Shackell was v average - positioning not the best.

It''s pretty clear after yesterday''s gutless and inept display that some players had already settled their futures and were having a bit of a laugh! The rumours that Green, Francis and Ashton are on their way look well-founded. Loyalty, pssht!

It''s about time we faced up to facts, stopped making excuses and invoking ''lady luck'' every time a result goes against us. Let us instead ask some serious questions about commitmwent, ability and tactics. Here are three: Do Helveg, Jonnson and Huckerby, when he''s up against better opposition, have commitment?Do Drury and McKenzie. to name but two, have the ability to play at this level?Tactically, why are we continually allowing teams to get through the middle of our defence, or is that more about ability and commitment?Perhaps Woolnough has a point; we do often look spinelessly gutless and quite prepared to go down ''gamely''. That''s a great pity when NCFC has such a dedicated following! Only hope it changes. Plymcanary      

Sickerby, yes. From Norwich, they take us for Hickerbies and suckerbies. But they''ve ridden their luckerby, so Huckerby go F.....by.
