Also Umerah, goes down constantly every time someone goes anywhere near him, weak as water

I've said before, the players aren't playing for Askey, for what ever reason. I think he's lost the dressing room.

Thought Featherstone was good tonight, kept it simple and slowed or speeded up pace accordingly , also Crawford was good, until the usual early exit

Disagree - think you're being a bit dramatic ZNB :naughty:

you can understand players getting injured but not him. if it had been a freezing night he might have caught frostbite. again their commentator said he was having a quiet game. did not realise he is actually 25. thought he was a bit of an inexperianced kid playing above his level.

Finney gets knocked off the ball too easily. Last night he again was anonymous, it was like playing with 10 men. I thought Crawford was our best player last night.

finney actually improved once he went off the pitch. agree on crawford.

Umerah had a decent game. Tested their keeper twice and worked hard. It generally took a couple of Boredom players to get the ball off him - that's being 'weak as water?"

Finney was a waste of space. Sure he's only in the side because he's one of the few midfielders available for selection..

Not sure if you watched the full game like I did but Umerah constantly fell over whether pushed or not, needs to be stronger and make space for himself better, was at least involved in the game unlike some of our other players.

Yes - saw it a bit differently, that's all. Josh does have a tendency to tie himself up in knots at the minute. Like any forward, he needs a goal, so does Manny D at this point!

I was shocked Finney was still under contract this year tbh, occasional flashes of thinsg but nowhere near good enough for even conf level

Shows how desperate we were that him and Dolan were able to negotiate a deal into this year

Really think this year is consolidation/patience with Askey etc and then we have a proper go next year, once the players sucking out the budget are gone (Wastie, Shatterson, NDjoli Up, Dole-an Finney etc..)

I am a bit annoyed Askey seems to rate Lacey above Pruti but all about opinions
