Thanks for the comments. You make so...Qatar White,<br />Thanks for the comments. You make some interesting points. Snoddy had a hell of a lot of possession yesterday and caused Kettering problems every time he got the ball......his final delivery is not always on the button though. If he improves that aspect of his game he will be a top class player IMO. Kilkenny has done well in the centre of midfield since he's been given a chance and I think he will blossom there. The problem (let's not forget we are top of the league) is the balance in midfield. When we play with 3 centre mid fielders as we did yesterday it always looks a bit lopsided and restricts the options out wide. Interesting that Kettering kept their wide men wide and caused Crowe no little problem. Beckford is an a enigma. Frustrates the hell out of you for most of the game but still is in the right place at the right time to score plenty of goals. His achilles heal is his lack of ability with his back to goal, ie holding the ball up and first touch. that's why he plays better when Becchio is on the pitch and plays that role well. That's why I don't think he will go further than the championship? His goals are vital in getting us out of this league though IMO. Your right Howson is not skipper material but he was standing in for Bam Bam. His late run was fantastic and nearly won the game. the dilemma is he is competing for one of the centre mid berths with Doyle and Kilkenny.<br />As for playing the Salford Yanks, if we beat Kettering, bring it on.<br />MOTAndrew Butterwickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04901721084209057107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-91167796845366894782009-11-30T05:41:56.127+00:002009-11-30T05:41:56.127+00:00Hi MOT,
Just a Quick line to give my views of our ...Hi MOT,<br />Just a Quick line to give my views of our potential banana skin tie at Kettering, yes it was on live out here. We must go to the Jan sales for the following<br />a) Goalkeeper- to cover for higgs or be first choice.<br />b)Midfield-we need a general in there to dictate games.<br />c)Striker-Still cant make my mind up about Beckford, one thing i am certain about is i am fed up of watching him moaning all the time, and as i am lead to beleive you have also played football at a decent standard, players who keep moaning and groaning start to get on your preverbial TITS, and can cause unrest in the camp. Howson is a good 100% honest player, but not a skipper--he is too nice a guy. Personally i think we have to be careful in the Jan sales we dont loose Snoddy, people have to be looking at him, he put another good shift in yesterday.<br />Lastly top admiration for the faithful, shit weather, shit ground, top class support, i am LEEDS and seeing the support you give definetly make me proud of it.<br /><br />Regards Qatar Whites<br />P.S. Just been text with the cup draw, dont know if i am happy or sad, have to think about it and revert.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407535598015737655noreply@blogger.com
