Thought Hooper looked a lazy illegitimate. Neither he nor the other 'striker' whose name escapes me, were making themselves available for a ball into the box. Neither really troubled their defenders or put pressure on. I was never a fan of the Shop but at least he would have made a nuisance of himself.

Rose seemed to try in spells. There just weren't many of them.

Quoted from HertsGTFC


We offered him a deal who turned it down as he wanted to keep his options open


Should have offered him a two year deal at the end of the season. Mind you, it matters not. Slade would have got shot of him in January.

Hooper didn’t challenge for one header today! So frustrating to watch. His movement is non existent.

On a side.... how did Wilks miss in the first half


If you get chance to watch the game back, please do. He won quite a few headers. Plenty early on in the game actually.

Maybe an example of someone's bias influencing what you see?

Thought Hooper and Wilks were ok today, except for them both continually going for the same ball. Hooper DID try for headers today and actually won a few. But the finishing from everyone was woeful.

Rose is just so slow in thought. He’s a constant ball-watcher and then he does something rash to make up for it. His ‘finish’ today summed up our winless run.

No influencing. I just don’t Re call!

I agree about Hooper winning quite a few headers today, particularly 1st half, and a number he didn’t were because he was being climbed all over by the CB’s

I do agree that he doesn’t anticipate, or time runs in to the box well, but I think he should be persisted with looking at the hand we have, perhaps paired with Jackson when fit

We are going down but for full dramatic effect will wait until the last day before dropping in to the bottom 2.

We create next to zero and when we do we have no strikers. No goals means relegation. I think it is November when we last scored 2 goals in a game.

Probably the worst two players I’ve witnessed in a Town shirt in last 20 years!!!


Aren't they currently two of our top scorers?  

And with Dembele playing today too we had our top marksmen out there

Really!? Did you actually go to the game as from where I was sitting, he challenged for, and subsequently won a lot of headers during the game, first half especially!

Still never looked like scoring a goal.
