Spot on. Width and pace is such a dangerous weapon as proved last year with Papa and Antonio. Didn't Duncan mention that Papa was still being lined up for a return ?
He's been right on most things so far so hope is is right this time.
The other thing Adkins needs to do and excuse the cliche, but he needs to hit the ground running or as now is the case sprinting. Another slow getting to know you routine will end any chance of auto-matic promotion.
Yes they do, theres always some pathetic excuse players hide behind these days. Usually its the manager,Chairman, tiredness, always someone else to blame.
To those who don't think pre season results are important. The writing was on the wall before the season started in the same way we all knew England were not up to it.
