Hi guys,

Here's the deal I was told off last time for the 'I Got Bored' title as it didn't really explain anything. So instead I am going to use this as a link to my new Exeter City/Football based blog and everything I add I will list on here with regular updates.

Hopefully you'll find it interesting enough to read and please feel free to comment and bring me up on anything on the blog posts or on here or even pm me and I will do my best to reply.

Here are the links to the articles/posts so far and most of the new ones should be a little bit more digestible.

Midfield will line up like

---------------Noble------------------
-----Sercs-----------------Dunne----
---------------Bauza------------------

Rather than your


---------------Dunne------------------
-----Sercs-----------------Noble----
---------------Bauza------------------

because Dunne runs around crazily too much too be regarded as a holding player. He charges around so cant be reliant on staying in front of the back 4. Nobes can tackle pretty well for a player with really good technique as normally they cant! he can control the game from back there.

Great read though [y]

Hi Grecian wonder thanks for that I take your point but see dunne as a defensive ball winning midfielder with noble filling in behind when necessary. Tis always seems to play quite a fluid midfield with players swapping over so in many ways I actually agree with you. Will stand by mine for the above though :) guess well have to wait and see.

Also think Noble will be more dynamic next season as he continues to build fitness

Not a comparison Max just two unrelated facts about the third teams in the respective triangles that just so happen to have been mentioned (rightfully?) in the same sentance. [tap]

It seems like a relativly slow day really so here's the latest posts from for a little enetertainment.

Backing Tisdale from the Garden of England

Dissapointed I have only just stumbled upon this.
Very much enjoyed your tribute to Harley and the links attached; bought back some very good memories. Is there a link to your blog on twitter by chance?
