Guest Donnie Darko Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 In the space of just over a year Tinman now has his team, lets compare the playoff final team to the most likely one to start next season:The Wilson teamgk: Phillipsrb: CareyLb: Hill (now Preston)Cb: Butler (now Blackpool)Cb: Coles RM: Rougier (now ?)LM: Woodman (now Mansfield?)CM: Doherty (now ?)CM: Tinman (now boss)CF: Robbo (now Swine)CF: Miller (now international)Subs: Murray (now rubbish), Goodfellow (now ?), Stowell (now Leicester), Wilkshire, ?.Tinman's probable team:GK: PhillipsRB: CareyLB: GolbourneCB: ColesCB: HeywoodLM: SmithRM: Anyinsah/Cotterill/MurrayCM: Russell/ScuseCM: Wilkshire/BrownCF: LitaCF: Stewart/BrookerSubs: one right mid, Fortune, 2 central mids and 1 from 4 strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy g Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 And the obvious difference is the strikers are now miles better.I'd prefer Brooker/Lita/Stweart to Miller/Peacock/Roberts any day !Midfield will be the decider though...Will Smith/Russell/Wilkshire/Brown be better than Brown/Doherty/Burnell/Wilkshire ?

Guest Rob Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Christ the thought of a team with Joe Burnell playing central midfield makes me cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I think Tinn's team would win that one quite handily. Far superior strikers, better service and similar defence. More legs in the middle of the park too.Interesting comparison though, our competition next season will be harder than it was in 03/04 I think.Nibor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stedge Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I've got an August 2003 squad photo on my locker at work(too lazy to change it) and i've been crossing off the players as they leave.As i was putting a large X on lee millers head this morning i realised their is only Woodman, Fortune, Phillips, Lita, Coles, Carey and Tommy left here, and lets be honest one or two of those might be gone by the start of the season. What a difference a couple of years make with over 2/3rds of Wilsons squad gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Midfield will be the decider though...Will Smith/Russell/Wilkshire/Brown be better than Brown/Doherty/Burnell/Wilkshire ?← Two of the names repeat so the question seems to be will Russell and Grant Smith be 'better' than Burnell and Doherty. More guile, better discipline, improved balance, plenty more goals - no contest surely. Stewart's a great signing but the much needed potential improvement in City's midfield could make the biggest difference next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest usarob Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 You are all forgetting about Orr ( and before you all start shouting ) nearly all his games last season where played alongside either Tinnion or Doherty and basically did a lot of their running to the detriment of his own game. I believe if given the opportunity with someone in midfield who has some legs he will prove all the knockers wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
