Just for the record again, Bradley wood was excellent today and for me can be forgiven for the 1 error.

But noone have said anything about g pearson 1 on 1 (where he fell over just before shooting) what's all that about.

He was tackled.

Quoted from Mighty_Mariner

Can't believe poeple leaving Niven out, IMO he was just shaded out by S Pearson for MOTM. He broke up countless Southport attacks and got forward a fair bit too. On one occasion he was in ten opposition box and witching seconds was back in our box getting in a vital block, excellent!

Every team needs a Dereck Niven!

Completely see your point.

Suppose I was thinking Thanoj needs to be involved at some point and with Disley as captain(not that it means he's automatic choice) and Niven having suffered from slight fatigue in close successive games before, it's a tough call whether to play Niven or a more attacking minded player.
Being at home you'd hope there'd be less need to have to break up play (but perhaps not).
We'll see what happens,
I'd probably throw Thanoj in for Niven myself but it's a close call.

I wish Miller's wife would hurry up and give birth, poor timing from them to have a nipper at the start of the season.

Not for one minute was it a wrong choice to play Bradley wood today he was outstanding. Some of the challenges he put his body into was just amazing, there best player by a mile is Whaley and he didn't even get a sniff, brad left his mark on him straight away and Whaley just went missing.. Brad made a mistake yes he would be first to admit maybe he should have just cleared it.? But all this shite it's woods fault blar blar blar what about pond where was he when grand scored? It was his man for the goal. Ok brad made the foul but the ball has to travel into the box. Basic man marking. People saying if hatton was playing that foul wouldn't have taken place, isn't that the same then if miller was playing would grand have got a free header? Don't see many talking about the good things he did like keeping Whaley silent like clearing his lines many a time though out the game etc.. But no all most seem to want to do is slate the lad..

Just for the record again, Bradley wood was excellent today and for me can be forgiven for the 1 error.

Are you by any chance related to Bradley or perhaps his Agent? There have been plenty of comments about how well he played before the error.

Barra 'dislikes' Bradley...readings your comments over the past few weeks its seems you have something against him?

Quoted from Gary Haddock

because Scott and Hurst know what they're talking about, where as us fans don't really

Speak for yourself !

Right let's clear this up then....
Some people know what they're talking about and some don't but it's all down to opinions.

You seem to thinks moaning is always unhelpful but I would argue constructive criticism can be helpful for people to take stock and improve. (should they agree)
But if everyone is always gonna say a big "well done" regardless, there's at least a possibility people may contiune to tread the wrong path thinking they're on the right one or feel any need to "raise their game" for the general good of the club on the pitch.

It's all well and good complaining about "journeymen" once players have left, but defend them when they don't deserve it, there's always the danger they will start taking the proverbial or do only as much as they need to.

To be clear I wholeheartedly disgaree with "moaners" who make unconstructive comments like "season over" but at the end of the day they're entitled to their opinion whether we agree or not.
At the very least, fans have a right to express an opinion or be heard even if we think it may be complete and utter sh1te.

For me Gary, too many people like you seem to want to control ever so called "negative" comment as if it somehow means it's gonna be the end of the world should they simply choose to ignor it.
At the end of the day most people are intelligent enough they can see who's making a fair point and who clearly isn't.

Quoted from Gary Haddock

we say stupid things like we could do better when in actual fact we know we can't.

We were 3 minutes away from doing better - that's the whole point.
Don't you see that criticism doesn't necessarily mean it's all doom and gloom for the future but that we're not a thousand miles away from where things could be so much better ?
If that's not postive I don't know what is !

Quoted from Gary Haddock

And not saying people can't have an opinion just think with it being so early and yet so many negative views already, it's hardly encouraging is i?

Don't get your point here.
If you're saying your hopes for the season are based on others opinions then you've lost me.
I'm sure success will ultimately boil down to S&H.
As for this "people will be put off" argument I don't partcularly buy it.
Results are ultimately the main factor on attendances so as always, it's important we get things right on the pitch.

Sorry but living in a fantasy world where no-one is able to ever be fairly criticized doesn't make for a healthy fan base (IMO).
But like I said if people want their moan then I would hope they do it on a messageboard than at the match.
