iron_stan 0 Posted February 11, 2014 am wondering if hughton knows the difference between left and right, i suspected he might be a bit thick but after an outstanding performance against man city bringing snodgrass back is pretty much confirming it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been a critic of Snodgrass but can see the sense in putting him in on this occasion - and Hughton is doing something that he has been criticised for not doing - using the squad.

Molly Windley 76 Posted February 11, 2014 Surfing through the fan forums its the Wet Spam fans who are most disappointed to see Snoddy`s name on the team sheet instead of Pilks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]I am agnostic on Snodgrass coming back, the ultra-cautious move would have been to drop Redmond and play Snodgrass and Pilkington, unless the latter is deemed not able to start two games in a row.

Guest Posted February 11, 2014 While Snodgrass may slow things down, hopefully he should help the team keep the ball a bit better than on Saturday. We shall see.If we score first, we''re in business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Badger 2,405 Posted February 11, 2014 Snodgrass is an very good player. It bemuses me that he is not appreciated for all he does. He is probably the main source of our chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted February 11, 2014 Solid start (touch wood). Redmond getting some joy on the left, setting up a half-chance for Hooper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gingerpele 0 Posted February 11, 2014 Hooper would have scored from that header before New Year.Ball just won''t go in for us at the moment, not even all that much poor finishing/final ball recently, plenty of good chances with bit of bad luck/good saves/blocks etc... Plus we''ve scored more disallowed goals in last 4/5 games than actual goals... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted February 11, 2014 [quote user="RollesbyCanary"]Hoopers control and first touch are world class[/quote]Bit of an exaggeration. For world class see Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta. Hooper isn''t anywhere near that class in terms of anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norwich or die tryin! 0 Posted February 11, 2014 Can''t understand the decision to bring snoddy back, would have stuck with pilks myself. We''ve had our 15 minutes now here come Westham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Catbeard The Old 0 Posted February 11, 2014 I really rate Turner but Yobo has looked a class above our other defenders again. He''ll struggle to get back into the side at this rate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
