Why does nearly every post on this thread have a downvote, a few people on the fishy got proper red tick syndrome lately


Red tick syndrome should be the least of some people's worries on here

Agree with Johnnyboy, no improvement on what we have, gave away countless free kicks and baring one good ball to Sam Jones just played everything else safe.

People who were sat near me at the Barnsley game seemed to wet themselves whenever he got the ball, and were sympathetic when he gave the ball away. Let's just say they weren't so forgiving when Luke Summerfield came on.

Seems like a lot of people on here don't like Summerfield-because they say he gives the ball away too much. A player who tries to create something with his passing is bound to make more mistakes than somebody who only does 10 yard sideways passes like a lot of our players over the last few seasons. You get 100% effort from him.

I'd sooner watch someone with 80% skill and 20% effort, than one with 20% skill and 80% effort, I know which one will win you games.

I give you Peter Sweeney, Thomas Pinault, Ashley Sestanovich among others.

Give me effort every day of the week.

We had something similar with Vose but did he win us that many games?

We got similar levels of effort and commitment from the likes of Anthony Church and Serge Makofo but wouldn't want them anywhere near the team. Those attributes will only get you so far.

Having said that I actually don't think Luke is as bad as some on here say and I'm happy for him to be a squad player - just not starting XI for me.
