    44 bloody 2, please.

    Simple tactics, square pegs n all that. It's League 1, not Champ. In this League you need physicality, experience (preferably in dark arts *ahem* Hourihane) and 2 good wingers.

    We've got the makings of a promotable squad. Use it!

    Not sure about that. We've got some really weak players.

    Set them up in any formation you like but we’re miles off a promotion squad. We’re really poor at both ends of the pitch. Do well to make top half with this lot…

    Would only be viable after January window with the addition of some wingers.

    He moved to that today and we had to have our beat striker on one wing and Lofthouse on other side.... That is far from good enough to be able to play that currently.

    Normally I agree with 442.

    But we haven't got a single player who can play LB or RB.

    Or even CB by the looks of it right now

    I think you're spot on. However, they aren't tough enough.

    Need players that you tell em' their ***** they prove you wrong.

    Only bloke in our team right now is Humphry's. One bright spot today.

    Went out to right back and central midfield to fetch ball for himself.

    We haven't got any full backs or wingers. Or a decent big striker. Or two strong centre backs. Apart from that, yeah 'promotable squad' lolz.

    Big January coming up. If no genuine signings are brought in that'll send a clear message to me. Yes, January isn't as significant as Summer window, but at the minute it's the only hope to save this season cos we have none atm.

    GK
    Cotter Robbo Earl LB
    RW Nwakali Connell DKD
    ST Humphrys

    DKD isn't a winger, Cotter can't defend well enough to be a RB and there is no chance we'll be switching to 4-4-2

    The formation really is the least of our problems, Wrexham and Huddersfield both play 5-3-2 like us and are having no problems. Difference is they have quality players.

    Can't play DKD as a winger. Simply not quick enough and a first touch like Rammell.
