That sort of finish to the season has tended to cloud our reality genes and we therefore believe we can do it again...- RHB

Team selection
First of all it's not Sturrock's fault that his squad is crap given everything that happened during the summer but, having seen almost every game this season, my observations - purely on the football side - are: We should stick to 4:4:2 for the rest of the season so that our players know what...- mfurok

Malone AND Herd
Crossed my mind last night that the thought of playing both Malone (at left back) and johnny herd on the left side of midfield when his injury permits wouldn't be a bad idea.
