How Hurst thinks Toto is better than McDonald escapes me.


I'd be very interested to hear exactly what happened with McDonald's weird 'injury' related omission from the starting line-up against Lincoln last Christmas and subsequent departure. Clearly something untoward went on, because otherwise his release was terrible judgement on Hurst's part (not that I have much faith in his judgement anyway!)

It was not 15 mins. Obviously Brodie milked the win, initially with the Southport fans and most of the players had gone down the tunnel when he arrived. I did not see an incident with Toto, but Brodie stood on the edge of the pitch and refused to go down the tunnel until it was cleared. Eventually he left the pitch and went down the tunnel escorted by stewards.

The story I heard at Lincoln on the day was about a incident at the Xmas party  but maybe that was just ill informed gossip from terraces .. Who knows ?  But have to admit last night big Clayton looked a lot better player than toto

I would love to be proved wrong and I got red crossed on many an ocassion for saying this but even before the season started I wasn't that impressed by him during the friendlies he played.

He always looks like a disaster waiting to happen each game and for me at the moment he isn't as good as Doig even with his dodgy legs.

I thought he looked a little shaky to start with but would settle in once he got to know his teammates. Unfortunately, he seems to be getting worse rather than better at the moment. I'd take Boyce ahead of him every day of the week.

You would hope that Doig and Hurst are giving him some intensive coaching because they've certainly got a lot of defensive experience, not to forget Dave Moore as well. Just needs to improve with his decision making and realise that you can't always beat the striker to the ball and giving away silly free-kicks is not good defending.
