I like the Defour and Cork partnership and think Defour is best playing deeper but at home only maybe it is worth playing him further forward to inject some creativity.

Re: Nahki Wells

There are less breaks in play for offsides without Gray and there is less arguing in the stands about whether he is any good or not. We are short of pace though which he did have but then we all knew that. Hopefully it will be addressed in Jan unless Wells is the answer.

The second half was a poor spectacle but we will have to win and draw ugly this season to get the

it can get very noisy in patches and it clearly lifts the team but I think the noise doesn't carry well around the ground. When a new stand is designed for Bob Lord or CFS they should bear this in mind and also opt for one tier stands.

Re: Defour

Defour was excellent today but should stay deep. Think him and Cork really compliment each other too. Ideally we need some one new at the front of midfield. I think Arfield is better than Hendrick there on current form. We could have made the subs to change to this.
