really? so Odejayi is our best striker then? Andy Johnson is the worst midfielder in the history of football? Luke steele is ****?
RE: if they were good enough to make a difference they'd be starting. nt They might not be good enough to start, but why not give them some experience for the last 20 minutes when we're down with three goals anyway.
I didnt say they were ****. i dont believe in bringing players on just for experience. play them to make an impact in the game and scoreline. obviously Davey thinks they won't.
that makes a mockery of the game. ohhh we've been tanked 3-0 why not have a run out becuase the scoreline doesn't matter anymore. NONSENSE!
which says a lot about Davey's ability to change a game doesnt it Butterfield was good enough to play for us at wembley last season in the FA cup semi final yet Davey suddenly doesn't think he's good enough for the third round. coulson has been scoring for fun in the reserves yet odejayi who has now had well over 60 attempts to prove himself still gets the nod
RE: that makes a mockery of the game. How else would we find out what these youngsters have to offer? Do you honestly think that reserve team football is going to prepare them for playing in the Championship. What better time to to try them out than in a game which is no longer important in the grander scheme of things but does still offer a higher than usual standard of play. Sorry to say it but if anyone is talking NONSENSE then I'm afraid it is you.
RE: then play them in the championship. Which is why they should have been brought on earlier, in a game that wont affect the league position.
RE: then play them in the championship. Well said. I for one cannot see any hope for players like Butterfield and Heslop making it at this level, having watched them in the juniors and reserves. Just my opinion...
RE: which says a lot about Davey's ability to change a game doesnt it Have you ever picked a positive out of a game?
