Love it to be a three at back as long as they stay at the back. Send Firino up for the corners but i want Toal and Johnston to concentrate on defending long balls and not thinking they are Hierro at his best

You have played that card in the past......The one saying everything a professional manager does is correct. It is clearly not or they would not get sacked so much. Only SS opinion counts and i am certainly in his camp. I t does not say i agree with everything he does. At the moment he is doing more right than wrong. Though some bad habits are repeated week in, week out

Nothing wrong with both the team and formationZog1 has picked it would be more solid than SS formation. I think like a growing number that SS sticking with two wingers and having only two in midfield is indeed holding us back We are ponderous and slow and SS has for me certainly got it wrong, but it matters not only SS can change that or this time next season he will go the same way as Evatt. I think sooner or later he will change it.

Not in the know one iota, but two keepers wanted away. Jones knew he was going but to be fair he tried every game he played he was not the same player pre injury Santos wanted off, Murphy,Matete would have known they would be returning to their parent clubs....Collins and Thomason would have been informed that the club was open to offers as we was for Gomes,Schon, Randall, Lolos and Mcatee.......Adoboyejo, Cogley, Forrester got shipped out for nominal fees rather than be released this Summer. Out of nearly 30 players he inherited only Sheehan and Conway have had new contracts since he came in

They won lge2 last season so have three or four decent players who carried a team of decent league two players to the title. Lincoln are the same with a few players who will do well in the Championship but it wont be enough to have them in the top half next season......Sterry and Molyneux would improve us fact

No he has been against it from day one.....On the outside it seems he inherited a top league one squad but half the squad wanted out. The last month we finished the season with four 17 year olds in the team because of injuries, players not available because they were protecting themselves for moves away etc. In the Summer the club re-invested in the off field management and SS/Harkin brought more money in than they shelled out. We then started the season with a mish mash of SS and Evatt players and injuries to SS main investments ie Dalby,Erhahon and Taylor. We then spluttered to Christmas again getting rid of four more Evatt signings. The players he brought in all had issues at their parent clubs some soon settled in some as yet have not worked. My only gripe with SS is that he does not seem to play to his strengths and is very predictable. We will get into the play-offs i have no doubt. Not sure we will win them but we will be having a mass clear out re-build what ever league we start next season.....Overall i think he has done ok, but i am only going to Judge him from next season.....Even though i think he can do better if he changes the system up and i do not mean tweaks in the last ten minutes when we are chasing the game.

I thought there Right back Sterry is decent. We was linked with him a few seasons back when he was in the National league. Also they have Molyneux who is as good as anyone we have out on the wing.

We have been found out just the same as two seasons ago. We are now easy to defend against and hit on the counter. SS has two months to work out plan B or we will go the same way as Evatt did.

The only midfielder in History to play behind a defensive midfielder

The team would be a lot better.....We are getting over ran when the opposition have the ball

The clowns put that many cycle lanes in Bolton he would be better going for the Tour De France Been hearing about this for the last ten years and not one piece of turf has been turned yet. While we are at it they have been promising that link road before The Reebok was built

George has played the whole season, Toal has missed a few with knocks and Internationals etc....Wrong players to have on the ball

He certainly crosses the ball better than Apter and Gale and with our best two wingers injured i would play him not Burstow wide right. Burstow and Dalby up top and forget about wingers until ACD is back. We need three minimum in midgield so A Toal does not have to come out with it and B we do not get over run. And a defence who do not cross the half way line........Broken record but everyone can see it.

We have been worked out.....Managers are allowing our defence the ball

Evatt team was predictable and easy to play against because it never changed week on week. We are now seeing this repeated with Schumacher team. It is easy to both defend against and is set up to hit on the counter attack. Teams are now all doing these same things. Allow our defence free reign to move forward unhindered especially central with both Toal and Johnston plodding past the half way line and then squandering possession. Our corners are where we get hit week in,week out with all our defence in the attacking half teams just knock it long into the channels. Doncaster last night had nobody in midfield when Toal had the ball they just man marked our forward players and give him free reign. When Doncaster had the ball attacking they just overloaded the midfield and ran straight through them. We are drawing too many because teams are setting up for exactly that

Yea we are thin on the ground...Guess Desmond will come on at some stage for Christie, but we are playing Russian roulette

Do not understand the bench with a lack of Defensive cover

Great utility player to have on the bench. SS has big calls to make this summer with Johnston, Dempsey and TuTu None have let us down but i would not be bothered if we moved on or give any of them a one year contract. Tough call either way

Both TuTu and Christie are out of contract in the summer. Up to SS to release or offer a new contract My views do not matter

No Evatt played wing backs ....Still same system he deploys currently [well for a little longer] at Blackpool

Cogley was a wing back and was ok at best.....Never going to fit into a flat four same as we are now seeing with TuTu who is better further forward

Yes he inherited a shit show, though talented players. Who thought the grass was greener elsewhere. Or who had got too comfortable. That showed this time last year when a few were already plotting to get away in the summer and a few more thinking about summer holidays We had no true full backs at the club only wing backs. SS has moved to a flat back four this season but having wing backs hampers us. Taylor and Christie were brought in during the summer but again they are not the answer. I think we certainly need a new left back to allow Conway to Push up and two quality right backs are our main priority come the summer

Have said it since August our full backs are not league one level......Conway is decent but he is not a left back Johnston is a centre back Go on to the right side we have been woeful for a number of years. Said it before Christmas and i will say it play-off week. Get Toal, Firino and Johnston in a back three and do not allow any of them to cross the half way line apart from Firino at corners

Repeat on to the next one

I like the look of that team
