Lambo 0 Posted April 16, 2011 Why is a Colchester fan posting on here?? Are they still trying to develop a "rivalry" with us?? We were finished with you the minute the ref blew the whistle when we spanked you 5-0, I genuinely don''t even know where your "club" are in their respective division, let alone come to one of your messageboards.

Crafty Canary 547 Posted April 16, 2011 My scapegoats are:Paul Lambert for not picking a side that wins every game,McNally for appointing a manager whose team doesn''t win every game,Delia for appointing a Chief Executive who appoints people who cannot ensure we win every game.What a shower!!

Mister Chops 7 Posted April 17, 2011 [quote user="thefutureisyellow"]Let`s discuss Grant Holt![/quote]I know we had a good result on Friday so it seems harsh to cast doubt on anyone''s peformance plus I know that Holt was immense for us last season, we love him to bits and he''s scored some great goals in the past. I also appreciate that he works hard, puts himself about and holds the ball up well but ................ either he''s still not fit so should he be playing or maybe he''s going to find goals hard to come by in this league. Also I dont understand why he spends so much time on the wings when he should be in the box?????I know he did great for us last season but this league is a whole different ball game for him so do you think he''ll cut it in the championship or do you think like me that we need to get an experienced championship striker in on loan to give him competition or play instead of him with Martin or Jackson if he isnt cutting the mustard?Whats your thoughts ?

Chris Martin''s ok though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]Look at Holts goal per game contribution upto that point (upto Tahns game in fact) and compare it to his form since then.The summary was right - he did not have an impressive start to the season, was patently unfit, was playing poorly and had not scored - so there was every reason to question his ability to step up to the next level. In context the OP was aright to ask the question and does not make the OP guilty of treason. However since December holts form has been inspirational and deserves all the credit he has got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
