is it the signing-and playing - of Wright that is causing us to start lumping the ball forwards? I know from the figures that as soon as Conlon was dropped we started on our unbeaten run with the demolition of Oldham-does having a target man make it an easy option for the defence to lump it ??
Would say probably not. With Wright & Hayes up front we played some excellent attacking football at PV. It was only when Ritchie took Wright off that we seemed to start hoofing it long, bizarrely.
RE: having watched the goals from Port Vale that isn't controversial! First 2 down totally to Ritchie playing Austin at centre half and Hassle at right back imho.
RE: having watched the goals from Port Vale that isn't controversial! It is considering we have one of the better defensive records in this ale house league
I prefer Hassell at centre back as well looks more composed and doesn't get pulled out of position-I thought Austin's preferred position was right back anyway?
RE: having watched the goals from Port Vale that isn't controversial! when i saw the team on here on sat i assumed Hassell would be playing centre half, seen the goals the defending looked shambolic
RE: having watched the goals from Port Vale that isn't controversial! Keystone cops-esque. Colgan saved what should have been a certain goal before they scored. wtf Ritchie was playing with that defensive formation God only knows.
