Palmer does look decent but definitely not worth the reported wages.
Click to expand...

His reported wages are high, for us, but below average for this level.

That's where we are at.

You do realise that the top 4 leagues in England are made up of roughly 40% black players?

Not sure what this statistic has to do with anything but yes I am aware football in general can spot talent no matter their background.

The point is we are looking like relegation fodder - to blindly ignore that and Keep pretending we are better than the opposition is total nonsense

1 in 10 isn’t a fluke

In fairness, I agree with the sentiment. We can "be the better team" all we want, but ultimately we need to put points on the board which we simply aren't doing.

Millwall, Hull, Brum and Bristol City are some examples.

No, I'm using it as an example. JCH was a decent player but we didn't play a style that suited him. He went to a team that did and took off. It could be the same for Palmer. He obviously has talent.

Just because players aren't judged more harshly by coaches and people who understand the game doesn't mean they aren't by the average Joe.

In the 11/12 season we gave up 27 points from winning positions and lost most games by a single goal. That was a squad good enough to stay up but led by an idiot manager. This is a skeleton squad led by a decent manager.

Will lead to the same outcome barring reinforcements in January

Just a terrible game of football. We didn’t test their goalie and they didn’t taste ours apart from the goal. Game deserved a 0-0

I'd say both dabo and him are our most harshly judged players in the squad at the moment. I though both had very good games today.

a tree stump has a better first touch than Palmer, probably moves more too

It gets to the point where you just can't fix stupid and I have reached that point with you today. Palmer can be anything he wants he has the talent. So far he is showing a lot of good stuff. He needs to work on his fitness and keep his confidence up. If he does he will make you eat your words simple as.

I'd say we had two good spells of pressure, one in the first half and one in the second yes.

Palmer can do anything he wants? Late England call up for the World Cup perhaps? You're actually quite entertaining.

Well people are just simply in favour of Palmer aren’t they because I’ve seen no mention of skin colour when Walker gets slagged off.
