    He looked quality against Fleetwood for the little time he played. Don't want to moan if there's a genuine reason why he's not starting. If he's fit then it just shows what a plonker Johnson is...

    Didn't look interested when we didn't have the ball. I'm assuming away from home Johnson would rather go with the more hardworking Watkins.

    Fletcher looked quick, finished well with his header, rather surprised at him being on the bench

    Away from home, I can see why we've gone with Watkins. Good at holding up the ball, strong and quick himself, and of course he's our player.

    Fletcher looked good on the ball last week, I think he'd make a good impact player from the bench if need be, better than what Watkins would.

    Probably because the head coach doesn't have a clue

    Looked ok in the three or four touches that he had. Didn't seem interested in challenging big nasty centre backs in the air. Had ball plonked staight on his nodder for his goal by Hammil. May turn out to be a diamond, but lets not start wetting our knickers just yet eh! Oh and Watkins is our player int he.

    Ask those at the match, they can probably explain why. 0-2

    If we win today and the score stays the same... Last 8 League Games:

    Won 5
    Drawn 1
    Lost 2

    For 16
    Against 12

    Losses against 2 teams in the top 6. The draw against Sheffield United, currently 7th. I'd say that's a pretty good turnaround following 8 straight losses in the league.
