We tried that first half yesterday. And it was terrible. Eccles got pulled out to RB. It’s his natural inclination. Meant even more space in the middle than normal. At least Torp stays central

He got pulled out there because mve was fucking off and not getting back.

Apologies as I'm not a coach, just an observer, but for me, over the last few games our defence panics when we have to defend. A few games we have conceeded a goal and then the opposition have been all over us. Bobby Thomas is an excellent player especially when going forward but he and Kitching get very excitable as Thomas did to get sent off. Bidwell is a calming influence but FL doesn't seem to trust him enough to come on and help see out a game. Possbly the last player we had that can do that is Fadz and I still think we need that type of calming influence when we are under the cosh. We only have 24 hours so I cannot recommend anyone but possibly the player i'm refering to is someone in Div 1 or 2, and not necessarly a premiership player, but someone who is streetwise and can rough it up.

Perhaps having a ball winner (Onyeka) in front of them will take a bit of pressure off
