I don't begin to get our attitude to Maguire. When he gets a game he is always the one dropped if we lose - and he's dropped not just for a game, but for several months. His only hope of a game is a spate of defensive injuries. Even Bob's Boarders selecting their idea of the team universally leave him on the bench in favour of any old loanee. It's not as though we have any world-beating centre backs. Nelson couldn't get a game at Yeovil and Whitmore wasn't exactly beating off the suitors was he?
Ricky German gets shoddy, waterlogged loans and if he ever makes our bench he gets 0-10 minutes in impossible situations and is immediately punished for his failure to achieve a miracle by further loans ,or, even worse, demotion to the non-existent, non-playing, reserve team.
Joe Rowley has committed the cardinal sin of growing and was dropped for it, clearly didn't even fit the bench well and went out of the top eighteen entirely. Charlie Wakefield sometimes stars with the juniors or in the Senior Cup, but isn't near selection. Ofoegbu occasionally gets to add a multi-cultural touch to the bench. Brownell did well at Sheffield so has been left to stagnate without a game. Willock, we're hoping the damp atmosphere of Matlock will shrink him so he becomes less of a prospect. Sharman apparently looks cool playing against men, so we are extending his time playing against boys. Hand needs to take the next step, so we've chained him to the juniors. Parkin revealed a taste for heroism, so has been placed in a darkened room. Amantchi and Rawson - we're hoping Llera doesn't bring them on too much for us easily to destroy them. And Russ, let him grab his Welsh caps now, as he hasn't got a daffodil in hell's chance of making first-team football playing with us.
Yes with all that youth and promise the prospects are bleak. If we win at Cleethorpes I'll eat a fish.
