Who is going to be your main and no.2 kicker this season?

I ask as I am pricing up the players for this season's Fantasy League and don't want to do the wrong player an injustice by incorrectly valuing them.

Main kicker should be Tim Hartley, 2nd choice will be Scott Yates. Not that Hartley is any better than Yates, just that Hartley is probably more likely to play in the 17 than Yates - Not much in it though especially considering Hartley's injury record.

Fletcher not kicking anymore?

I was goin to add that if neither Hartley or Yates is on the pitch then Fletch would probably take over - what makes a bit more complicated is that even though Fletch is probably 3rd choice kicker, he's probably the most likely to be on the pitch.

I'm not helping really am I?

To give you a brief run down of what has happened this year:
Yates has kicked goals in the last 3 games. Before that it was Dodd. In the friendlies it was a mixture of Dodd and Hartley with Fletch kicking the odd one.

Despite Yates being on the pitch, Hartley took the one and only kick (and missed) against Barrow

Hopefully Hartley wont be near the starting 17 so i wouldnt have him as kicker. Yates or Fletcher will be kicker i imagine.

So in answer to the OP - no-one has a loving clue. Could be anyone of 4, between Yates, Hartley, Dodd or Fletcher.

Blast!

Ok, I'm going for Yates as first choice and Fletcher as second.

Thanks for your views.

If we could bring on a goalkicker purely for penalties then Tim Hartley would be a star !

Sadly he's always going to have to play when Yacca is injured.
