oafcprozac Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 After being part of a team that was destroyed 6-0 in midweek can't say i'm too surprised. I'm worried about Greegs, missing most of pre-season can't be good for someone of his age who toiled before in getting his sharpness back after injury. Good call by Dicky imo. Greegs is our leader but we need him FULLY fit for a trip to places such as the Valley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Not yet match fit, I read it as. What's the surprise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitch_KTF Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I love Dicko but at this rate me and he will fall out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I love Dicko but at this rate me and he will fall out. He's at least 6 games behind everyone else, no great suprise, though a last 10 mins cameo if we are not fighting to save the game or similar would have helped him out Good call by PD though, all the players that have played well have kept their place.

After tomorrow four out of the next five (inc tinpot paintbrush cup game) are at home and are all winnable, I hope Greegs will get some game time in those games...

razza699 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I love Dicko but at this rate me and he will fall out. So you would rather him play an unfit Gregan and us concede 5 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyPimp Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Greegs clearly isn't fit at the moment (even by his own standards!). We have centre-half cover so I'd much rather we eased him back into action. As Prozac says, we've got a good run of winnable home games coming up where the odd 10-15 minutes might be possible. On a different note, I'm looking forward to seeing Smalley in action under Dickov. When on form and working hard he's a real handful. Unfortunately, under previous managers we haven't seen enough of this but if Lewis is anything to go by... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics_Fanatic Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 In my honest opinion I cant see Gregan get much game time this season, unless we really need him. Jarrett and Hazell look brilliant at the back and then we have cover with M'voto & McDonald. In a perfect world we could have the Gregan from last season but due to lack of pre-season he isnt fit at all, possibly too slow for a CB now, PD could play him in DM role infront of Jarrett and Hazell, see how that works, if he did play in that role he would always have cover if he got caught out.

Ernie For England Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Even if Gregan was fit, with the way Hazell and Jarret are playing he wouldn't get in the team anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underdog Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Like PD has said, they all have to fight for the right to be in the team and maintain their place. No matter how old or young they are. I like this, you have to prove yourself. Furman has done it, stephens too. So we have Taylor, Smalley and when fit, a Gregan too. Wow, not bad players to have fighting to get into the 1st team. Healthy competetion and keeps all on their toes......even us fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Will Gregan still travel down with the players? As if he is the club captain and he will surely only be a positive influence in the dressing room? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it probably part of PD'S decision was based on a lengthy coach journey which would do Greegs no favours as he bids to regain fitness. Might as well save him for the run of home games coming up, good management in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
