Pilko Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 "A frustrating night" for Shola, and Ryder gives him the incredibly low rating of... 7. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 "A frustrating night" for Shola, and Ryder gives him the incredibly low rating of... 7. Yet Simpson got a 7 & "Showed how much he cares". Always confused me how two players get the same rating yet one gets negative comments & the other gets positive.

Yorkie Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 It's the local paper and they're hardly gonna go in slating the players. Lee Ryder's up the club's arse more than Craig Hope is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Oh aye, i know. Any mug could get a job at the Chronicle by the looks of things, due to the fact that every article they print is head-over-heels with bias for the club. That's not necassarily a bad thing - like i say, it's the local paper and we need everyone on side if we're gonna go up - just look at the shit-stirring the local Derby paper caused. It's just people's apparant surprise that has - surprised - me. Don't see why anyone would expect anything different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 smith may not leave all the work to someone else....he doesn't do it either. nolan gets forward and helps out defensivly. smith is a slightly advanced centre half. i think you may have it the wrong way round. maybe nolan would be better if he could take a breather in trying to do the box to box job that he hasn't the legs for while smith does....................you see, i still dont know. Nolans just slower off the ball in general, so i dont see him being able to play a solid part in either going backwards or fowards even if he limited his game to only that. so nolan attempts box to box and does it poorly, what does smith do ? maybe if when we attacked smith pushed up 10-20yds or so he'd be another option to keep possession (even butt knows you can't just be a defensive midfielder for 90mins). of all the players available to us i'd be choosing 2 from guthrie,nolan and barton to play centre mid. Nolan pushes up into the area during our attacks to be an option, smith stays in the middle of the pitch roughly 5 yards up from the centre circle, the ideal position for a defensive midfielder. During attacks Smith should be the emergency option, always going to be open if everyone else is covered. Granted he passed s**** tonight, but during attacks the job of a holding midfielder is to be open and and easy pass. do you really believe football is played like that, rigid positioning and movement like subbuteo players ? the quicker you get rid of of the idea of defensive/attacking midfielders the better. i may even print your post off so i can have the pleasure of scrumpling it up and throwing it in the bin.

macca888 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 aahhhhhhh, I have just cottoned on. Lee Ryders marks were not out of 10, but out of 50. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Local journos rely on players for interviews and titbits of gossip, so it's in their interests to maintain good relationships. Having said that, Lee Ryder's comments are exceptionally grovelly there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you're speaking a bit too soon there madras... surely the holding midfielder is the most trendy position now, and discipline is the key to playing that role well?
