well its certainly true that if Helveg makes the first team it will be a major departure from normal operating standards. Even if Worthington was considering him it would be only natural for him to shy away now, or risk a stream of similar stories in the local press. It is sad to see what little impact all of our new signings have made so far this year. Makes you think that maybe we should have stuck with what we had but invested everything in one striker who could score goals. Ultimately our inability to take half chances is what will doom us. We must start scoring and scoring first on Saturday and we must play either Mulryne or Safri as the midfield general to pass the ball to our team as opposed to the opposition. Every time you give it away you give them the opportunity to hurt you and we give it away alot.

neither is Hucks a leftwinger judging by his displays in the last couple of games. he needs to be returned to a more freewheeling role. The trick then is how does the shape of the rest of the team accomodate him. Mulryne must play - or at least someone who can pass the ball to a team mate - giving possession away cheaply is the kiss of death for us - it exposes all of our other weaknesses - and that is why Holt must sit for now.
