Ian Holloway's

Peak this set-up with Norris tucked in, Shelley on a raiding overlap and Halmosi wide on the left. Capaldi behind him provided solid and lugubrious looking support. Halmosi was another well maned left winger... I mean, was it a pre-requisite? #pafc

Paul Sturrock's

With southpaw winger Phillips on the right and wide mid Hodges on the left. Connolly would bomb up the right as Buster cut in with a million spinaroonies. Left backs came and went.

Norris arriving as wide right mid offering best balance/combo and Connolly bombing on still. #pafc

Kevin Hodges'

Within large bouts of 4th tier mediocrity, peak was Chris Hargreaves an old school left winger with flowing locks, Barlow on the right. Full backs came and went... That's it, nothing much happened, apart from the FA Cup run of 99/00 which needed 6 games to get to the 4th round. #pafc

Neil Warnock's

Tended to rely mostly on full backs. Williams on the left and Patterson on the right. Leadbitter and Barlow were wide mids in the main, both lacking the pace and athleticism of those behind them so would sit more narrow. Solid, not especially spectacular, but did a job. #pafc

Peter Shilton's

Disciple of Clough unsurprisingly had a similar approach. Its peak had Dalton turning right backs inside out on the left, and a wide mid in Barlow or Skinner on the right with Patterson overlapping. In full cavalier gallop it was amazing, not remotely solid, but exciting. #pafc

At this point I have no clue what is happening. I know these names, where they prefer to play... So...

I'm guessing two straight lines and Oseni on his own like an island in the middle of the Pacific.

Shuffle, side step,
Pass, pass, launch,
Throw in,
Side step, shuffle,
Ah bugger. #pafc

iPlayer has this cracker - Horror Express, starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Telly Savalas guests as a Cossak.

A fossilised ape man thaws out and causes mayhem on a train. Guests include a Polish spin on Tsar Nicholas and Princess Alexandra with their own personal Rasputin in tow.

The Old Boys all starting today.

Total number of appearances is over 1,500 and a combined 100 years on this planet.

Not one of them born before 1990... #pafc

Let us never forget that curious period when players moved to Northampton Town in the summer.

Carlo Corazzin in '98
Chris Hargreaves in '00
Paul McGregor in '01

Honourable mention... Hamidou Tangara in '00. Does anyone recall him? Because I sure as heck don't! Perennial third choice... #pafc

I've heard we've lined up some genuine Janner stalwarts for the job;

Angela Rippon - an old-school winger.

George Passmore - wingback but no word if Gilbert will join him.

Gus Honeybun - midfield enforcer. Served a 12 match ban for headbutting a ref on their birthday. #pafc

It does when you go private for them as well 😬

I'm starting to feel like Captain Willard in Apocalypse Now

"I don't see any method... At all"

So let's all scrunch our eyes up nice and tight and believe really, really, really hard it will all work out.

Been listening to this bad boy - Innuendo by my boys Queen a fair amount again recently.

Because apart from say 4 of the 12 tracks being very skippable (at least to me), the rest either kick your ass, your brain or your heart.

The Grandville artwork is also stunning. #Queen #rock

Stick a fork in him, Cleverley is done. He has overseen 10 league defeats out of 15, can't even play for or fluke a draw. Continuing our "outthinking" crusade will mean this will be the cleverest descent into League Two ever recorded. Putting Joe Hatch into that was especially poor from him. #pafc

In a shot to nothing, this is what we produced. A new head coach is unlikely to make this fragile squad a strong force, but it's near impossible to argue Cleverley's presence in the dugout can continue any longer.

But do we trust the current structure to not repeat this error a 4th time? #pafc

Thought I'd give Radio Devon a go for the first half. Let the great Rik Mayall sum up what I've been listening to. #pafc

Ah Wycombe Wanderers. The team that most sticks out in my mind is the latter part of O'Neill's reign. Thanks to them I got to meet the legend Cyrille Regis for the first time.

Here he is scoring his second at Argyle in a 2-2. A lost piece of football culture, seeing these players move down. #pafc

I remember being at uni when I heard he'd applied. Thought "Why the hell would he be talking to us?"

He was the first manager that really built something in my time. Made a squad that was a powerful machine at that level, able to play but also so physical. That first stint was the best ride. #pafc

Is this potentially the longest "Vote of confidence" that's ever been written? Can't say I share their confidence Tom can improve things. #pafc

Ooohhhh this winds me right up!!!

Yes we do need to return to the fundamentals. The basics need to be competent to stop this mess...

I'm referring to not putting big chunks of text in all capitals! Difficult to get through a small paragraph. They manage to do it on his name though. #pafc
