When as reasonable a fan as you says that Pooch I fear it really does reflect opinions held more strongly elsewhere by far less reasonable men .......... I fear for Danny because this division contains NO team which is obviously worse than us. The positive side of the coin is that there is not an unbridgeable gap between us and even the top teams. Change is possible, but we can't keep hanging on and hoping Ched back on the field will solve all our problems. To thrive you need a stable element, like the manager, or even a very-together set of players. Change CAN enliven everything, but when it descends into instability, as at Orient, you never know how or when you'll pull out of the tailspin. Stability all too easily becomes habit, just as instability becomes chaos.
Me? I would out Liddle and I really would stick Evatt just in front of the back four and tell him it isn't his running I want, it is everything he has learnt about the game in a career of almost 20 years. If I were Danny I'd also be considering ditching Morgan and making the Hump my sidekick. But then I'd be bringing Raglan back at Christmas and having a word with Anderson to establish where he sees his future - if it appeared still to be the dog's chance of Burnley he'd be out of the club quickly. And I've still big doubts about Wilkinson, was his burst of goals a freak in a so-far barren career?
Maybe we'll beat Scunny. That will give Danny time, but he needs to be seen using it or it'll become a rope to hang him. I don't feel he is really a man of dramatic action. He was a solid, dependable workaholic on the pitch who was a very good player lacking any obvious weakness (other than his height!) I think that is the man. I fear for a start he'll stick by Liddle who appears to be unaware of the debt he owes a decent man. You'd think he'd run through a brick wall for Danny Wilson.
