    County turn back the clocks with a classic 2-3-5 formation

    Two full backs, one central defender flanked by two wing backs, five midfield players, nobody up front

    I’m not a supporter of this fannying around at the back with the passing to the goalkeeper. And it was no surprise to see another defensive error punished.

    So time to make significant changes at the back starting by getting Byrne and Wright in the back three flanked by Knoyle and Touray.

    Not sure about midfield as I don’t know where we are with respect to injuries with midfield players, but Johnson needs to be rested. He is going to be a good one in time, but at the moment he isn’t ready for League Two. If fit maybe Croasdale, Collar and Sarcevic in the middle with Olaofe and Barry the freedom to float around up top.

    No point playing Southam-Hales or Rydel as wingers as they have nobody to cross too

    As for highly rated Bradford …… well they had two of the slowest and un-mobile centre backs that I’ve seen in a long time.

    They played a right footed player as a left sided wing back (just to prove Nik wrong)

    And what of Andy Cook the Bradford talisman striker who wobbled out of the players tunnel looking as if he’d been on a six week bender in Benidorm. Not seen a beer belly that big on EP for some time.
