I see Banzo's trying to make sure he keeps his starting slot for Saturday...

Hopefully Archie doesn't get it and they give it to Gary Locke or Mixu - we all know about the longstanding Manager of the Month curse

Well done to the manager and yet again interesting to see that the usual faces that call for his head at 16.50 on a Saturday,after every defeat, have crawled back into their bunkers over the last few weeks. Do not fear, sadly they will be back at our next reversal in fortunes!

What's he changed? Genuine question from an exiled fan.

 

I'm also exiled, but somebody on here suggested one noticeable change of late is less reliance on wing players trying to get to the bye line and send in a cross, a tactic that was giving almost zero returns earlier in the season partly because there was usually only one outnumbered striker there. Instead there seems to be much more direct running towards the goal in and around the inside channels, with more players showing more movement in and around the penalty box. The number of different scorers in recent weeks seems to support this.

See the story is mentioned on their own Rumours page. They do seem to find it a problem to distinguish rumours from fact. A lot of stuff mentioned there is just abbreviated mentions of stories reported on the same site as having happened. Guess they don't hear many real rumours.

 

That said, well done to Archie ... and well done to him saying he thought Tommy Wright should have gotten it (after all his team is in the top six) - I think that shows real class.
