It’s Walker’s lack of effort that really gets me, something which can’t really be aimed at Marquis. We’ve really been let down by our crossing, corners and free kicks. Curtis, Harness, Tunnicliffe and even Jacobs have been incapable of delivering more than about 1 good cross in 5. With Walker I would love to see those Premier type stats of how far he runs, how fast, headers won, tackles won, dribbles won etc. I’m sure it would make really depressing reading. Hirst is no Messi but he certainly makes things happen and puts in 100% effort all game every game. For that reason alone yesterday, playing Walker (all game!) instead of Hirst I cannot trust Cowley’s judgement again. As someone else has said he had several months to build a squad and yet we seem to have less players of our own than ever. Please can we get in a manager who can get his players behind him and start bringing back some hope and expectation to the supporters.
