I wondered the same – think it’s an error. I couldn’t find Sir DHW anywhere on the WWW.
Speaking of titled Ironistas, what’s Baron Botham doing with himself these days?

Rubbish.
How far will we fall?

Big guy held it up, won most of his headers, scored a nicely taken goal with his feet, good for a big guy and looks like he could ruffle a few feathers. Kid from Hull was ripped a new one by the best player on the pitch and so would O’Malley if he’d played. Fewster looked good when he came on, should start next game IMO, kid from PC looked a bit out of his depth but needs time to adjust, kid from Forest Green did not get long enough. Early days, stop being such a pessimist.

Any opinions / reviews of what you’ve seen so far of the new guys?

Elliot’s not a lone striker
Ferris is shite
Shields not seen enough of
Will Smith looks solid enough
Everton richards look solid enough
Leake is ok but not sure he’s an improvement on Daniel
Bunker is a good young player
Chapman is a definite improvement on Foster
Big Gez looks alright
Fewster has done a Lord Lucan

Elliott needs to learn when to pass and when to shoot,instead of just shooting.
Seems full of running and a bit of aggression about him though.

If you look at Elliot at his other clubs he’s seldom been played as a lone front man, he’s mobile, runs the channels well but you can tell he’s not got the attributes to be scrapping for the ball upfront on his own.

Not good enough with his back to goal and as mentioned above, his decision making when it comes to bringing other people into the game in terms of passing isn’t the best either.

I don’t see why Dean doesn’t play him with big Gez to give him that bit of help.
