Bowman is missing far too many chances however we are a better team with him in it.

A front two of Seymour and Jay (which is what some seem to want) would be a joke, they would get eaten alive by most league two centre backs.

Seymour may have a decent future however in the two games he has started he has been very ineffective.

What about the rest of the team ??

Lee Martin didn't play at Scunthorpe, we were poor and lost 3 - 1.

I'm not saying he's the best player in the world, I'm saying he isn't the only one to blame when we are losing, we won 4 - 0 last week, he didn't score yet I didn't hear much from you about him.
Last week Lee Martin did that much work it didn't matter if he scored or not. Creates space his movement is decent and his work rate is better than anyone in this league, that's what helps the team.

2-1 Tranmere, Tis might be looking over his shoulder.

My change would be playing Law further forward and dropping Lee Martin deeper, whenever Law seems to play in more of a forward role we generally seem to do well, he's probably our best finisher as well (of the players currently available).

That's because there wasn't a lot to say about him. You're on about his workrate, I think it's a little half hearted. He sidles up, half turned like a cat wanting to have a go at something it's not sure about, never really shutting the opponent down. You'll retort about the penalty but that was down to Law doing what Martin doesnt..... shutting players down and putting a foot in.
