I'd give everyone a mug of espresso before every game. We were listless and ponderous in possession and the passing was way short of Halifax's on most occasions. They looked like they had been to a funeral not up for a play-off chasing game at all...

Paddy was decent at left back against Chester. I reckon I could've played right back.

Just what i was thinking. A quick winger would cause Paddy no end of trouble. I would love to see Paddy given a go in centre mid where he is supposed to be.

He should be playing centre mid, but ain't gonna happen this season as Hurst will pig-headedly stick with Kerr and Disley when they are fit.

One request would be for more robust, athletic and strong midfielders. They could support the strikers more.  As I said on another thread,  Pearson (no 5) for Halifax is the perfect example.  He chases everything.  Halifax fans rate Pearson as their best player - after Lee Gregory.

Mansfield were a physically team and they got promoted.

Paddy is the only player under contract for next season isn't he? Signed a 2 year deal last summer if I am correct. Agree though I think he's shown us he's a good player when he's had a chance albeit being played out of position in the left midfield role. Would be good to see him in his favoured central midfield role the next couple of games considering the Diz/Kerr partnership looks like it's lost the spark.


Paddy, Hannah and Pearson are the only players under contract for next year I think.

We've offered him a deal but he hasn't signed it yet I think.

So were Newport. It's a seductive theory - to think that you can't get promoted unless you have a few hard hitters (what Halifax fans called their midfield 'tanks'), especially when you think of these examples, but then you remember that York were promoted with a team more lightweight than ours. Mind you, their players could control, pass, move, cross, take corners etc.

Hang on.....don't we have half of their players now...?? What happened to them?
