Glaser Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Why when he played so well as he did in the 2nd half against Peterborough, do we shift him back out wide and replace him, without giving him a run of games, in his natural, obviously most comfortable position ? He is not a left back. Horrific distribution today.... Shank after shank after mis-placed pass... Fair play, Jones and Batth (his replacements) looked solid..... but we are not allowing him to settle into a new team and new league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgmetcalf Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Doesn't take long for someone to kick a person when he's down does it? I wonder who the boo boys will turn their attention to next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 got to question the motives behind those who seem determined to destroy reynolds swfc career 8 games in. It was Buxton last season, Purse up til christmas, looks like Reynolds is next in line. absolutely no reason to suggest he wont come good at centrehalf next season, the fact that hes playing at left back instead of the two left backs we have tells me megson is asking him to do a job there til next season, and im positive he will bring in a new left back in summer. youve got to let new players settle, not seize the first opportunity to destroy them. some people manage to be honest with their assessment of the performances whilst taking a longer term view of the players, others get hysterical after any mistake. sadly, the latter seems to be the most vocal.

Bannofan Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Well, I guess I have to defer to those who have been today and seen his performance, but I can't believe he is a write off. I would have thought the top half of the Scottish Premiership was the same standard as the Championship, but maybe I'm wrong. We expected big things from Reynolds, maybe more than any of the other of 68 players that have come in this season..but he isn't the only one to have underperformed. Michael Morrison played well in the division above, in fact other than Madine who has come in and performed to expectations? I think due to his ' previous' we should keep an open mind until he has a full pre season and plays consistently in his natural position. I understand the dissapointment, but I think it would be foolish to completely bin him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts, Motherwell, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen and the two glasgow clubs would comfortably get out of league 2, and probably finish top 10 league 1.

Guest maltaowl Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Although Reynolds isn't a left back and prefers to play centre back, today his errors were basic that should be completed no matter what positon(i.e passing) When he joined I had high hopes for him and I still believe he has potential but at the moment it dwindling fast. In my view I'd only use him as a centre half during this year and give Jones a run at left back. Then after a full pre season hopefully he will come good if not then..........

Guest Stereophonics Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 After all the activity in the transfer market, spurr is still our best left back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innes Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Wow... this is from a Dagenham fan: Thought it was one of Greeny's best games for us this season. Saying that, I think their left back was the worst opposition player I have seen all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starling35 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I bet Beswetherick is p1ssing himself tonight as he's no longer our worst ever full back! Get Tommy back asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannofan Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 After all the activity in the transfer market, spurr is still our best left back True. Unfathomable and scary as that is, True. Mind you, we could have signed Philip Lahm and Patrice Evra in January and they would probably have played shybo for us. Something happens to decent players when they come to us. We are a career graveyard at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Just so that I know, cos I haven't been for a while due to becoming suicidal every Saturday evening after watching another inept performance, is Reynolds even shiter than the other poo we have playing for us at the moment? In the shiter than poo stakes, how does he compare to Darren Potter for e.g? Would he get in a Wednesday Shitest Players ever XI? Perhaps I should ask Daz. Whiter than white, shiter than poo , its much the same innit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiter than white, shiter than poo , its much the same innit? iv only seen him a couple of times, some of my mates have seen him a few times recently. general concensus is that he cant get forward like spurr or jones, and looks a bit like a rabbit in headlights right now. thoughts were that he was quick and could be decent next to a big centrehalf, but probably needs to be taken out of the firing line right now.

BRUCE LEE Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 As it stands now he's in the same league as Beswetherick, Westwood, and R'eda Johnson for being embarrasingly poo poo. Woeful player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally irrelevant, any professional footballer should be capable of demonstrating a half decent first touch irrespective of their favoured position.

Davidioso Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 His distribution was poorer than Purse's today His distribution yesterday makes Tommy Spurr look like a worldbeater, that's how poor it was Doesn't help playing one up front I suppose - not a lot to aim at, but the guy's confidence must be totally shot. He did win a few headers under pressure, but apart from that it was a totally inept performance (yesterday anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
