Good luck to the lad but I’m happy with the first team selections that Gary Rowett makes. Curtains as you know I also attend many under 23s matches and my opinion is as valid as yours. My opinion is he's looking a bit bored with the football there but we know because it was told us by the club that Rowett had challenged him to push his way into the first team picture and he did just that, only to be sidelined again on his return from injury. I think Lawrence is a classy player but sometimes he doesn't perform up to his potential and I would like to have the option of bringing on Bennett rather than Anya, who doesn't excite me at all.

rynny Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 26 minutes ago, curtains said: Hanson always looks like he could make it but of course Neil Warnock thought he would be a step down from Huddlestone lol. Am I being facetious mate Of course Hanson is a step down from Huddlestone. There aren't many in the division that has the talent that Huddlestone has and many would be a step down from him. That isn't even what we are on about. We are talking about whether Hanson has had a real opportunity to show his potential or not. You think 12 league starts and only 2 consecutive games at a time is enough for a youth player to show if they are good enough and I think they need a run of games in the team before deciding.

Been to more U23 games than you have had hot dinners lol I think this answer about sums up everything you’ve said. What do you look for in a player to define who is and isn’t good enough? How can you, as a fan, define what you are looking for in a player to decide he’s good enough/he isn’t good enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet if you scroll down enough to the time of the infamous Brentford match (late september), they’ll be a few ‘rowett out’ comments Come on. Its not calling for him to be sacked . You'll have to do better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did say its not specifically calling for him to be sacked, that was just an example of a thread that I remembered that showed that fans showed some dissatisfaction early on. Although, I did find a post, from the 28th of August in that thread saying 'Disappointing I know but I think mels axe needs to fall once more'. Only one example, I know, but I just clicked to a random page and it was one of the comments. Like I said, I bet if you look at the matchday thread or the date on the 'is Rowett up to it' for the Brentford game, there will be people wanting him to be sacked.
