    Hunt playing today

    I would rather see 4-1-3-1-1 RCC Ricketts Rammage Stokes Hunt Fleck (Bigi next two) Cole Vincelot Murphy Maddison Armstrong Actually for next two probably Vincelot where Fleck is, then Job for Cole with Cole in the middle of the three.

    Wrong team choices today !

    Watching their passing and shooting drills pre match tells me there is plenty of good ability in there too. In fact their passing drill compared to ours looked quicker and more fluid. I know game situations are different, but drills are a good indicator. I always watch them. To me it was no...

    Is this a Christ the King Social Club Rumour after 12 pints of Guinness? Could pull in a few extra supporters from County Coundon!

    Wrong team choices today !

    According to Clough Burton were not at their best compared to recent games, especially in the first half. Said they were too nervous. I think their record speaks for itself this season. Have a habit of destroying unbeaten home records.

    Sam Ricketts

    He was the first to put an arm round Phillips.

    The pitch

    It takes the right conditions to lay a pitch, plus time for it to settle. It has barely stopped raining since October, the ground is full, I can tell from just walking the dogs. The pitch is not bad all things considered and certainly nothing like the Baseball ground in the seventies...

    Sam Ricketts

    Captain is a role that involves, the pitch, the changing room, the training field and the managers office. It is not all about calling the line. Although that is a skill not to be underestimated. Every good side needs three or four leaders anyway. I am sure Ricketts does a good job.

    Disappointing, but still in our hands

    The top 5 have all lost 5 games each except Walsall 4 and Gillingham 6. That suggests it will be a tight run in. So lots to still play for. Games in hand are not always points in the bag. I doubt none of the top 5 will replicate their first half of the season results exactly. So I...

    Disappointing, but still in our hands

    How does "Wigan are" become stagnate?

    Disappointing, but still in our hands

    Stagnate building momentum. As much as we might be surprised to see Burton up there they are well drilled and organised. Don't underestimate their skill in quick passing which they demonstrated in the kick in to a much faster pace than ourselves. Shooting they went throughout the whole team...

    Burton Albion (Home) Match Thread

    Burge has never been slated by me in fact I defended him against some of the cc unfair criticism. Both are young keepers who have their faults. But I still think RCC has proved to be the better of the two so far. I think the fact we have been unable to bed in a regular back four is the big...

    Disappointing, but still in our hands

    I know, but with half a season left you would beams to think they won't slip up. It is also about staying in touch and keep them looking over their shoulder. Then with two games to go they may feel it is theirs to give away and that is when teams often falter. We have work to do for sure...

    Disappointing, but still in our hands

    That is like saying you can't win a match because you are two nil down at half time. We have to up our game second half of the season, but with a settled back four I can see more attacking options even with our current players. It involves Vincelot pushing forward and Maddison playing just...

    Burton Albion (Home) Match Thread

    I would not go that far. RCC made good saves. Burton dominated us at corners all round not RCC's fault. But he needs to be more vocal. In fact all our back four are quiet.

    Burton Albion (Home) Match Thread

    RR yesterday but too near the corner for my liking. Couldn't always see players numbers. Which makes it hard to assess players, especially the opposition. It was a bit like baseball the pitch had a diamond shape. Thought I was at an away match at one stage lol

    Murphy

    That's just it though he doesn't drift in and out. You get a 15 minute spell on a good day. I get the impression teams have learnt how to play him. Put a midfielder on him and get the fullback to cover behind. It is where him Maddison and Lamieras need to swap round occasionally. Just to...
