And yet we didn’t concede from open play yesterday, so one could argue the defensive set up is working. Unfortunately we can’t defend set pieces not one but two free headers for the first goal, followed by two free headers for the rest, weak defending by poor defenders is our problem. As for full backs people got on the back of Mellor and Taylor-Sinclair but these two are a massive downgrade on them, one thing I’ve learnt this season is the premier league U21 is no preparation for the grind of real league football.Altarnun_Green":mmz13sd1 said:
It's not the fault of youngsters who are given no direction or leadership on the pitch. And in the case of our full-backs, their squad numbers probably indicate what was expected of them this year.
The goalkeeper situation is yet another C**k up by Adams. Got rid of Luke. How we could do with his experience now. And failed to replace him.
There are times that he doesn’t command his 6 yard box that l would like to see a GK of his statue do. And yes his kicking can be poor.
However, his agility as a GK is phenomenal. He makes not just good saves, but outstanding saves. He made one against Wimbledon against Jervis that was just pure reaction.
Sounds like he had another very good game today. He is young and keepers do tend to get better with age. He will make mistakes but l think the guy has done well considering how many times that defence has changed in front of him.

Luke said he had a discussion with him and decided it was time to move on. He might of been told that he intended to get a premiership youngster in or xyz as first choice and that he would be used as second choice. Luke didn't want this so decided to move on whereas letheren might be happy with that situation

Not really because he knew he'd be #2 at Swindon. Unless he resigned himself to it when bettwer offers didn't materialise as expected
I don't know it's just that he said it was a mutual parting of the ways. As he has never said what the discussion was it's only people's interpretation on it at the time.

Luke was hardly the best kicker of the ball either. IIR during his first spell with us he was scouted several times by higher league clubs, but it was his kicking which let him down.
