    How does he keep getting a game?
    Both witty and serious answers would be appreciated. In fact, I would LOVE someone (not you Philip) to prove his value to us, give me a positive reason for his inclusion.
    A lad I used to work with said to me once -
    "he doesnt even look like he wants to play.. he mopes about in slow-mo, and even when behind in a game he wont rush to take throws.. and he's first down the tunnel every game"
    My friend is a big fan, as you can tell. My summary of Jay would be less complimentary. Although he did play a great thru ball once... for Millwall

    Is it because of those "photos" he has in a safe?

    I'm not a big fan of slating our own players, but I have to agree here.
    Why are we playing defenders in midfield, when we have a liability defender in defence. The mistake count is off the scale. Just get Mc Nulty or Goldbourne at LB and give proper midfielders a game in midfield.

    I thought he did ok on Tuesday. He was given the ball on numerous occasions and there was no one available to take a pass even though he held up the ball and waited for some movement. I haven't been today but are you blaming him for the loss?
    I don't think the left back position is causing the problem.
    Having said that, he wouldn't be my fist choice

    In a 'all time worst BFC team' Machiavelli would be one of the first names on the team sheet.

    Nope, the competition is stiff - I've had to overlook the likes of Doug O'Connor, Glyn Riley. Then there's Brian 'Man Mountain' Mahoney! The list goes on!
