The Mikey The Imp Twitter is a bullshit account. Said in the summer Amos was going to Oldham, Liam O’Neil was signing for us, Otis Khan was moving to Barrow and that we were set to announce Kyran Lofthouse last week (who went to MK).

Harry has been and is an amazing servant for this club. You couldn't ask for a better attitude and his work-rate is second to none. However, I do think he's better out wide as he hasn't got the ability on the ball to play central midfield consistently well, particularly in a possession based style of play. I also don't think he's anywhere near Championship standard. He's average/slightly below average in technical terms for a L2 midfielder, made up for by his physicality and attitude. But he's miles off the standard of a Championship player.

Watch the documentary to see what makes Harry tick. Watched it last night and for me my respect for him grew. I have been  critical of him at times but listening to his words, his emotions and his recent experiences hit home.

Lots of words and interviews in the documentary  but his and probably Dave Moores were the standouts for me.

Two of our own.

Except that two successive managers make him one of the first names on the team sheet. I’ll bow to their better judgement.


Not sure what your point is in regard to what I actually said in my post.

Pretty fair assessment imo

Quoted from GtfcGarner
Knowing Harry's family personally, he's turned down multiple moves from higher up and which would of benefitted him significantly financially he's had the chance and not kicked up a fuss. The lad has played absolutely everywhere he's been told without an attitude or arrogance problem. Had an absolute belter of a year for us last year and the one time that he's gone through abit of a steady patch we are ready to turn our back on him?

Whatever happened to one of our own?  


Whose turning their back on him?    The manager has to pick the best team as they see it. It's a meritocracy, and nobody has a free pass.

The fans should be, and are proud of Harry, and he is one of our own however this is not a Junior School where you get Gold Stars just for turning up. I don't think Harry would want it any other way.

As bad as he's been this season, so has everyone else. He offers something none of the others do in the fact that you can count on him for 90 minutes to cover every blade of grass. He offers a lot of versatility to which was demonstrated at MK Dons, another reason he's probably in the team as it gives you better options for who you can name on the bench.

Harry plays today so all the people who have criticised him are proved wrong. DA, like PH, must think highly of him as do most on here.

Why the hell do we tell people to get on and achieve things in this country and when they do, someone is always waiting to knock em down.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Well, I did not criticise him in my post, but as many others have said, he has not had a good season so far.

Can't argue with that. However, there must be a position he is best at and hence alloted.
