Fecking right Milton, what is all that about?
I’d extend that to the ovation Marquis got when he came off. Wtf were people clapping ffs?
I asked that question of a few of the clippers and got a load of bollox like ‘you can’t fault his effort’, or, hilariously, ‘he’s going through a barren spell’. Fecking long spell isn’t it?
If I went on I’d put in 100% effort but I’d still be totally ineffective .
The man is paid to score goals and he not only isn’t doing it, he isn’t looking like doing it (the occasional scuffed fluke aside of course). Why are people applauding failure?
The first time I saw Marquis play (away at Wycombe) I couldn't believe he was a footballer. He couldn't control, pass, head, anything. We were 1-0 down and hadn't had a shot on goal in 70 mins and then Pitman came on, immediately hit their bar with a great header and almost saved the game. January transfer window - Pitman would still do a better job, by far.
As for the Cowley's not having achieved a big turnaround in 30 games - we're impatient after years of not very much, but Alex Ferguson got about 5 times that 30 before he had any real impact on Manure (avoid impact with manure kids).
