Reilly & Thompson were injured surely ?
Yes and no...

Reilly been injured / unfit for the majority of the season but got left out after his 15 minute cameo in the previous midweek game. When asked by Dave Victor about his absence and whether he was injured KJ said that he was fit and available for selection.

Thompson "not rated by Kenny as a CB" in Ling's words during the podcast the other week. Bit of a moot point really as we've had solid options at CB pretty much all season and it's just about the last area of the squad to be concerned about, along with the keeper.
so 2 players back from LT injuries , how many games did thompson play after returning & how many did we play ? as for REILLY have you read whats been written on here about him ?

Have people really taken issue with this? :lol:

Thompson has been back since around New Year I think? Even taking the Happe injury into account he's still 3rd or 4th choice CB behind Ogie and probably Ray as well.

As for Reilly yes he has been a total waste of a wage thus far, basically we've paid a professional footballer to be a commentator such is his output thus far. It's hard to imagine how he could be worse than what's playing in CM at the moment though :shock:

Thompson has been on the bench 6 times & played twice . when did he get injured & how long was he out before the comeback the 2 starts & the subs ? Hardly bocco is it ? Reilly is 38 so any injury will take longer, again hardly bocco'd .

Apart from Justin and contrary to many supporters beliefs I actually (and I’ve said this before) believe Ling got it right when appointing Fletcher. Fletchers immediate appraisal of the team at the time was spot on. He knew at least 7 or 8 players had to go and those players at the time were under 2 year contracts. There was no way the club could afford to do that. So it was easier to get rid of one than many. Where Fletcher went wrong was alienating the dressing room,which was the wrong way to go about it. He should have waited and took more time. Weather he would have been a good tactician and coach we will never know? One other point which I feel is important is why do all these mangers that get sacked (and the list grows) have gagging orders put on them. Surly if the club is so transparent why impose this. If the board have nothing to hide then let the ex managers tell there side of the story🙈

Ignore the blokes injuries
Ignore Thompsons injuries .

Just focus on errors ,
But that is my trap.

Just to show how wrong you are .

Nothing to say on Thompsons

Life's to short
They get paid up & move on.

What interest do they have in giving knowledge to
half wit fans who think they need to know what happens every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every season of every year of every decade of every century of
every millennium ?
