its not the first time i have thought this, things went astray like this from Lincoln away onwards,
chucking Noble, and two inexperienced players into the fray was a mistake, none of them have as the season proven to be worth their place, for the final run in. what we need is someone who could have commanded the team onfield, a Don Masson if you like, a captain that is a real leader, someone who can see mistakes and annul them
,it was no good treading water until O'Conner was fit.
and waiting for further instruction, when it was going wrong from the kick off.
we began the season with TEN players listed who were midfielders or were capable of playing there.
the Major mistake as the year went on was the shortage of Attacking forwards having to rely on our
the top goalscorer.....Jorge Grant a loan player, shouldn't our top goalscorer have been a Notts County player?.
Amiobi proved to be a past it, when it comes to 90 mins, and i can only think its the old pals act with Smith being let loose as superb sub, a position and title he ineffectively never commanded ,
was he supposed to be the last minute Captain that we so desperate needed?
another major effect on team and results......Yates another loan player leaving,
the difference in the team between two Saturdays Brentford Away, and Lincoln Away was astounding, with the Three rookies in we lost our way.
But all this could have been avoided, as i said Time and Again we needed on-field direction, and to me it was a crying Shame, that Nolan who registered as a player, did not intervene, A tactical self substitution after it started to go tits up in the first half, and even un-subbing himself at half time could have worked wonders on Saturday evening, not just in this game, by others, especially The embarrassing Swansea away game. i did feel sorry for the travelling fans.
