It's purely guess work based on opportunities that are out there, but if correct, Southern Prem which is 3 leagues down from league two. This will be a step up from AFC Mansfield.
Back to Banbury then?

Decent enough until they scored, they have bossed it since. Sordel looks a good pick up but will need games.
More action in the dugout than in their area.
Cold.

Buchs against a rapid winger?  I know, I know.  But who else other than Turnbull could we put a LWB that can defend? Hopefully Pierre will play the left side of the three and can bail him out.

Pitch is fine according to the update, shame as my back is buggered from football on Monday and sitting in the cold for a couple of hours won't do it any good!
Dealing with Eisa and Roberts will sure be interesting, Buchs surely must get the start on the left?

Is Sordell fit to start? How do we shoehorn all the loans in? Are JJ/Foley/McWilliams ready yet?
We'll play 3-5-2 as it seems we are stuck with it:
Cornell
J Williams Goode Pierre
Facey Buchs
Foley Elsnik Turnbull
Bridge
Sordell
Always fun playing the starting eleven lottery.

As much as I hate to admit it, this post pretty much hits the nail on the head about our football club at the moment.
Sad thing is, is there really anything that we can do to change it?

I for one cannot wait until this window is over, and we see what we are left with to try and keep us up.
If Pierre/Turnbull/Williams go and we don't replace them with someone experienced (ie not a loan player who hasn't played league football) then I really fear for us.
We do need a big man up top, playing hoofball to Morias and Hoskins will never work. Junior can hold the ball up well if it is played into him but will never beat a big centre half in the air. Sammy has a pretty decent leap for a little fella, but the same applies.
Williams over Ibhere all day long for me, his work rate is far superior (having seen a younger Jabo playing for MK Dons) and he certainly will score more.

That was downright diabolical today.
What happened to us second half I will never know, although the first half dross was hidden under a goal and osme decent chances (which we didn't take).
I don't understand the subs today, they made no sense at all to me. Hoskins had gotten plenty of opportunities but he is never going to score is he? Morias is probably our best finisher and we end the game with Powell and Williams upfront. I thought Facey was having a decent enough game before coming off, Hoskins is not a RWB and it showed.
Joe Powell looked woefully lightweight at this level, and poor Jay Williams (who I thought did well when the ball was on the ground) was bullied by much bigger, physical forwards and Curle hung him out to dry. We could have quite easily moved Turnbull back and put Williams into the middle.
I sure hope Foley is fit soon, or we are done.

Awful but we are winning.
Bridge, Facey and Elsnik playing well, plus Ash has been decent too.
Sammy doing his usual and could have had four, Junior doing well when we get him the ball but it is not often enough.
Powell looks very lightweight, hope he comes good. Luckily, they are shocking.
There for the taking this one.

can we just stop putting square pegs in round holes - i think CW was the only one in recent times who got the basics right and that seemed to work
Who is in the wrong position for you then?
