Lets give Demster a chance ..... but I cannot understand why once again the vacant managerial post was not advertised
That wasn't his main tactic.... if you ever watched training you'd know that. He just knew that he didn't have the players to play football, so opted to play with wingers like meikle and Briscoe and a big target man like Rheady and play for second balls, which we were great at... see Hereford away. We did pass it about at times but not ever for the sake of it, the goal against Lincoln in the FA cup reply to put us against Liverpool was a great passing move. Cox was perfect for that league, we had great balance. I think its really harsh to say he was just a long ball merchant
