Sounds like he`s not bad in goal 8) Agree Naylor shouldn`t play up front.

Oh dear, don't know what to make of that. Mind you we got what we deserved, giving Stoke some credit, they looked a lot more hungry & commited than we did (maybe we made them look better!!!), a prime example when late in the 2nd half one of our players had the ball and was immediately closed down by no less than 3 Stoke players, They never let our players settle for a second, we ended up hoofing the ball upfield, bypassing our ineffective midfield and the ball was coming straight back. I would have liked to have seen Skard given a chance, he may have given us some bite, and he could have done no worse than the majority of our team today. I want to see our team play with the commitment that a very ordinary Stoke side gave today!!
For me, only Wilnis (bar the own goal) and Haynes really looked up for it today, the rest were mediocre at best!!!!

Bowditch was one of our best players out there yesterday, he certainly showed more passion than the rest of the side.

Lee, on the other hand, was absolute an utter b0ll0x.

How any1 can say that about bowditch is beyond me, we didnt even realise he was playing til 25 mins into the game, he was utter sh*t and he doesnt deserve to wear that shirt, he didnt do a single thing

Im generally of the opinion Bowditch is worthless and has wasted his promising talent. But yesterday he did hold up the ball well and lay it off well at times. Tbh i was dissapointed he went off, which i never thought id say! :lol:

yes another bad performance yesterday - simlar to that at Luton last week.

For what it's worth IMHO ....

1. The "season" for ITFC finished a few weeks ago - when realistic playoff hopes had gone - there is "nothing left to play for" for these players now..and many have already said they are looking forward to next season when things will be exciting for this squad.

2. We STILL do not have two fit strikers in the squad. It was plain for all to see that Lee was a virtual passenger yesterday. but playing, cos we have no other options avaialable . ..and this has been the case ALL season, up front. The likes of Haynes, Bowditch (dont make me laugh ) , MacDonald are simpy not strong enough.

3. The midfield (like the attack) is also now devoid of fit players . No Westy...NO Williams..and until the last two games NO Juan (he was quite obviously not "in the groove" yesterday).


4. This small and relativley young Squad are pure and simply - knackered and playing with either half fit or injured players.

give 'em credit for being where they are in this league - by rights we should be relegated based on what JR had to work with at the start of the season

If you want to moan about "under-achiveing" - you should be wearing a yella n green shirt !!

there...moan over ! - see ya next season and with a full compliment of strikers and midfielders I think we have a bloody good squad here !
:roll:
