Wright - " A miss directed header" - Get used to it folks. It's a long season.

He'll be angry now. Here comes the fauls

 

Still, at least he's not been sent off yet

 

yet

 

Thanks for the mail Alex.

That's my lads name BTW. Well Alexander anyway.

He though thinks his name is Jesus Christ! or Goddammit!

 

Good choice

Can't say I do it justice though

 

As an out and out striker he was the best of the bunch today

Played really well</p>

 

Worked hard tonight and deserves better than to be the butt of pisstaking from people who didn't see the game.

 

Potentially or really?

 

True, I didn't see the game. I'm also prepared to give him a chance next season. But from what I saw last year, and from what was said on tonight (albeit poor) commentary, he'll struggle next year.
Needs to contribute more than sweat and good intentions.

 

There is something there Dave, he works really hard and unsettles defenders.

What he needs is a goal or two, he's obviously low on confidence but I have a feeling that if he gets going we might just have a player.

What won't help is people getting on his back, that's the last thing he needs to boost his confidence.

 

Look!

Strikers are measured on one thing...

even armchair fans can work this one out.


if he sorts that bit out, fine. but taking his time inti

 

RE: Look!

I thought he played ok tonight - I think he will make a usefull contribution this season if given a chance

 

your comment isn't what I was getting at...

Basically, I don't disagree with your comment, because I agree that he can be usefull, put him self about etc.

but when all is said and done, he is supposed to be a striker, and striking isn't what he is achieving.

its nice to run around looking nice playing good football etc, thats the bonus bit, but I remember a saying once, that we don't hear to much of now...

"look in 't green'un"

unfortunately, he isn't hitting the onion bag, but I am willing to let him have a bash, but we are at a point where we can't have the luxury of waiting half the season for him to explode, by then we may have too much to catch up on.

 

problem is

Richards doesnt look like scoring and neither does paul hayes.</p>

 

yes exactly mate!

and everyone just blames Wright its doing my head in. Why do we always have one player to pick on?

 

RE: yes exactly mate!

He looked to be the only striker tonight that was ever going to score and in fact was probably about to when he was brought down in the box</p>

If Emile Heskey is worth £5.5m then Tommy Wright deserves a fair chance</p>

 

RE: your comment isn't what I was getting at...

Whilst I agree that strikers should score goals - and are judged by the number of goals that they get - we did well last season without any of the strikers having a prolific score rate. They nevertheless contributed to the overall team effort - and I feel that Hayes, Richards and Wright will do so again this season. Undoubtedly a new stiker who can get 15 plus goals as well will considerably help our cause. However I feel that all the strikers that we have will make a contribution this season given the chance

 

ok!

Blame them all, they are all **** strikers...

That Better????

 

RE: ok!

we need a goal scorer nothing wrong with the other front men they do there job. we need another goal scorer the only one we have is nardiello and he is patchy at best.
