3 attack minded midfielders through the middle in any game is asking for trouble, let alone away from home in a local derby. Be surprised if Colkett or Gladwin successfully complete a tackle all afternoon. Totally naive.

You'd have thought we'd at least have created chances with these midfielders?

Listening to Williams, I have a feeling his teamtalk pre match will send the players into a coma which is why we start so slowly, god he is soooo dull.

Sounds like we are second best yet again all over the place apart from Vigs, and as Steve White says we are "lightweight" in the middle. As that has been patently obvious all season why on earth cannot those in charge of the club see it? Talking to an ex Town player the other day, he was at a loss to understand why a couple of "senior" pros had not been brought in on short term contracts (if necessary) as they are out there.

It's not all his fault. The entire club 'philosophy' is holed below the water line and Power is either oblivious (unlikely) or unwilling to change tack in the search for another gem he can sell for big bucks.

3 halves of football without a single shot on target, in fact we've only had two attempts on goal at all today,

I'm not sure a striker is going to help much, we would need to create a chance for him to score

This, and we need to get hold of the ball first before we can get it to our 'creative players'....

Was that our first attack of the match? 48 mins into the game?

Power was a player, Sherwood to. Surely they knew what made a good team.  Yet we put out a team with no battlers, no leaders, no balance and very little experience.  Fans been crying out for a ball winner, a dirty bugger for like 3 years.  Total joke from those in charge.  Powers fault with recruitment.  Williams is out of his depth and couldn't motivate anyone.  Surely Sherwood has to go to the touch line and wave his fists at them or something. A derby and we have no passion. Shocking.

don't have much choice though do we but Thompson sounds like he needs to push forward as he (and the others) are inviting the high pressure from Rovers, we need to push them back and put them under the pressure.

I'd like to think Kasim could sit in front of a defence and at least make some interceptions. Colkett and Gladwin in front with Gladwin pushing into the CAM position when we've got the ball.

Listening on the radio.  Any chance of a freak thunderstorm in Brizzle to get the game abandoned?
