    Also JCR seems to be deceptively slow in the mould of Chris Shuker.</p>

    Their defenders seemed to have no problem catching him up on the few occasions he got away down the right,</p>

    But our Full backs can do it

    Both Werling and Foster put some decent crosses in.

    Werlings crosses got progressively worse,

    just as his defending got worse.</p>

    We've got Ricketts, JCR and Devaney in the squad, and agree, the crosses are poor.

    JCR is so predictable. Get the ball, do a fancy step-over, attempt to get right on the touchline then attempt a cross.

    Devaney struggled to beat his man on Saturday, but done better in previous games coming from the bench.


    Another point though, allot of times we can attempt a quick cross into the box but we don't have any strikers in there.

    Don't agree with the fatigue comment. These guys are Pro's and not actually 'old' are they?

    No wonder they can't beat the opposition with a cross, if they're wearing fatigues it's an unfair advantage. I had some combat trousers on once for paintballing and I was great against those who wore red.

    I think we should get the lawyers in.
