    He is our 3rd choice left back and only just had his 19th birthday. At least the kid tries and actually gets back in. That can't be said for the other full back we're carrying.

    We've had about five wake up calls now I'd say. Can't really put my finger on what the issue is apart from perhaps just not being quite as good as we think. We seem to be surprisingly easy to beat or at least frustrate if we don't score first.

    We used to say that about Jim o Brian

    Well at least he tries

    He may well do but he’s not good enough and already cost us 4 goals

    I get other players also poor but we have to buy some talent in January or we will find ourselves mid table before we know it

    But he's our 3RD CHOICE. You're not going to get many league 1 teams carrying 3 left backs in a squad are you? He's a very young kid. He had a good game at P'boro. He was ok against Luton. The whole team bar none were pretty awful tonight all the way through. I can forgive a player trying at 19 on his 3rd game more than I can a player whos played 20 odd games and going through the motions only doing the bits he wants to, irrespective of how much it costs us.
