Once he gets his head out of his bottom and shows passion for the team like some of our loan players have he will have my full support. Coasting at mo'
Not exactly a whipping boy but quite rightly getting criticised for the way he ahs been playing for the past few months.
Why should a player be criticised for playing badly? Why add to the lack of confidence he has at the moment. Compare this to Istvan Ferenczi, he was useless and in games did nothing time and time again apart from run around like a Chicken, but the fans still chanted his name when he came on The mindset of some Barnsley people is on occasions in the dark ages it seems. How on earth is he going to get back to his best when he knows the fans will be on his back? JCR was told to make the midfield a busy area and it is obviously not a position that suite him so why have a go at him. Fair do’s but he is currently been treated very unfairly. Even in his good form a few blokes behind me had a go at him for whatever reason he could.
JCR has gone from "hero to zero" in less than 12 months. This time last year he was our best player. Now some of the fans want to see the back of him. How fickle the world of football is!
He's finding football hard at the minute. Every footballer has this in there carer and it is the first dip hes had while been at oakwell. Hes not played for a while and wont be MATCH fit. He will come good again but the fans have got to support the little Jamaican. The facts are if you are a winger you will loose the ball from times. HE does sometimes loose the ball and the fans get on his back. In the first 15 minutes on Saturday he started the game well and got down the right and attacked. He was getting corners and good crosses in on his own. Him and hammil changed wings and he found it a bit harder but he nearly scored. This was from a good cross from hamill and he attacked the box well. The defender got in before him and cleared it for a corner. Barnsley then went to a 4-5-1 and he did not get the ball to feet has much has he would have wonted and this got him mad. When he did get the ball He was trying to do something magic with the ball and has hes out of form hes just not able to do the things he wont's. Hes still a very good player and he will come good.
I think it was the reaction to getting subbed.... the slow walk off the pitch when we were 2 down, that has upset many fans. But he should realise, he hasn't a divine right to a place in the starting XI. I think we will see what he's really made of. If he's got balls, he'll knuckle down and show MR that he has to in his plans. If not, he'll be wanting away in January.
