Strange choice

Post by Redcard »

I thought marsh being nominated man of match a strange choice , for me Wilkinson was the standout player. He was unlucky with the header that hit the crossbar, and showed excellent skill to drive his way into the box but each time he avoided a player another would block his way, eventually blocking his shot. He also shot just wide on the turn and battled well all game , in contrast to angel who I thought offered very little.

I would probably have given it to either Turley or Wilkinson, but I often wonder if I’ve just watched the same game as the match sponsors sometimes.

Turley for me too. The whole back four were in with a shout, to be honest.

Indeed, Marsh had a decent game but not standout to be MOTM. I go for Sargeant as he looked solid for the first time and made two vital stops.

Sarge had nowt to do except those two saves, and his kicking was below par.

For me those two saves probably end with two goals in other weeks. In context of Sargeant coming in and looking the part as #1 I'd give him the nod. Otherwise as above Turley, making the difference at the back since he's returned.

I would have given it to Josh Wright just to piss off the Bradford supporters

Why are some fans (some) having a meltdown on Twitter about Wright getting booed by the Bradford fans? Could have sworn our fans (some) were giving Adams stick very recently.
