We're a bit politics heavy and a bit football light on here since Saturday. I know we've got plenty to worry about but let's balance it up.
Clarkey keeps tinkering to his detriment so who would your solid, go to, starting XI (of the players already on the books) be for the greater part of the season?

I would go for Mildenhall, Brown, Parkes, Lockyer, Mansell and Taylor.
The others need to improve imo.
What do you think LJG?

well thats the problem isn't it, the "solid" top half defence of last season seems to be lacking concentration this season and plan b defensively arent fit (trotman & turley)so there is little pressure on them or option for clarke but to change formation.
Until we settle on a 1st choice midfield and Brunt comes back to form and builds a partnership with taylor/white/gosling/monkhouse/harrison we are going to struggle.

I think this team needs a bit of confidence and things will improve.
We must get the core down the middle right first, sadly at the back McC and Parkes are not doing it. Sort them out and things will get better

Mildenhall and Brown are probably the only two players that I really trust and know can do their jobs.
Lockyer needs a set position, but is a player who I really admire and like.
Choose your team around those three I guess.

Leadbitter? Harsh to pick on one player but he is absolute garbage and that is being kind.

Leadbitter played reasonably first game and well when he came on at Barnet but have to admit he was terrible on Tuesday. From a defensive point of view we could play Mansell at RB where he has played a lot of his career but then we lose the one midfielder who at least holds his position. I think Leadbitter needs to be given another chance as we are only three games in. Personally because of the way our defence are playing i think DC should be getting them to pass the ball into the midfield quickly rather than passing it amongst themselves where we are giving the ball away too much and too cheaply.
Team for saturday for me would be (assuming Lockyer is fit)
Mildenhall
Leadbitter Lockyer Parkes Brown
Gosling Mansell (Capt) Monkhouse Martin
Taylor White (or new striker)
If Lockyer is not fit then play Trotman alongside Parkes.

Leadbitter was poor versus Barnet and awful on Saturday, but who else would you put there?! Sinclair being moved to full back was a shocking decision and I certainly wouldn't waste Lockyer there again (as against Grimsby)

What's the deal wit Olly C? Seems he's not progressing at all, poor at the end of last season and looks out of his depth at this level.
