    And speaking of sticking Ethan Pinnock up front late on, hell why dont we stick Nick Townsend up front as well in the 90th minute, what can go wrong ?.
    I seem to recall a few years ago Winnie used to be "pushed" up front if we needed a goal

    Lyndsey and Fryers gave him a free header,

    It makes sense if you need a goal . John Terry used to do it more recently as he also knew where the back of the net was

    It brings about the question and any fan at any club can ask this... Should any player at a club be 'un-droppable' ?.
    I bet you haven,t seen him play live?
    Davis on his day is as good as owt I have seen in this league but he needs competition and Towns end needs a game or two in the 1st team to give him that.

    Could Davies be a possible shock departure in January ?
    Wayne Hennesey is apparently looking for a new club , Experienced Welsh International , around 30 yrs old ?

    His change of tactics did work perfectly for the goal, Ive no problem agreeing with that. But we were all as glum as hell at the time didnt you notice, when we were 0-1 behind again and a goal looked a million miles away yet again.
    No he just doing a difficult job pretty well considering the circumstances .

    We need a keeper to dominate his penalty area - Adam is a good shot stopper but doesn't command the 6-yard box! He's a big lad and should be doing so! If he can't, we need another keeper! I hope he starts to do so
