    What about being brave,Roberts,Mdg and Earl in the middle.I'd play Williams as a deep lying defensive midfield centre cos he has pace and can tackle.Play Cotter and Cadden as wingers with no defensive or little responsibility(getting crosses in).Phillips,Connell and Kane in the middle then Cosgrove and Macatee.
    If later in the game we need pace fetch on Jalo,Marsh and Cole in that order.

    I was speaking to many today alot who said similar that the recruitment in the summer wasn't great dallas, watters and Shaw 3 players wasting a wage. The center backs not been good enough and the pines injury. But all said the same about the negativity in tactics and we never had a good enough defence to sit deep and defend a lead like Collins tried on many occasions. Also strong rumours that he had fall outs with more than one key player. I know your a big Collins fan and thought he was harshly done by but if you can't play a different formation organise the one you can play, I watched his football all season and I still couldn't say what Collins ball was.

    I wouldn’t even consider myself as a fan of Collins. I don’t really have an opinion either way. I just don’t believe he had the options to change much. I don’t believe we have any other systems we can play successfully & I don’t believe we can play on the front foot because of the lack of pace at the pack.

    All of them probably. Until the board change or tweak their strategy, it wont make a difference who we have as a HC.

    So we’re facing the prospect of having a brand new coach, 3 days before the playoffs. A brand new coach who has never coached a single game of English league football. All a bit of a shambles innit.

    So you'd rather stick with Devaney and Stead who have been part of the problem? I see it as a little positive, can't be any worse surely.

    Why are we assuming it’s Mr Sledgehammer?
    Could be a familiar face…

    Is this Thalhammer bloke nailed on the next HC?? We need to get recruitment right first, cos I’m not convinced he’ll do any better than Collins did when the out of contract players leave, Mcatee goes back to Luton and any possible signings we make during the summer arrive.

    I genuinely have no idea. Seems like two really bad options either way. I don’t know which I think is the least bad option.

    I genuinely don’t think MD would pull up any trees if he was given the job as much as I like him. Equally, I don’t think the new guy will either.
