    I do like footballing skills but I think having someone in CM who could win most headers might advance the cause.

    Can’t place him, Cass.
    Does he have a physical presence?

    Will Evans in CM had to be tried.
    Okay. It did not work. So, let’s move on.
    I recently wrote that we need a commanding (Bish-style) in CM. That must now be viewed as an essential move in our bid to get promoted. There can be no delay. A point lost here and another there could wreck our entire season.
    Fishburn is progressing nicely but cannot lead a forward line with the current demands on him. An experienced loanee forward is therefore essential too.
    Delay is dangerous.

    We have now had a run of games in which the play has been increasingly unsatisfactory.
    Poor passing, an absence of players fighting to get on the end of long throws are just the tip of what I suspect might be an iceberg.
    It’s all very well saying “But we’re top of the league!” But if we carry on in this vein we could easily end October a good half dozen points behind top.

    I told Mrs Lesgeo at 2-45 that our first defeat was coming this afternoon.
    I never make predictions but the passing recently has been so poor against solid opposition …
    Go on Iron. Prove me wrong!

    Brogan subbed. Maybe he’s not the answer.

    Down at HT. Even with 7 changes – the dullness continues.
    ‘Poor and lackadaisical’ according to Ollie.

    We have seen Scales cover at RB during matches – and I often thought the same thing, WG. However, I’d be pretty reluctant to remove Barrows from the team.
    One niggling concern of mine is that I am unsure as to whether Roberts works to his best in this formation.

    I think that we are a player short, CBRP.
    I’m far from convinced that Scales and Roberts can play in the same midfield. For me, it throws the balance right out of kilter.
    Every regular on here probably knows that I was a great admirer of Bish: not only a pretty big guy but he brought a kind of order and control to CM which we currently lack. Clunan is a good player but is rather slight of build.
    Clearly, we can’t afford a player with all of Bishop’s attributes but there must be a player in NLN or NLS hewn out of a similar mould that we could chase down.
    Currently, this really is one of the smaller midfields I’ve seen over the last half century.

    At least 50% more wretched passes than in the Curzon game.
    We certainly did not deserve 3 points!

    Barrows beats Ogle in terms of effectiveness.

    In the 60s and 70s there was a diminutive player, who sadly died tragically young, called Trevor Hockey who played in CM for a multitude of clubs.
    He used to receive oodles of praise for running around the pitch a lot – especially when he played for the Blades.
    Work rate off the scale: effectiveness deeply limited.
    No disrespect to the departed but watching his achievements on the pitch – I was always profoundly baffled by the surfeit of positives he ‘earned’.
    Gotta say that, more than a few times, I’ve watched Ogle and had very similar feelings half a century apart.

    The downside, Rene, is that we have conceded a goal!
