And.... just to show that Sky don't have a bias against us in terms of 'false highlights':

Is the glass half full or half empty? Mmmm? hard to say - but it does look like there's room for more beer!

A balanced view of the game from Sky unlike Saturday as was pointed out by numerous fans last night who went to the match and confirmed how that particular video was not a true representation of the game.

I thought Adam Campbell played very well last night and deserves a run of games.

I thought he played well. Unfortunately Wildig picked up a knock and that meant Adam moved inside and did much better IMO. I reckon the middle of the park is where he could be most effective for us rather than out wide.

Problem for me with Adam moving to midfield is that in my opinion he's too small to be combative when it gets physical.

He's got the skill, no problem, but is that enough for a midfielder in league 2 :?:

I recollect someone saying exactly this on a post when he first arrived.

I don't really get what height has to do with it. I've seen more than a few tall lads be bullied in midfield by those who are smarter in how they use their physique. I seem to remember a certain Garry Hunter doing alright in a pretty rough and tumble Conference...

I reckon if he puts his mind to it he can not only get stuck in physically but also use his head to out-smart anyone trying to bully him in midfield.

From my observation of our first 5 home matches (not made an away trip yet) is how much more of a physical presence we have now.

Against Luton we had a back 4 where all were over 6 feet tall. A team like Luton would have (and did) bully us last season.

The ultimate bullying tests will be when we play Wycombe and Mansfield. If we can stand up to their tricks and pushes and pulls then we are doing ok.

Finally I hope we can sign Max Muller on a permanent basis come January.

The Muller and Old partnership is excellent and we need to keep it for the full season. It's a shame that Muller is so good as he's hogging the limelight and we're not noticing how good Old is too! Whilst Muller is on a different level, Old is also one of the best CB's we've had in the past few years.

Wonder if Max will play v his parent club Wycombe and if so give a superb performance that results in him going back in January.

No he can't play against Wycombe.

They said he can play in the Check a trade trophy. Not sure about the FA Cup.
