No they’re not. Green is perpetually dreadful.

And you think Hunt would be the answer?  Hurst didn't fancy him, DA doesn't fancy him and he is inconsistent.  Why do you think he has been released if he's that good?



He might be inconsistent but when he plays well, even in short periods of the game, he’s better than any other midfield player on our books. Andrews and Wood not strong enough for this league and are not ready for the battle ahead. I think Hunt has had much more first team experience and even if not playing regularly would, IMO, do enough to win us points between now and the end of the season.

Our midfield options are frighteningly bad, made worse if Khouri also goes out, and if Hunt leaves we need three new players in this position alone. Gav, Green, Harry, Wood, Andrews where is the creativity, physicality and leadership? It’s non existent very concerning.

I feel a bit for Wood being called not good enough.  Came on and scored on his debut and then had a shitter on his first start - but early to write home off surely.

I’d take inconsistent with ability above utter dross. Andrews, Wood, Green and, to a lesser extent, Clifton were dross on Saturday.


Wood has made 2 appearances and on one of them he stuck it in the top corner to make it 5-5. Talk about writing a lad off too early... Hunt has had 18 months to nail down a starting spot here and hasn't ever come close.. he's made 32 appearances in that time. To say he hasn't had a fair crack of the whip isn't really true, he's been here a long time now and there's clearly something else to it than just ability.

Welcome to The Fishy.

Pyke was classed as dross until he started scoring. Vernam was virtually retired and a waste of money until he performed well in a cameo.

One mistake, and you're written off, until you're not anymore, because some here don't understand that players are human, and have off days, or take a little time to work their way in to form. You'd think some had never followed a football team before...

I actually didn't mind Woods performance, despite things not coming off he was constantly looking to get on the ball and trying things. I'd much rather that then him being a passenger in a game. He's obviously got some ability as his stint over in Ireland showed. It'll be about whether he can adapt to L2 football.

Yeah will give you that one, but as for the others would you want us to sign them if they played for someone else?

Yeah, very unfair. He's just got here, a work in progress for the following months. Andrews is a little worrying, when he's good he's very good but when he's not he's very average, just the latest player to start well and drop away. Gavs struggling for consistency and Harry...no better than those mentioned yet the first on the team sheet it seems.
Baffled by all of this too.
