    Everybody expects an opposition side to have a Plan B. We need to do something unexpected and have a Plan Q or a Plan Y.

    I agree, there’s even a place for Cotter out on the wing without the pressure of having to actually defend, with protection behind him. Same goes for Cadden.

    It might be old it might be a chestnut, but can anybody prove different. Yes we are 5th in league, but i for one have seen us play better football in other seasons and been at other end of table. This season we have been lucky, except for all the dodgy refs

    This is the main reason.

    Which would infer that we need to work on Plan A (especially at home), before worrying about Plan B.

    We had one of the best goal differences, too (last Friday).

    But it is just a lie. And I'm bored of hearing it after every defeat.

    No it is not a lie. Nobody wants the reds to go up more than me, but this season especially at home we have rode our luck, the football in general has been crap, and to me it is the way they are being coached last season we were quicker, playing reasonable football, not this sideways playing like this season, and most of the players are the same ones

    I thought our plan B against Bolton was to sit deep and invite them on :(

    Edit: ooops, didn't see redrum's reply.

    A couple of months ago he was introducing young uns onto matchday bench but that seems to have stopped, just when we are needing some fresh ideas, but yet he insists with Russell, the mind boggles
