So hands up. Who wants to see Francis and Brown in from the off against Yeovil . Line up ideas ?

recent results say he is getting things right. feel them coming on against tiring defences might become the norm whilst we are still winning games. just would like them on a bit earlier thats all.

Introducing the pair late on against tired legs would appear to be logical but could it also be that Feaths was attempting to protect them from coming to harm earlier in the game? Any opposition coach watching the highlights could readily see the impact that the pair had and thus be weighing up his options of how to nullify them, the obvious way being to kick them up in the air. Another option would be to bring them on at different stages of the game.
The long term answer is of course to recruit a couple of more creative midfielders.

Campbell and Miley are fine at creating imo it's width that's lacking.

The worst case is Pools have a new manager in on Saturday who recalls Johnson and Walker to the starting 11...

Agreed, as I see it the 'Head of Football Operations' needs to do his level best to offload the aforementioned duo as soon as any opportunity arises.

they are so poor that even a swap deal for a couple not doing there best at another club would be ok. without that getting them off the books would release some money to get a [roper target man to play with reid as it seems oliver could be out long term.
