Then I think Pottsy should start the game, it might be kidology on the part of Mr Tisdale suggesting 3 centre backs,2 wingbacks,2 holding midfielders and 3 forwards in an opening game of the season away from home.However, Should he play this formation, then we need to use the space created and out score them,maybe even go with two wingers? Or is it a case of keeping it tight early on and have a go at them in the second half? Im still half thinking this is not the formation he'll end up putting out,we must attack Exeter though,fly at them and test the defence from the first minute.And should they be as bold as to start with the formation suggested,then we must beat them on the flanks,which can be done with Potts,Peyton,Senior and whalley.Id have Bob lawton in the middle of the park aswell with sedge.

Yea, I can just see it, "So where did you get this scout report from?"

"I got it of the Alty fans forum"

I'd say it would be the last scout report he'd file. Ever.

 So, Coburn and Little to play up front, Payton in net then....

like i said in a previous thread, whether exeter are playing this formation or not, we need the ability to switch things around, and we could do this with potts, lawton, sedge, whalley, peyton and senior, whatever midfield combination in used so hopefully, any mind tricks from exeter will backfire when we can change things around without having to make any subs!!!

yes, thats what im saying with whalley, val lawton, potts, sedge and senior, we can change things around
Sedge can play centre only
Robbie centre or middle
Val middle only
Senior right or left
Potts right
Whalley centre or left

To be honest, I thought you were right first time, emphasising that he can play in the middle but isn't any good on the right.

Thanks very much.  ;D. Also you missed out Peyton/Coo depending on which playes left back and also thornley who can play on either wing.

Exactly, just backs up my point even further, shows we've got more flexibility still, so we can change the game plan without making subs
