I don’t think our striking contingent is anywhere near as good as people make out. If I was a betting man I would pair Norwood with Willoughby which I think could be our best option!

And he was spot when he said, if players can’t hack that then they shouldn’t be playing. Firm but fair. Unsworth got hammered for that.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is a lot of times when he scores and does nothing else. (Which is fine if he scores) But a lot of managers might want more from him- and to be fair he might step up. Time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got hammered for publicly singling out a young player on his first and only appearance in his tenure. Which is completely different to a generic comment made in the press about what he expects from every individual in the squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinions based on an interpretation of actual facts are immeasurably superior.

Londonboy Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Anyway back on topic.... We have an experienced and proven new manager in Mellon, who is better placed than anyone to get the best out of Norwood, which we havnt seen yet. I'm predicting him getting 20+ more goals from now until the end of the seson. So with the classic new manager bounce, a sold out away following local derby this weekend and a current unbeaten in 7 run, we should piss over Rochdale on Saturday, and move into the top 7 next Tuesday night after mullering bottom of the table Fylde. Onwards and upwards... See how positive I'm being! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
