Corner routine where he backheeled was the best seen at Oakwell in a long time. I am not Devaneys biggest fan but I think he might have realised that he needs to work harder and have something different in his locker other than just kicking it past the player and running into him.
Agree with that if he shows same amount of application as against Wolves for rest of season, he'll keep his place on merit. his position tho, is one of few where we do have competition. I may be wrong, but sumat tells me Nardiello, once fit, will make an impact at this level.
the big difference is the team that played last night is only there 2nd or so game together, the 1st team play each week and you can predict who will come in for who if any injuries etc Devaney, Hassell, McPhail (when here), Richards, Colgan, Heckingbottom, and kay have all struggled when they first came but have turned it around and become key players. I know we are not the most patient bunch but give the lads a chance and i don't mean a sub apperance here and there but an actual run of games!!! Am not saying they are world beaters but think the level of criticism is a little harsh, and remember MK Dons were in our league last season to which we drew with them away and beat them at home (with not the best performance if i remember)
