Didn't go to tonight's game through work, and baby, commitments, and in the end, I feel very much one of the priviledged who managed to avoid what sounded like yet another defensive shambles undermining a fairly decent start.
Listening to Paul Clarke on the radio, as I have done many times before, it is becoming extremely apparent, at least to me, that his knowledge, understanding and reading of just about everything football related is pretty much second to none.
He obviously still has a passion for this club, and as I say, he pretty much calls just about every situation before they happen - he called tonight's game absolutely spot on!
Given how much of a whole hearted defender he was, and given how much sense he talks about our backline - he was openly critical about what we do during the week in training not being the right things to do - would it not be a good idea for Tilly to get him on board to start coaching our defenders how to defend?
Although it was a long time ago now, he did a superb job for us in a short space of time, and anyone who has as much knowledge and understanding og the game as he does, would surely be an asset to our club, especially in the defensive area?
It is obvious to everyone that our defence, or rather lack of it in terms of organisation, marking, communication, you name it, is undermining anything that is any good about our team, and there is not a cat in hells chance that we can possibly be successful whilst that continues.
If Tilly is not capable of sorting that area out, which I think most people would agree on the face of it, he isn't, then why not get someone in who knows what they're talking about and who might be able to rectify our problems?
