    Transfer Rumour Charlie Hughes

    It’s really very basic. You either commit to having a solid defence by playing four players there who prioritise defending. Or you go for our model of playing two defenders at CH and two full backs who are better going forward than defending. There are merits in both. But if you go for the...

    I think the key word there is rumour. He strikes me as the sort of person who would struggle to be annoyed about anything at all.

    That’s just the way he plays. It’s not tiredness.

    30 Years ago Today

    Remember it well. Snow covered pitch - they just didn’t turn up. That midfield of Rennie and Darby still haunts me.

    Transfer Rumour Charlie Hughes

    Yes. Just headed and hoofed. Nothing Kitching or Thomas don’t do. He’s a good champ CH. But don’t see much more there

    Transfer Rumour Charlie Hughes

    CH is not the issue. We play without full backs.

    I think we’ll get a big reaction on Saturday and beat Bristol. They’ll be smarting from that. We’ve won plenty of games that were in the balance but just not to be tonight at a place we just don’t like.

    The ‘wobble’ month

    We’re still 10 points off third. No panic. No wobble - we just didn’t take our chances. We’ll put that right.

    What’s frustrating is we’ve cut out quite a few abysmal goals by stopping our habit of pissing about at the back trying to look like Baresi on relaxants and gone more direct. We slip back into it again and bang they score. I’m still not having Dasilva as improved. If you think he has just watch...

    I thought we missed a trick not putting Simms on at HT with Wright. Probably 7’s all round. KKH possibly 6 with Kitching mom

    One of those nights. Playing on a ploughed field against 10 shit kickers. Patently obvious Wright, Torp, Rudoni not fit. Take the point and get out of Preston. That’s that over with. No disaster

    Doing well on a complete bog. Pitch is dangerous at both ends. Maybe take a CH off and get either Simms or EMC on.

    Decent team and squad tonight. I think we’ll catch them on the break a fair bit. Take our chances and we’ll win

    Not talking about yesterday. It’s a theme. We concede lots of goals. Off the top of my head West Brom. Two goals via completely absent full back positioning. It’s a choice we make which is working. But we’re never going to be able to shut up shop, so if we don’t keep taking chances there will be...

    Don’t want to bang on about it too much but it is obvious defence is our issue. And the main issue is our full backs. Put simply they are better going forward than defending. Positionally they are dire. It’s why we concede a lot of goals. Luckily we’ve been scoring a few as well!

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    We’ll get a couple in in Jan. But we’re top of the league getting lots of media attention. It will be one of those windows that will be a good one if we retain our best players
