We just didn't look up for it from the moment we trudged out at the beginning in many areas. I have watched some Premiership football today and a major difference is that when they play it out from the back, there is often no pressure on them till they get to the halfway line. In our league, they are on you at the edge of the area.

DKE is I think more effective than Brindley, at least he gets forward quicker. We need Turner at the back - we have cried out for years for someone like him, now we have him there's no room in the team. We need someone in midfield who can make something happen - I like Doyle but he needs someone with him who is a bit different. We also need Wootton to be on his game all the time and someone alongside him - I would give Sam an opportunity of a start.

But what do I know!
We certainly do NOT need Turner at the back, far to slow for us, cost us in the playoff final and again at Halifax
