Re: the striker debate....

 

Granted, when he came on he was largely ineffective on Saturday, but what has Kenny Pratt got to do to earn a place in the starting XI? He has been impressive on the whole since his return to the first-team squad, and, after his introduction against BW, we looked a completely different team. Yet, he was left out in favour of Taylor who has done little for the first team to warrant a place in the starting line-up. He was poor for the hour or so that he was on the pitch. Admittedly, our service to the frontmen was poor all game but I feel that, with Peters, Healy and Pratt, if we can keep the ball on the deck, we could hurt many teams.

Agree with you DM but we need something extra in midfield to feed those front men with quality balls.

Tend to agree with ac/dc here.

 

Its creating chances that is the key-create enough and we will score.

 

Even though we got three against BW-they were all from a form of set piece-and if we are honest-we did'nt exactly pepper the goalmouth with loads of chances going begging,and that was with peters, healey and Pratt.

To be fair, there was obviously a bit of pressure exerted to get the set piece chances.

They did fine that day-but again-you could hardly say we were massively threatening just the same.

 

Thats why i agree with some that we must shoot on sight-we are not good enough to create loads, so its shoot from 30 yards-anything can happen-deflections,great strikes,and at this level-you do get goalies spilling the ball;so as we can't create enough-as others say-just keep omn shooting.

Even shoot from the kick off in centre circle !

I remember Sigere almost scoring that way about 6 years ago

I see that Healy got the first yellow. Did anyone notice who got the second?
