oldbarrackdan added 20:41 - Mar 22 McAuley on the whole has been superb since being partnered with Damo. He deserves some recognition. If we could score a few more goals maybe we wouldn't be in bottom half mediocrity.

JayITFC added 21:20 - Mar 22 People soon changed their tune on Gareth! Maybe they'd do the same about Wrighty given half a dozen games. Won't happen though. He'll be gone come the summer and never play for this club again.

TractorMan added 22:12 - Mar 22 The last 3 games home games he has been superb and only great saves from the keeper have stopped him scoring at least 4 times. I can see his luck turning tomorrow. Murphy (twice), McCauley and Walters - 4-1 Town..... :)

keebs_itfc added 23:59 - Mar 22 has played very solidly for 2/3 of the season, did wat he did last year, took him a while to get into it, hopefully not next year!

nobrain added 08:47 - Mar 23 I do like Mac - if only he could get better direction on his clearing headers - and was a quicker.... ...but then he'd probably be playing in the Premiership, rather than for us. Well done.

muhrensleftfoot added 10:13 - Mar 23 Great player. He just needs to start the season a bit better. last season he was poor for the first few games, then ended up being one of our best performers. This season is a carbon copy

bluelass7 added 13:45 - Mar 23 I think we should still make a move for Dazza (Ambrose). Come on Keano, have him in as the loan player til end of season and then buy him.
