No natural width going forward.

Lee Martin doesn't even make the squad ! and where has Lee Holmes gone ?

Assume Lee Martin is injured. If not, it's not a good sign that he's not in the squad.
Lee Holmes is injured, isn't he?

Holmes finished the game at Crawley, the last he played, I thought he was ill and expected him back by now.

So he's injured, ill, being rested, dropped or absent for personal reasons.

It seems that MT favours a very narrow setup...Teams have worked this out and they play with two wide players hugging the line and then they run at our less than pacy defenders

Real shame Ogbene is injured, I think he could have made a big difference recently as things had opened up for him to be selected.

Out on the tiles?

I think we have to assume that Holmes and Lee Martin are not fit.. they always make the squad when fit and we have named only six subs. Of the other wide players Ogbene is also injured and Sparkes is out on loan.

1 - 0 down.
