I really don't want to personally have a go at Hird, he's probably a nice guy, donates money to charity, helps drowning kittens, visits old people who are lonely at christmas, etc etc. But....he's garbage at playing football. I honestly think he'd be fighting for a starting place if he were in the old conference team!His ball control - Kicking a ball to another person - is worse than mine!His positioning - He is mostly where he shouldn't be most of the match.His heading - He can't head a ball, ok, he's not in the Martis (or \"Mattress\" as he's now known amongst my little crowd) league of heading disasters, but he's still crap.His spirit - He never appears interested, bothered, I know this is a hard thing to gauge, but wandering around with a blank expression on his face doesn't convey \"spirit\" or \"fight\" to me...and probably not his team mates!When the injured players are well again I will breath a huge sigh of hope.....Friend excepted, but perhaps Hird and friend could move together to another club, who would appreciate their abilities, for first team football........like Scawsby.

Sam Hird has been quality the few games he's played this season.Some examples...Swansea at home - He was fantastic and won everything, Solid game and was unlucky to conceed.Portsmouth away - Well, First half he had Kanu in his pocket and overall had a great game, Couldn't really do much about either goal himself personally.Last night - Wasn't afraid to get stuck in. Kept Mcdonald quite until he went off, ok, lost him for the goal but every player was all over the place for that goal, and won everything he challenged for.I can't see how you can say he's \"garbage at football\" when he's clearly not.

Many thanks.........However, he's still pants.
Martis was better - as much as it might hurt some people to admit it. When you consider he was O.O.P. Trouble is he pulled up yet again around the 70 min mark. Why can't he see out 90 mins?
Look, whilst they're slagging off Sam or Shelts, they're leaving Willo alone.... oh then VJ wades in.
Is Sam Hird the new Mark Wilson?
