Players who always put the graft in and don't go sulking and picking a fight with everyone when we need them to roll their sleeves up, as well as giving away idiotic penalties?? Damn right I do!!
The truth is, we dont really need to drop Hughes. It's only a matter of time before he is out injured again with that groin again. Sooner, rather than later I hope.
No, please, No!! I only want to see two of them in the starting line up on Tuesday and that is Taylor and Gregan. But I reckon Shez, once again, will be all mouth and keep the majority of that shower from yesterday and will only make the one change, Smalley for Liddell.
He will sort it, I was very encouraged by his Latics World comments. Give some players a kick up the jacksy, they aren't undroppable. People like Allott and Hughes think they are certain starters every week, it wont be like that. I dont blame Sheridan one bit, Id have gone with the same starting XI yesterday. We werent to know the players effort would be so pitiful.
Couldnt think of four more players, but pick four up playing for the Old Grey Mare tomorrow or something - they will be more use to us on Tuesday than some of them performances out there today.
Make eleven changes on Tuesday. Flemming, Lomax, Smalley, Maher, Stephens, Alessandra, Davies all to start. In for Norm, Eardley, Liddell, Allott, Whitaker, Ormerod and Hughes.
No-One is undroppable. That includes you, Hughes!!!
I do like Lee Hughes, but you can hardly blame Gaunt for not liking the man can you? Im sure the majority of us would be saying the same if another club had signed Hughes upon his release from Prison. I have even heard Latics fans say that Newcastle are wrong for allowing Barton back into the fold. Yes, what Barton did was wrong, but he never actually killed another person did he? Imagine a former Latics player, who left for a rival club, killed an Oldhamer in his car, fled the scene and was released halfway through his sentence to sign for another club. How would we react? Im bound to get people say Im not a true Latics fan if I think this etc, but, in this instance, I dont blame Gaunty one bit.
Dont think you can compare the two. Two different players completely. The fair comparison, I believe, would be Whit and G-Mac. For that poll, Whit wins hands down.
