Every move Guiseley made went through him. Okay, you could argue that it was all very pretty, very neat, but didn't hurt Lincoln too often, but I couldn't help thinking that's the kind of player we are desperately short of. An engine room. None of our midfielders look like they want the ball.

I said last season to a few that I would love to see him at Barrow. How come us fans can see quality and skill, but managers don't.

Possibly even ARH in place of Lacey?

It sounded a good save on the radio! Deasy showed deft ball control for a keeper in one of his saves also well captured ;) http://static.wixstatic.com/media/346ba ... 00_png_srb
Edmo looks clueless on the touchline

Yep, people definitely pumped up to massive on downism meter. Too much pre- season hype.Too many heads in the clouds. Will finish a comfortable top 10 once the goals start flying in for us.I don't believe for a second that there is a majority wanting DE out. And i don't believe for a second that we are a bad team. :skill:
Seasons to be cheerful.Part 16 3/4 :skill:

As a fan i hope you are right,but the fans didn`t create the hype!,i satand on the popular side and the people around me think otherwise about edmo`s tactics,team selection,substitutions and lack of quality signings!

As for the goals we have played 14 games the goals haven`t been flowing yet (down to edmo to be brave play an attacking formation,right players playing)then we might see some goals.

Even allowing for the fact that he is a mate of Edmo, I thought the Alty manager's view of our performance was quite complimentary.
