I only said I was fat to make HTE feel better..... I told the truth about being in my 50's though. You're a nice chap, but regarding HTE a lard arse is a lard arse. No point trying to deny it. And he's a dickhead.

Personally I think we should stop the over lapping full backs, let the wingers get to the bye line. Simply when you get both fullback and winger on the edge of the oppositions penalty box, then they lose it and the opposition play the ball down that channel and then our defence / midfield get pulled across leaving a big hole in the middle. I also think Sinclair running all over the field is a bit naieve and he often leaves holes in the defence. Not to mention that for every pass forward there are 25 passes back and sideways. This of course keeps possession but slows the game down and allows the opposition to re group their defence. We always take 20 passes to do what the opposition do in 3. Personally I would put Mansell or Clarke with Lines with Sinclair on the bench.

It would be good to see if last season's Lins/Mansel combo worked better than Sincs running everywhere, but if the rumours are true we might never get to see that combo any time soon?

I see what you're saying, but in large have to disagree if I'm honest. You can't know for sure that our away form won't be the 2nd best in the league come May; it easily could be - we've only lost a couple of times in 20 odd away games. I also don't agree about the lack of "quality". IMO we've played better than the vast majority of our opponents in most of our games. We've often lost games deserving more and it's only poor finishing that has meant we've lost the game. That doesn't therefore mean the whole squad is weak; just that we need a more potent strikeforce. We are 4 points off a playoff spot and are currently midtable which doesn't IMO point to us "lacking quality all over". I honestly don't believe we will be in a relegation battle at any point this season. We'll survive by at lest 20 points IMO. So you are saying we will get 71 points this season? I will have a tenner against that Well my wager was that we'd avoid relegation - it was just my IMO that we'll do it comfortably. So the wager was to avoid relegation if you were interested? Not sure if that will end up being by 71 points (it could be), but might well be less than that if Dags and Yeovil etc continue their woeful season to date. We'll stay up Padstow, have faith ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

On the one hand there's people seriously trying to discuss serious tactics and loans and takeovers in a serious way, and on the other there's always Nobby and Baggins bantering away totally oblivious to the topic.
That's why I love Gaschat.

Are you seriously comparing the two considering how much money Holloway had at his disposal and calibre of player he had compared to what Darrel Clarke inherited and had to sign on a pittance? You may well get your wish Padstow, if only DC wanted your expert help! Then your personal crusade against the bloke would never started. Lifes to short to be bitter and twisted. Just comparing the home records ,league position and points gathered by the 2 sides,it makes scarey reading,regardless of who were in what side and what division.By the way our record for home losses is 14 Exactly, you are comparing so it makes a huge difference who was in that side then. And don't forget the healthy state of the club at the time. Financially at least .

ITK? No, just repeating rumours on here, if Mansell & Lines ever appear on the side again we'll know it was nonsense.

Ok - not heard there was an issue - I suppose even if there was a good manager would still get them to play together if in the best interests of the team - remember Cole & Sherringham apparently never spoke but what a partnership on the pitch !!

We'll stay up Padstow, have faith We sure will! I can reveal the main organisation behind the current bid for the club is in fact Pfizer and the amount they are pumping into us i assure you we'll never go down again! Our song after the take-over and henceforth shall be "We are going up! And WE ARE STAYING UP!"

The concern for is that it's usually a team home form success or failure is built on, not away form. We went down under JW/DC because we couldn't win one of our last half a dozen or so games. DC has to come up with some forumla soon to stop the rot at home, or NH might well be looking for a new manager as well as players come January. Will he fook that will cost him more money
