Have you ever been to a football match before?
Imagine getting upset at a football player being described as 'useless'. What a delicate little petal you are.
Nothing to do with being a delicate little petal. Everything to do with banding about insulting comments.
Posting was not a heat of the moment comment after an on-field cock up. We all do that, even the players I’m sure, and worse. I heard a few choice comments when Wilkinson got sent off for example.
Posting on here was a cold calculated insult. Disgraceful.
Thanks, you've more or less said what I was going to say. I trust you can see the big difference, Red.
I can’t. Theres not much help for you if you think someone calling Alabi useless is such a heinous crime.

I agree with the comments about Matt Harold. Works bloody hard and certainly doesn’t look out of place in L2. Wouldn’t surprise me if he got another year offer. As an impact player he is doing well.
Matt's playing well from the beginning of games ,never mind as impact sub and is making a real difference to our attack . Ross mentioned he should have used Matt more and regrets not doing so .

Definitely in the best form of his time with us and fully justifying the decision to extend his contract.

Why are you encouraging supporters to abuse James? That's awful.
Made me smile that one

I wonder if not playing reserve games leads to some players not being fit. Alabi has not had much game time this season and that might explain why he looked unfit. Reserve games would also help players like Dayton get back to fitness.

Up until the Northampton game, I am sure that Alabi and Harrold have had the same amount of game time. Yet they have gone in different directions despite Harrold being 10 years older.
Harrold has done really well, still am a bit sceptical that he take an extended run of games, but hopefully Angol comes back within a month. He's been a bonus this season, quite a shame that in his career he never really got to play a bigger role for us.

Harrold is a far superior footballer to Alabi, which helps. He is hugely underrated as a footballer- technically he is decent, but his other qualities hide this a bit.
I don't think it was necessarily a case of Alabi being shot on Saturday. He did do a sustained chase for a good 30 seconds, and when the defender turned away from him he looked more resigned to not winning the ball than tired. I think tripping over the ball was more to do with talent than his physical condition.

That 30 seconds of chasing down 2 defenders done him in. He was spent after that. It’s ridiculous.
