Tony, I'm a technophobe but finally got persuaded by my kids to use twitter and it's both easy and a great means of instant communication for something like this. At some point we hope meetings can have a web linkup but for tonight it's twitter only I'm afraid

@CJ_covblaze: Andy Henson: It must be hard to lay foundations down when you only get 5 minutes in a management job now.

@CJ_covblaze: NM: We want to lay these foundations for long after we have left

@CJ_covblaze: Pete: Our team has no pace, are you going to bring in some quicker players?

@CJ_covblaze: SP: Vital that we have pace in the final third. We need more goals from other sources next season rather than Leon, Baker ect

@CJ_covblaze: Terry: Cody scored elsewhere on loan. Why isn't he a regular?

@CJ_covblaze: SP: I didn't call him back. We do not have the players available that suit his style. Terrific attitude and needs to improve his link play

@CJ_covblaze: @Graeme_Hawley: Who are your major influences for the way how your team plays football?

@CJ_covblaze: SP: The Spanish way of playing has influenced me heavily

(Dont particularly like this! Our league is very different to the way football can be played in Spain!!)

@CJ_covblaze: @clare_a_bel: Where do we need to toughen up (telegraph quote)?

@CJ_covblaze: SP: to go up we have to become more resilient and have to know how to win a game 1-0 or 2-0

@CJ_covblaze: SP: That's something we will have to consult with you guys and get your opinions
