Steve Lomas (who was a terrific club player for us) has been appointed the new reserve team manager/coach, and according to the WHU site, he has at least the following players available to play against Arsenal reserves and others; Kovac, Reid, Boa Morte, Barrera, Faubert, Hines, and Ilunga. Only a few weeks ago, these were the bulk of our first team! What a difference the new signings have made, and what they could have done if we'd had them earlier. This group are truly bench players, and actually aren't that bad, but they don't compare to the first stringers now.
What's interesting about the 3-2 win over Arsenal on Tuesday, is that the 7 above named players all played (that means 6 full internationals) against an Arsenal side of kids, none of whom has played in the first eleven, I don't believe! No wonder we're where we are in the league.We barely won this game!
