Against Halifax first 15 minutes we were all over them go a goal up take our foot off the gas and let them back in the game, it's happened in many games we should of won comfortably but ended up dropping points, the forward line come in for a lot of criticism for not scoring enough, but it's so bleeding obvious our midfield isn't good enough. It's that poor it sometimes makes Wedgebury look better than he is, yes he works his socks off winning the ball back but he couldn't pass wind & most of the time gives possesion away, Rutherford is another weak link, he's like a sidewinder. Sideways backwards sideways like an inferior Ray Wilkin, until we stop being scared to get in the opposition faces this will continue to happen dropping points, we stand off players letting them come forward Wedgebury is one who doesn't do this to be fair. Our lack of creativity in midfield is a particular weakness as is our lack of goals from midfield because none of them get forward enough. Now I keep reading Wright should be playing, but he is still a bit raw and his passing ability is equal to Wedgebury, difference is he is young time to improve, but with no reserve side he won't be match fit, what this side lacks is a ball playing creative midfielder who can open up a defence with a pass a Fowler type.

But whoever plays until we stop switching off when a goal up instead of going for more goals this will continue to happen.
