Anyone fancy telling me why the hell PH brung in Mackreth if all he is going to do is rot on the bench?

Last season he was bloody amazing, one of the best on show in this league, now he has been retained to the bench?

i'm not a fan for the tinkering which PH has been doing, but if he is going to keep tinkering at least give the lad a chance and give us a full chance to see what he can do.

To be fair, he hasn't looked that great, at times a bit like a young Colbeck.

A physically weaker Colbeck for sure. However, thought he looked threatening yesterday.

Can't say he's impressed me this season in his fleeting appearances (he did start the season but got injured don't forget) but he got 32 minutes yesterday and looked ok. Wouldn't be surprised to see him start on Tuesday.

First chance I had to see him yesterday and was very impressed. The Colbeck comparison is a terrible one on that showing, Mackreth has pace and can take players on. Something Colbeck could never do.

Sorry but that made me giggle.

I have always rated Jack Mackreth in this league, and was hoping we signed 2 season's ago, but no league club have come in for him and it's probably because he's inconsistent like a lot of Conference players. What we don't do for him is get supporting him he gets marked by 2 players and no one helps and no one gives him a outlet, we need to get him into space because he has pace to burn i would like to see diagonal passes to him to get him in behind the back four. I think he can be good winger for Ross Hannah.

Agree seems a bit lightweight but got stuck in on Sat and once he hits the bye line he can certainly put in dangerous crosses.

His best performance for us on Saturday. Just a pity we weren't able to get the ball to him a little more often when he came on as he looked to have the beating of that full-back. I suppose the problem was that we just didn't have the players to create space for him once LJL was forced to go off.
