in the final third!

Hopefully  making his debut will bag a couple. |

I'm wary of what is known in Spain, as the FIFA virus, namely your big players come back from international breaks, either with their heads in the clouds, or knackered out by jet lag. Under these circumstances your usual nurturers of possession, make more concessions than a No, Westminster politician in Glasgow. |
