Played the best I have ever seen him.

I wonder if thewlis' contract offer of a pork pie and a packet of smarties is now thought of as being a mistake

Connor has been messed about by Anderson from each game to the next and his development has suffered for it so I'd put the blame on his going squarely on his shoulders

Re: FB : Thu Jun 30, 2016 9:13 pm  

Connor is a young lad who's been getting game time most 20 yr olds would be glad of!!
Time for him to change his mind yet- a new coach might swing it- after all he hasn't signed anything.

If Connor can be kept he must! His different attacking choices and options from the back was spot on and some good sweeping play!

Re: FB : Thu Jun 30, 2016 10:25 pm  

At last, how many times have I said Conner should play FB and got shot down with comments like, "why he's not a FB" and "why what have you got against Grix"
Had a cracking game now we need our new coach to get him to change his mind.

That would be ideal but I have the suspicion that, given recent events, any hope of holding on to Connor would be torpedoed by a vengeful Thewliss......

That is the worry but performances like tonight won't do our chances of a word in his ear from Ken any harm?

We do have a great opinion of him, maybe I'm a bit biased because I know the guy as I'm really good mates of an ex coach of his. He can be an handful and unpredictable but surely that can be a good thing for a playmaker?
