hodgie1989 added 11:21 - May 21 how can Carson get in the squad for the Holland after having rarely played for town this season. I do rate him and feel he should get more games, obviously the Ireland manager has seen something which Jewell hasn't

still not sure about him - appreciate we haven't seen much of him but imo seems to have the tendancy to run around like a headless chicken, wandering out of position {could that be the basis for a song - chicken/positon :)} However given that he only get a few mins to prove himself perhaps he feels its the best way to make an impression.

Hope to see more of him next season so we can all judge better

Talbs77 added 20:21 - May 21 Should have played a lot more games last season. Got a knack of scoring goals, would like to see him playing more next season along with hyam, but I bet he doesn't which is my one criticism of PJ.
