Not many positives in recent weeks, but Aimson is one.  It was fair to assume IE had just signed a stand in defender, but he looks to have something about him, composed and judging by his interview seems to have his head screwed on.  Looks a decent signing, with 4 centre backs at least we have one position we won't need to strengthen any time soon.

I might agree with that last statement if we weren't so porous.

Decent point but that there have been few goals that haven't been either shots that could/should have been saved, dead balls/penalties that may not have been awarded correctly, wrongly allowed goals (Oxford), tactical errors by IE (bringing everyone back for corners but not marking players on edge of box) and most tellingly the full back getting skinned, the CBs cant be blamed for that.  They haven't been faultless (Santos OG, Johnstone error v MK Dons etc) but I think without them we would have conceded even more.  And 1 conceded in away games is no disgrace, we've only lost 1 away game when conceding more than 1 (Plymouth).  Its the other end that's the problem, and the full backs.
