The least said about todays match the better.. Dennis Birch did his level best again to carry out his PR Work with the fans players and officials - I hope you folks on the fans coach had a quiet trip back to Alty
That said, I have an amount of sympathy for Lee Sinnott - We have a squad of 16 Players of which 4/5 are youth team lads - add to that the suspensions and injuries and basically the team picks itself. There is no plan B simply because we havent the squad to adopt a plan B.
We heard at the beginning of the season that we had one of the healthiest playing budgets in the league (top 10 I believe) -
To have success you need as a bare minimum 16 players on the books who have experience of playing at this level (no disrespect to the young lads) they do there best and fair do's to them for that.
We either need to ship some players out pretty sharpish and replace them with better ones or release funds to lee to strengthen the squad (numbers wise).. I am not a greal lover of keep getting short term loans in as they dont fix the problem it is more of a make do and mend
Personally I dont think that things are going to improve much if we have to carry on as things are at present it will be good one week not so good the next.
I feel we play far too narrow both in defence and up front hence everything goes down the middle especially when Nicky Clee plays central as he did today. The bloke is superb when playing wide but he is far less effective when central. Teams suss us out pretty quickly both home and away and there wingers have acres of space in which to start there attacks.
Finally I never have been a fan of everyone being back at set pieces/corners, we never have An Out ball to play and the ball just comes straight back..
Apart from that - Things are going swimmingly
See you at Colwyn Bay on Tues.......
