I didn't watch it, but I'm inclined to agree in a general sense. If he's not a LWB, what is he? I thought he had a decent game, but he wasn't tested defensively (unsurprisingly because of the level of the opposition) and I do still think he's more of a winger than a wing back. However, in the 3-5-2 formation that Duff prefers to use, the wing-backs have to be attacking players with some ability to defend. I thing Headley can do this, but I think a naturally left sided centre-back beside him would be helpful. Yeah, I'd agree with you on that.

Biggest concern for me is Nicholls not being involved again, is he on his way? Saving him for a proper game. He'll probably start at Harrogate unless we are selling him. I’m sure I heard that Duff knows what Nicholls is capable off but he wants to see what the others are like

No allowance on here for dyslexia? I think I have a mild form of dyslexia, albeit never diagnosed. Besides, neither post was said in a particular snotty way, whilst I wouldn't have even brought it up if it wasn't for context. You can't say anything. I think I'll go back to reading as I really can't be arsed with the daft debates you get in. Note I was not having a go at anyone. I am dyslexic and I am happy that the school teachers amongst the DATM contributors have in the main given up criticising the english some put on the board. I will return to my daft debates.

I think his name was Phil Babb , he was a really nice guy, he used to join in our kickabouts in Mirfield park many years ago. I think Bradford City were in the 4th division at that time, but Babbs feet were soooo quick. You think? Have I entered a twilight zone or something hahah. Phil Babb was an established Prem defender throughout all of the 90s, for Coventry and Liverpool. Thought the same thing! Was a regular part of the Republic of Ireland team in the USA 94 World Cup as well, not exactly an unknown quantity, not to anyone over the age of 40 anyway!

I’m sure a commentator said: ‘there’s Babb, cleaning up on the penalty spot’ during USA ‘94.

You must have been watching a different game to me if you thought Headley was poor. I think he is made for that LWB position. Attacking wise he is very good, got into good positions and was always threatening. Didn't see him do much wrong at all. I didn't watch it, but I'm inclined to agree in a general sense. If he's not a LWB, what is he? …he’s “not really good enough”

Town will be the 1st pre season game for Harrogate who have also lined up L33ds, Sheff Utd, Lincoln & Middlesboro to follow at home (one programme @£5 will cover all five matches).........We seem to be struggling to find any team to visit JSS.

Liked Iorpenda too.. .its going to be difficult to get into that midfield, he might be relying on injury or suspension, but would have no qualms about him starting a League 1 game. Is it? A 3 man centre of midfield, Kasumu, Evans and Kane are probably the starting 3 if everyone is available, and Hogg is the natural cover for Kasumu, but Kane and Evans aren't going to play every minute of every game in a 51 match season. I don't think you'd expect him to be a first team regular, but dipping in and out of the side seems a reasonable aim. Depends who else we sign but I expect he'll get a fair few minutes this season. We’ve got the Papa Johns Trophy, or whatever it’s called. A lot of games in this division and I could well see Iorpenda starting in some of those cup games. An injury or two and we’re going to need backup as well, so I’d imagine hell get plenty of minutes this season. Looking forward to watching him.

After all the fuss that was made over Warnocks friendlies last year we will get some decent teams to play before the season starts.

That's a thought, Millwall at home?.......No, just looked the Lions play Saints at home 3rd August.

He's going to struggle to get a regular League 1 start barring injuries etc, but I don't mind if he does, he looks plenty capable.

It was to do with those further up the thread who seemed determined to have a go at the club for taking time to announce the opponents and claiming they'd be pub teams.
