Yes, 88th minute, plus five minutes stoppage time so, ok, 7 minutes, not 10.
I don't think many people want him starting games but that doesn't mean he can't do a useful job for us off the bench.
It's clear from this interview that T&S see him as a valuable squad member with a role to play. Also that they want Rowe to buck his ideas up a bit.

in those 16 games he scored twice and assisted three times. no one assisted more and was joint top scorer in that time. As a deep playmaker he played well and certainly fit the "best player" category as @Doodle stated.Keefly Bantam, Bronco and Doodle like this. -

He's a forward player who hasn't scored enough and hasn't created very much either. He's not quick and he's not physical so apart from experience and the odd bit of skill I'm really struggling to understand what made him so outstanding as to be nominated as our "best player" by you?
Mind you, if you're giving professional athletes credit for "putting in a shift" then your bar definitely needs raising at least a few notches.Goose and JudgeMental like this. -

He's probably got a similar role in the squad to Donaldson whereby he'll be used sparingly and to fill gaps but once the season is over I fully expect us to upgrade.Goose and BradfordBanter like this. -

Donaldson shouldn't be compared to DMH, thats an insult to what has been a good career. Even though he has offered little since his injury last season, its still more than DMH ever did.
However, I'm very much in the camp that he should only be used as a last resort, and by that I mean only as a late sub. Even with no strikers fit, T&S chose Vernam upfront over him so I think they're of the same opinion.
Contrary to some, I've always thought his hold up play was pants, although he's good at winning free kicks, which is why he's suited to coming on to see games out. That and he can help defend set pieces because we're not the biggest of sides.
He has his values, but in no way should we be contemplating starting him again this season.Goose and Faithful Bantam like this. -

I'm the most vocal when it comes to players not performing or not giving their all for a team.
They are well paid and well trained so they totally deserve any flack from supporters.
On these 2 though there's some absolute bollocks been written on here.
Clarkes last full match before injury he was close to being mom.
Tirelessly working back to help out FCD, providing quality touches and good set pieces.
Donaldson isn't a lone striker and isn't a target man like Stuart tried to play him.
On Saturday we were losing the ball in the opposition half on plenty of occasions until Clayton and Stevens to some effect, came on.
They helped us see out a vital victory, as Clayton did against Morecambe.
Quite clearly as every bloody season, some just want to stick knives into players who out of all the squad, have the club, the local area and the supporters close at heart.
Stuart, Hanson, Lawn and Rhodes, and now it's Clarke and Donaldson.

Guthrie has scored 0 in 8 for Port Vale. That’s 0 in 18 combined with his tenure with us.
