I have a question

[Chris]

Did we play 5-3-2 Saturday and did Alex Haddow play centre midfield?

[Barry Scott]

i think we played 4-4-2 as thus:

foster

howard, daly, gyoury, haddow

spencer, hyatt, barrowcliffe, steer

hodges, miller

 

but it may have changed on the fly with steer and haddow changing up on the left, but barras and hyatt were in the middle from what i can remember

[Nathan]

I was certain that Haddow played in midfield.

Yeah, I agree with Rebel Nathan. Formation seemed to be:

 

Foster

Howard, Gyoury, Daly (back 3)

Spencer (right), Steer (left) (wingbacks)

Haddow, Barrowcliff, Hyatt (midfield 3)

Hodges, Miller (front 2)

 

If Haddow performs like Saturday every week then we should stick with it!

[BFR]

The formation changed depending on whether we had the ball or not. In possession it was more 3-5-2 with Howard as a sweeper but when they had possession it was more the normal 4-4-2. As for where Haddow was strictly playing, lord only knows as he kept popping up on the right and we were exposed with nobody at left back.

[GarySTFC]

It started as a 4-4-2 with:

 

Foster

Howard, Daly, Gyoury, Steer

Spencer, Barrowcliff, Hyatt, Haddow

Miller, Hodge

 

Hyatt and Haddow continually swapped positions so Haddow was often drifting in from the left into the middle, but he scored his disallowed effort from a central position, and got the assist for Hodgey's goal from breaking down the left.

 

Once we'd scored our second, Howard tucked in behind Daly and Gyoury and played as a sweeper with Steer and Spencer becoming wing backs and Barras, Hyatt/Murphy, and Haddow becoming the central midfielders.

[Guest]

Spencer wing-back erm as much as I think Ryan's one of our better players he's no wing back!

[Nathan]

And Barrowcliff's no midfielder in my opinion!

[BFR]

was when we signed him, though i agree, I'd much rather see him back at left back
