And I think in essence there you have it Dickie .. Midfield .. Which for me is where a game of football begins and ends .. We have so Painfully NOT Dominated our midfield for years ~ Get that right & you could employ any number of systems changing it as the game progresses .. which leads me to an extra point ..
Are there any teams and managers worth their salt who stick rigidly to one formation and or system throughout the entire game .. ?
you have to have the legs for the system..
roberts/rhodes/johnson ??????? thats a third who dont have the legs..
For me it would be more of a 3-5-2 if we tried anything like this.
Bennett
Clarke
McCombe
Morrison
Hunt
Arfield
Johnson
Gobern
Ward
Rhodes
Lee
Pack the midfield and attack down the flanks, getting balls into the box as much as possible for the strikers to attck.
I wondered how long it would be before someone suggested this.
The reason the 343 worked so well for Wigan is because to a man everyone of them did the job they were told to do and stuck to it.
This doesn't happen at Town and on a regular occurance.
How many times have we been told or seen a man not doing his job correctly and it's ended up being a goal for the opposition.
If we could stick to the job in hand then we wouldn't have thrown all those leads away this season.
Wow cas you just give me a hard on, when i read your team, am up for that formation, right am of to find a tissue ✔
Cas, good line up that, except I'd take Ward out and put Novak in...I'd also take Gobern out and put anyone else but him in there...or just play with 10 men....
There is also a formation 3-2-4-1, which is interesting...
Bennett
Clarke
McCombe
Morrison
Miller
Woods
Hunt
Johnson
Arfield
Novak
Rhodes
because you have 2 sat in front of defence, your middle 4 are higher up the field, so Rhodes actually gets much more support than under 4-3-3 or 4-4-2..
If you're playing without full backs as such, the 2 deep midfielders are perfect, so when defending we are 5-4-1 and when attacking it's 3-2-5...
Yes yes, we go for that as well then jacko fock it. ✔
A tell you what, wi all these different formations we will win the lg never mind playoffs └(^o^)┘└(^o^)┘└(^o^)┘└(^o^)┘

Hey Jacko, ne'er mind Darn_ I'd like to see the Captain Grammarise that .. ..
Indeed...anyway, my 2nd team...Chelsea ...on box and primed for 3-1 win against barca rent boys.....curry nearly ready, and some beers in the fridge...Good life eh.....blue is the colour...
It's ok for some drinking every night like you and boots, some of us work ya know, I might as well be on dole as well if all you do is stuff ya fat face wi curry an beer ever fockin day ⊙﹏⊙
Boots…
Search as I might, I can find no such word as ‘grammarise’.
Of course, your unruly use of capital letters means that it is difficult for the reader to distinguish between common and proper nouns.
If you are in fact referring to a proper noun, then someone by the name of Crystal Grammarise came 22nd in a time of 22 minutes 31 seconds, in the Dunlop 5K Run For Charity at Tonawanda, Erie County, New York, September 17, 2010.
What that has to do with the price of coal, one can only speculate!
Here’s one for you…
This sentance has three erors.
he's phoning a friend................
I bet it's a long-distance call!
Hotcah, hotcha, hotcha!
Ha ha ha Brilliant Cpn .. There's something going on in thy head which sets alarm bells a ringing in mine for to be absolutely Frank W Three is precisely the last sentence I served .. .. Uncanny or what What ..
Boots…
Don’t worry; I’m not going to read your mind. I’ll wait until they make it into a film!
Many moons ago, when I was footloose and fiancée free, I very nearly had a telepathic girlfriend… but she left me before we even met!
I was in Whitby stood outside Gypsy Rose Lee's Fortune Telling Booth...She said "Are you coming in love ", to which i replied, well if you don't know, then no I'm not...
Capitan .. The word 'grammarise' is growing on me and does rather nicely encapsulate the question I was asking of you .. ..
I like to lead occasionally and wonder (as a man of letters) where one starts to propose a new word be introduced into our language .. ?
Surely you'd agree with me its as meaningful as 'Hotcah' .. ? .. ..
Boots...
You can propose until you’re mauve in the mush, but that won’t do any good. The answer is usage.
Words that are widely used get into dictionaries. They can be regarded as ungrammatical, vulgar, unnecessary, racist, nonsensical, or ugly. Dictionaries aren't there to tell us how we should use words; they are there to show us how words are used, and if a word is used, it's likely to go in. But the question of frequency is not a simple one, and dictionaries have different standards.
“Hotcha”, does actually appear in some dictionaries, as a slang expression, dating from the early 1930s. It is an interjection, as are Zowie! Strewth!, and Caramba! The latter was used by Mexican bandits in popular comics of my childhood.
If you search your 606 archives, you will find I have already explained that it was a regular expression of one of my favourite comedians, the great Arthur Lucan, alias Old Mother Riley. It is similar to “Wocka! Wocka! Wocka!” used by Fozzie Bear... another of my heroes!
Some summers past, when I was a paid educator, the going rate was around £18.00 per hour. Allowing for inflation, you are running up quite a bill! To what address do I send my statement of indebtedness?
Anybody who has Fozzie bear as a hero is sound. I drink out of a mug with his (very faded) fizzog staring at me with his thumbs up!
FUNNEEE!
