I'm sure Grant's supposed to be an attacking midfielder whose best position is behind the strikers. Oswell is apparently a 'fox in the box'. Maybe if we used players in the positions they can actually play well in we wouldn't be bottom of division 5.
As for Hooper if he's not injured why is he still here ?

The club kills goalscorers. This season ex players Quigley 13, Rooney 11, Boden 9 and Fondop 8 have been scoring regularly. It has often been said that these players never fitted in with " our style of play".

Quigley is a classic example. When he was here you could see that he wanted the ball threaded to him so that he could run directly at the defence. Keats then insisted on playing his one dimension way of, pass forward, pass sideways and pass back.

So Barrow FC are doing something right this season - top of the league and their 2 leading goalscorers are Wrexhan rejects.

Watching the long Wrexham car crash to the end of this season is going to be like death with a 1000 cuts.

Can a miracle happen!. I think I may go to church tomorrow and start praying for the club.

3 to 4000 fans can see this but no manager in the last 3 years can. Beggars belief.
Wouldn't mind betting on the "midfield" at Eastleigh being the same as Saturday.

Where is Oswell??? Is he injured? Anyone?

If he isn't and is just being left out then this is another crazy decision.
He's not Ibrahimovic but he's far better suited to playing the striker role than Grant because, er, he's a striker. He's never played that badly and is yet another victim of this club killing a striker.
