TheExile Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) Whilst I haven’t seen much of the Brentford lad he looked a bit slow/heavy footed for a pressing team. That’s purely based on FGR though. Edited January 9 by TheExile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 @TheExile That's exactly it. Couldn't think of the phrase first off but you're right. He comes off very flat footed. When Doyle collects the ball he's too far off for a start but doesn't close him down. He then just doesn't react when Doyle shifts feet. You can see him react almost after the shot is away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine questions Tee but when you were at Lincoln did you have to have a word with the local press over this sort of reporting or were you ever tasked with finding out who 'sources' were? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, the relationship forged by staff at the club with the local media was very positive. There were only a few leaks, because we were always quite transparent when appropriate. And it was a mutual understanding so, if there was anything, they’d ring and they’d largely respect things as we’d give them access when we could, as much as possible We only really had issues with the Sun (shocking I know!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I know we ended up with Hendricks because the Hayden deal fell through but are we sure it's us that's back in for him?
