blueatheart Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Playoff game tomorrow, England play on Friday, the following Wednesday and Saturday before the World Cup kicks off. Then pre-season starts with Barrow away. Not really that boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeroyboy Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Surely there's more to life than OWTB? Leaving the premises shortly with my good lady for a amble along the Macclesfield Canal and lunch and a flagon at The Axe and Cleaver in Dunham Massey. Something I wouldn't be doing if Latics were playing, but a very agreeable alternative nonetheless. Cricket is a good cure for boredom - so I'm told.

It's like a throwback to the late 90's when we accepted non footballers such as Garnett, Hodgson and my name sake... Yeah, i mean he's so :censored: he helped keep a number of clean sheets in our 10 game unbeaten run, scored a couple and kept some of the best strikers in the league quiet, along with Wilson Do you have a higher opinion of Guy Branston than Adam Lockwood?? He's not the best but he isn't the worst - he defends, simple as that, which, last time i looked, is his job title Had we more money to attract ball-playing centre halves with pace and power then granted you'd have a point but he's done nothing wrong so far and I had my doubts like most when he first signed Edited May 27, 2014 by shefflatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a throwback to the late 90's when we accepted non footballers such as Garnett, Hodgson and my name sake... in fairness.. you didn't like tarkowski to start with, so what's your ideal centre half? somewhere in between the two would be perfect but they tend to be up in the premier league... which would you prefer, a tarky like centre half that concedes quite a few goals but classy on the ball or a lockwood type centre half that doesn't concede many at all and plays it simple?

Fruitygoo Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 i'll happily take lockwood at the back all next year - in no way is it a coincidence we kept more clean sheets when he came in....

If you were going to suggest your ideal centre back bearing no reference to our budget you may as well have said John Terry. The actual question he asked was....do you prefer a Tarky type who plays football but lets a few in or a Lockwood type who is more solid but keeps it simple?

rudemedic Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 TBF to Lee Sinnott I wouldn't be surprised if Lockwood is more expensive than Fitz Hall, when we signed Fitz Hall he came from non-league, and it was below the conference. IIRC him and Andrews who both came from Chesham were working as "actors" at the time. Fitz Hall also struggled to play much for Watford last season, and is currently out of contract, whilst he may be out of our price range, he may not be, especially if no team picks him up between now and the start of the season, as Watford released him at the end of last season and he didn't rejoin them until November.
