Hooper didn't score enough for us, he wasnt clinical enough up top and his not league 2 level.

1 hatrick at the end of last season and some people thought he would smash it this season. Jolley game him enough chances and his clearly not good enough.

All the best Hooper at Bromley. utm


That hat trick came against a FGR side that were already on their holidays and didn't turn up to play. It seemed like potential is there but can see him as another player who shows potential as a young player but doesn't take his chances and slides down the leagues.

Difference about Jolley's removal of the Slade era is I have agreed with all of the decisions. Slade's systematic extermination of the Bignot era, and to a lesser extent the more successful Hurst era, almost always made we wince at how we had a heart to our club and then Slade ripped it out with seeming willfulness. This time I feel Jolley is attempting to bring a heart and soul back to the club, the players seem more energetic and genuinely care about what they're doing.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Said before he arrived he was not good enough, every P Vale fan I know said he is not good enough and as it turns out he was not good enough. Good luck to him at Bromley a pity league football success still didn't happen for him here .

TBF he was given ample opportunity to show us what he could do but frustratingly he never fulfilled his potential we are not the first club to realise this.

WHS frustratingly there is a player in JJ but not seen enough to warrant anymore time being spent on him.

I think it would be fair to let him go as he hasn't scored enough since,  but those goals were sublime shots.

Miles off what we need in terms of everything.  I don't doubt the lads effort but I don't think he really had the heart for it.  Frustrated the hell out of me when he would hide behind defenders rather than show for the ball.  Same with headers, yeah he might win the odd one but more often than not he would jump away from the ball, making sure he didn't have to contest it.

There's something in there, he showed enough glimpses to suggest he could be a good player for someone.  But his minuses massively outweigh his pluses.

Telling that we look a lot better all round since he's not in the side.
