    Systems, systems and more systems.. the old way was the best

    Absolutely. We're also a bit slow. I'm all for players in wide positions, whether they be wingers or wingbacks.

    Systems, systems and more systems.. the old way was the best

    I have no doubt that, at the time, such formations worked well. Football though, like all sports, evolves. Whether for better or worse is a matter of personal opinion. If a manager thought such a formation would work in modern football, I'm sure they would use it....but nobody does. I also...

    I hope he asks it anyway.

    Is that where he would step over the ball and watch it run out of play?

    Hopefully Steve Staunton just likes watching League One football. :whistle:

    The first ruled out goal I can understand (even if I disagree with the decision). Goalkeepers are a protected species these days; any contact (even perceived contact) is whistled. The second one, though.....well, you see those paid frequently, though it was marginal.

    Perhaps Barton shouldn't have been rushed back? I'm sure he's a better player than this but he does look off the pace. Don't think Kilbane has been terrible but he doesn't really impose himself on the match like I think he should (though he did impose himself on someone's shin.) The game is...

    I would say the same about Hussey.

    First time I've seen McGoldrick, looks like he'll be a good pickup. As for Baker, I don't think he's been terrible today, but I can see why he's a League One player at best; good touches interspersed with complete cockups.

    Paul Tisdale

    Wouldn't have a problem with his appointment. Think he'd do quite a good job.

    Crewe V SKYBLUES ... MATCH thread...........

    Complete and unadulterated rubbish. Don't mind losing if we've at least put up a decent showing.

    Annoying game to take your mind off the managerial situation

    Like I said earlier : who the flan is Ady Williams? Seriously, I do not remember this bloke at all. Quinn, on the other hand..... :facepalm:

    Annoying game to take your mind off the managerial situation

    There's another one on there which is to name all players from 1992 - today. I'm sure there are players missing from the list, but even so......jeez we've seen some duds turn out in Sky Blue over the years!

    Annoying game to take your mind off the managerial situation

    I got 94, but haven't been since 2000. Tell you what though, some names there are completely unfamiliar. Who the flan are Ady Williams and Matt Heath? And there was a season where Morten Hyldgaard appeared the most in goal?????
