Even if he doesn’t make it, it’s great to see a lad with some hunger and desire playing in the first team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcx666 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Fair play to the lad, but calls for playing the kids again? I remember those calls when Carlos was manager, then Jos took over, played the kids and OT gave him sh*t for it, and reverted to "why aren't we playing the experienced players."

Buddy Repperton Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 After a cr@p few days it was such a pleasure to see a new name on the team sheet. The lad did really well & lets hope he pushes on at SWFC!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can gather, he had made the most compelling case out of the U23s for a possible inclusion on Saturday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Difference to the Jos situation would hopefully be integrating younger players in gradually surrounded by experienced players guiding them. How much would he have learned from being beside Iorfa. Jos put them all in together and in a weakened team. Destroying them in the process. The message to Palmer is you have a rival for your spot.

metaframe Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Was so pleased for him playing well. Could have overawed him based on the interview but he stuck to the job well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essix Blue Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Good management also from GM. Clearly saw this lad was knocking on the door for a game, selected him (probably intentionally) for an away fixture where pressure is off somewhat and we weren’t expected to win. Good professionals playing around him and helping him. Don’t expect him to play next week but, as Palmer seems to be out a little while and maybe GM has realised Iorfa is his first choice CB, maybe he will keep his place. Exciting times for the lad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tudders Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 If he had played well against AFC Fylde at home, fair enough, but the fact that he was dropped in to the team-who are low on morale- away from home against a Premier League team who fielded a strong side, makes his performance all the more impressive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scilly owl Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Well, Christmas from a Wednesday perspective was a non event... even my Wednesday car mats, Wednesday polo shirt, Wednesday mug and Wednesday ceramic sign couldn’t paper over the abject throw that the team served up... then wait, along comes a fresh faced nineteen year old that I’ve never heard of and he’s rescued my Christmas. That joyous interview has put my mood back on track. If I was the interviewer I would have had to stop myself kissing him. He may come across all star struck, meek and mild but I think that I detected a steely determination . I’ll bet that when some “ been around the block” winger thinks that liberties can be taken he will be in for an uncomfortable shock I wouldn’t think twice about playing him against L••ds... he’s in the zone and loving the buzz. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the beauty of being a football fan we can scuttle back to the opposite and still feel superior to the experts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 His interview has gone viral on Twitter. Great to see some positive PR for the club instead of all the usual negative EFL, SYP, SAG nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
