Wide players

I know I have said this before but Brews continuing ploy to play wide players on their less favoured foot continues to irk me. Cowie clearly favours his right - why even consider playing him on the left apart from short spells of interchange. Imrie very clearly favours the left and, although he defended well against Cellic looked more comfortable when he went back to the left. Vigurs likewise - although I notice he never puts Royster on the right. The only one who ever looks comfortable is Bazza but he hugs the line and is fed the ball and gives himself and others space.

I still feel that Cowie should be a la Bazza - or at least tried out in that role. And play the wide men in their favoured positions whilst allowing for a lesser degree of interchange.

Hairy ya muppet - Did you not notice that at Falkirk - and it happened at Hibs - that Imrie hugged the feckin touchline and Cowie did likewise. When they were defending - especially at Falkirk Duncan and McBain really struggled. We lost the middle of the park at falkirk and we werent doing much better at Hibs until we scored.

We looked at our most dangerous when Cowie got fed up and moved to the right - as in the second goal.

We tried to get at least ten men behind the ball at all times at Hibs - we defended full stop - but it paid dividend and if we had swopped the wide players it could have been even better.

Have i missed something or have Jim Henson productions got new characters?
