Trevor Francis?

The only different player Hodgson used in the starting line up from last season was Mitchell .
He could have used this system last season.

the backtracking on here makes me laugh...if only people could have a steady, not kneejerk, reasoned train of thought these idiotic threads would not be needed.

Spot on. Schlupp and Townsend spent a good chunk of last season injured.

I’ve only said Roy should go if we have a good new manager agreed coming in.

It’s a bit funny reading people getting carried away after 2 results when in reality we’ve got on the right side of Roy’s margins for now with barely any possession, taken our few chances, been gifted a penalty, to be taken twice. Roy is what he is. It goes alright with a bit of luck and then matches are hopeless after 20 mins. It just doesn’t get me interested much anymore. In time it will change. If anyone enjoys this apart from the goals then I don’t see how. But if he keeps us here for something better then fine. It’s when he inevitably doesn’t change during hopeless runs of losses people get frustrated.

I didn’t say that. We were on the right side of things. This is Roy’s strategy. Play out the season, take advantage of clubs who need a win and maybe get the breaks. Other times it’s game over after 20 mins as there’s nothing different going to happen. It isn’t gripping but needs must if the owners are how they are. At some point there will have to be a new manager and change.
