    Martyn Waghorn

    It’s an unfortunate fact for him, and I’m not saying he deserves stick for it, but one of the main reasons we don’t have many alternative options going forward is because Waghorn has spent most of the year injured, and the rest of the year not doing a great deal. Considering the amount of...

    Martyn Waghorn

    No, it was quite deliberate We all know O’Hare has trouble finishing. But given the huge contributions he makes elsewhere, to single him out for it seems like a…..choice. Waghorn, by contrast, is supposedly here to score goals. Maybe if he contributed elsewhere I’d be a bit kinder to him, but...

    Martyn Waghorn

    My point is that it’s irrelevant if O’Hare has missed more chances than Waghorn, because the former has been one of our best players this season while the latter has been stuck on the treatment table at great expense. The idea that it could ever be considered a wash between them, by any metric...

    Really? I think you’re underestimating how dreadful young players can fare, and how unforgiving fans can be. Besides, it’s almost certain that for now the best thing for Tavares’ career, at least in terms of reputation, is for him to never play and continue to rack up goals against Hull U23s...

    Martyn Waghorn

    In terms of contribution this season it’s laughable to even put Waghorn in the same conversation as O’Hare.

    I don’t think MR’s team selection should cater to your curiosity about bit part U23 players. He should play his best available team, and clearly Tavares doesn’t even come close.

    Going on holiday to New York and going to Hooters would be like going to Sicily and eating at Pizza Express.

    For the record, I love Hyam, Kelly and Shipley. Think it’s weird that people wouldn’t after the last five years.

    Why would we make a judgment on him based on a 15 minute cameo during a meaningless part of the game? Is that the only time Robins ever sees him play?

    Martyn Waghorn

    I find it bizarre that O’Hare - who has years of progress ahead of him, contributes all around the pitch, actually stays fit, and doesn’t even play as a striker - is routinely slated for missing one good chance a game. Whereas our highest paid striker who’s barely played all season comes on and...

    Eccles

    He’s such a tidy and composed player. He was given pretty much free rein in the first half yesterday because their young LWB didn’t seem to have a clue, but it was still impressive how much he got involved in an unfamiliar position. I think we played four different wing backs yesterday and he...

    He’s turbo-Ponticelli at this point. His legend only grows stronger with every game he doesn’t play, and with every time he runs really fast against Crewe U23s. Someone on here has already compared him to Wayne Rooney.

    Lot of bright performances, but Bidwell and Kane were awful.

    Since the start of the season? And then whenever he’s fully fit, which apparently is hardly ever.

    Yeah I’m definitely glad we’ve got Waghorn instead m8

    Martyn Waghorn

    How many attacking midfielders do you think we could have signed if we’d found someone else to pick up his wages instead of Walker’s last month? (It’s all hypothetical of course - there isn’t anyone who would take him on his current contract)
