I guess the plan wasn’t to have both him and Ashworth on the bench until Morley didn’t travel, but it was such an odd substitution. Ashworth is streets ahead IMO. 

I think Ashworth has been relegated to 4th choice now, or possibly 3rd if Iredale is only considered for CB.

I don't think any of them are far ahead of the others.  Ogbeta has something going forward as shown by a couple of assists, he has a bit of the Ricky Gardeners about him, a lot of flair and unpredictability. 

Ashworth seems more solid and reliable, and has a goal in him, but plays the game at a slower pace.  Williams can throw the ball a long way and is the best at following up penalties that have been saved.

What gets me is Evatt goes on about how himself and Markham do due diligence on signing new players so is having  a total lack of bottle and unable to concentrate for a full game part of the process because the whole squad is culpable. 
Also what do they do in training ?

Kinell, he may not be able to run as fast as others, but from what I've seen he's a more rounded player, with a decent footballing brain. Him or Ogbeta for me.

I agree with every word.  And just my take on it, yes he plays at a slower pace, not a criticism, just style of play, like Santos.

True enough.

Like a finely tuned engine that needs its oil topping up.

We had no defenders.

Now we have and we can’t stop conceding.

Charles wasn't scoring and needed a rest anyway apparently. 

I accept we are now light up top but if you can keep a clean sheet you’re half way there.

We can’t.

It’s just one excuse after the other, justified by injuries. 

Winners find a way to win.

Ogbeta is 3rd of 3 for me

I can see us dropping to 4th over the next 2 games, certainly it’s difficult to see us going 2nd given the 2 tough upcoming games, if we don’t get the positive results in the next 2,might be better if we coast into the play offs and use the next 6 weeks to not rush anyone back, rest key players and a complete reset for the play offs.

Must be missing something as I thought if you was a so called professional footballer the minimum requirement is that you can pass a ball , cross a ball and tackle but hey ho you always no best ?
