Fleetwood

If as expected we get nothing from our visit to Derby the Fleetwood game becomes even more important.If a team reflects it`s manager/coach we can expect a contrast between Elliott and Brown and their respective teams,with one being passive and negative and the other the complete opposite ?

Ironically it`s highly possible that Fgr will beat us and help to relegate us to ensure another Hell-classico next season ?

Re: so what to do

The only name you've mentioned I would consider realistic is Dave Artell. He was my number one choice in the summer, and I think he got the rough end of one at Crewe. What concerns me is why no-one has taken a punt on him yet. I've heard rumours that we asked to speak to Gavin Strachan (coach at Ce...

I wouldn't mind seeing Bonds being given a licence to bomb forward a bit more. I maintain Sercs has been rushed back so with Broom being able to go forward (assuming no issues with Ferry or Jacko from Tuesday) then drop Perry, rest Sercs and a three of Bonds, Rea and Broom works for me.

Because Wade`s way isn`t to pass the ball via midfield,hence no player is ever in space to receive the ball from defenders so that`s inevitable as is the usual punt up field.

Re: Return of the Duff

There will, understandably and rightly, be plenty of attention on Duff tomorrow ahead of the game.. But, from kick off onwards, he's just another opposition manager and we must all get four square behind Wade and the lads. No ifs, no buts. No harking back to a glorious past if we suffer a setback. ...
