| "If I had any hair it would be in real danger about now...." |
Our first chance today to see the new-look Poppies of the Stimson era, and, er, can't say that there was much obviously different between this fare and that dished up by the barely lamented Morrell Maison. Sure, the new boss is having to work with the increasingly poor-looking squad assembled under Maison's brief tenure. That said, could you make out any differences, performance-wise from our under-achieving squad? Most of whom, based on what we have seen so far, will be lucky to be in gainful Poppies employment come the next transfer window.
We're still attempting to play three up front, with our most dangerous strikers, JP and Moses playing so wide that we might as well hand each of them a flag, and save money on employing linesmen.
We also seem incapable of putting a midfield on the park which can either supplement the strikers, OR help the defenders! Where are they, and what are they doing all game long? Answers on a postcard....
At the back we are, with the exception of Jifel, still unable to defend against even the most modest of oppositions. The recent selection of PATGOD'S favourite ever CB, NKB further adds to the overall feeling that Maison is still in charge.
1 Pick who he believes are our TWO best strikers and play them TOGETHER.
2 Get the players a lot fitter - QUICKLY
3 Sort the midfield out. As it stands we might just a well string four of the dummies from the club shop along the halfway line and trust to luck that the ball might deflect off them into the path of another player.
4 Sack, loan out, ignore, sell (!) or just plain forget about picking NKB EVER AGAIN! He's not a footballer, and picking him can seriously damage a footballer manager's reputation.
5 Get the team to eke out some results in the next few weeks or we could be in some serious do-do.
And you thought your hardest job was going to keep Imraan out of the dressing room!
