Joe's go: Is it time for Swindon Town to give Joe Snowdon a more attacking role as they bid to rediscover fluent best?

Right now, it feels like the best way to utilise the man’s talents is to unshackle him. Since the turn of the year, he has felt pinned to a position which does not give a proper outlet for his talents.

As Ian Holloway strives to find the right balance in his side during the League Two run-in, is there a case for giving Joe Snowdon a more prominent attacking role?

Holloway has been a compulsive tinkerer over the course of the campaign but, despite his best efforts and the best efforts of his players to adapt, for several weeks there has been a lack of rhythm to his team’s offensive play.

Could Snowdon operating in an advanced position help restore fluency?

Increasingly, Holloway looks to be edging towards using a back four, rather than a three. This forces Ollie Clarke into a central midfield role – which many, including these pages, have argued is essential if this promotion chase is going to be successful.
