    For me it is not about the formation of the defence. In fact whichever formation we have used on the whole it has never been a raving success as we have conceded too many silly goals. I believe the major change is that in the last 2 games we have a midfield that is competitive and can mount positive attacking moves. Through this major change we are far more likely to score goals and break up opponents attacking moves. Hope we can continue with Powell, Tabiner, and White.

    Tuesdays game with Stockport will possibly show whether we are a genuine promotion contender.

    agree with you about the midfield, the three of them all seem to be on the same wavelength.

    My main point regarding the formation is that because we are aren't playing the same formation all the time, the opposition don't know how to set their team up to counteract/beat us.

    Also agree with you regarding Tuesday to show just how good this 'squad' is.

    I imagine Thomas will be back in the side as soon as he is fit. Quite rightly too. He is a bit of insurance for the defence and whilst result suggest we haven't missed him, Lukcour is right in that we have conceded a number of soft goals and I think Thomas may help reduce this.
