Where’s he supposed to be going?

Post by: MachoMadness on April 13, 2021, 07:49:14 pm: Can't believe anyone who's seen him play could question his commitment. I rate him and think he'll be a massive, massive loss for us if he leaves.

Post by: GazLaz on April 13, 2021, 07:58:53 pm: He tries but he’s not that good. Not great at defending against good wingers. He was lucky to be allowed plenty of freedom to get forward in the inverted fullback role, no great end product from it though. Plenty of endeavour but Dave Kitson put me off gingers for life.

Well it would put the fire out.

Post by: Rovers91 on April 13, 2021, 08:37:42 pm: He puts the effort in definitely but hes awful defending, one on one put money on him getting beat everytime.

No-one has played for Rovers in a while now so no worries there!

Post by: Monkcaster_Rover on April 13, 2021, 10:57:25 pm: Gets murdered every time he's up against a decent winger.

If he is to clear off then I thank him for his commitment & wish him all the best.

Next.

Title: Re: Halliday
Post by: redandwhitearmy on April 13, 2021, 11:28:43 pm: Maybe he is just injured? It is pretty common that footballers can miss games with injuries.

Everybody thinks they're is a conspiracy behind every little thing.

In the last 7 games that Halliday played in, we conceded 9 goals against a set of teams mainly mid table or above

In the last 3 games that he's missed, we've conceded 9 goals, against 3 sides from the bottom 8. And frankly, it could have been a lot more than that. We could easily have shipped a dozen goals in the past two games alone.

Go figure.
