    For the injured Mellis

    Another out of position. What was up with bringing JOB on and getting some width seeing as we are losing...

    Preece just said midfield now got a more defensive look. At one nil down...

    I must admit that Hill's decisions of late are starting to make less and less sense to me.

    I bow to your superior football knowledge and vision.

    I haven't given up on Hill, but I'm entitled to question him and change my point of view. If we go on a 10 game winning run then I'd change my view again. As would everyone else. That's how football works.

    Because it allows us to compete and even control the central area. three strikers today, not sure about that.

    Doesn't mean **** if we can't defend a set piece or score our chances at the other end.

    It doesn't. Results show this. We need to go back to basics and play percentages and drop the tippy tappy crap

    this time last week we didn't have a problem with corners. we'd have conceded one in nearly 20 games.

    Amazingly bad tactics by Hill to replace an attacking player with a defensive player when we are losing.

    It sounds to me like we're playing 4-3-3. 3 central midfield players and 3 forwards. So bringing Dawson on for Mellis wouldn't really be playing him out of position.

    Fair point. But when crosses = goals then why three on the middle?
