    Agreed re wiles. We might, at long last, have developed our own really good player. Touch wood.

    At Leeds I would keep vyner n mattock at fullback.
    stick Robertson alongside wood or ajayi at CB and play vaulkes, Palmer n wiles in the middle. Williams on the left. Forde on the right. Smudge uptop on his own...
    Keep it tight,
    we have plenty of options to change like for like if anyone tires (except CM)

    Didn't go, though Proctor the man of the match for me, on the grounds of getting a brace on his official comeback, and sounds as though he is a realistic attacking option. By reports, and those who have been, have been impressed by Wiles, but I'm not sure if he is ready to be a regular CM in the championship. Still think we need at least one for Central midfield, and a bit more defensive cover. We are stronger in attack than 2 seasons ago.

    Proctors not ready yet in my opinion. Two goals is giving you a false perspective. Hes as rusty as hell and half a stone over. But, hes on the road to recovery, and thats to be celebrated. Another half dozen reserve games and then we're talking...

    Half dozen reserve games?

    They hardly play, and when they do it’s basically a youth team standard.

    He won’t get fit that way.

    Well thanks to today he will have another Cup game to get in shape.

    I didn’t go but by sounds of what’s been said proctor Robertson and raggett still need some special care from warne (people keep saying they ran out of gas after 70 mins) second ajayi can play in midfield if he’s given midfield training.

    Yes an extra game as you say, but the reserve system is poor for getting players match fit.

    We need match situations where we can bring them on for the last 30mins or so, however I can’t see where we would ever be that comfortable.

    Did you actually go to the match,because that's not the way I saw it and your comments are uncalled for,it's encouragement he needs not things like rusty and overweight,which he certainly isn't,or are you on a wind-up.

    I am far from being an expert on football,but that team looked decent to me last night,the young lad Wiles does look a very good prospect,he never looked out of place at all,great to see Procter playing again,when him and Keiffer Moore played together,they were a right handful,so with the other two big lads we have got,i am sure they will cause a lot of problems for some teams,all the new signings did nothing wrong,in my opinion,yes they tiered a bit towards the end,but all in all,i came away very happy.
