    Harrogate played last night and Foulds wasn’t in the starting XI or on the bench.

    Except for weak throw ins what did he do wrong exactly? I wish someone would point it out.
    How many times did he get o
    Why, he’s a brilliant fullback according to some?

    Poor throws for sure Dave but legal, unlike the one handed Stevenage thrower.

    While you're on Kev, what did you think of Bola? Big upgrade on Foulds? (and yes I know it was only one game)

    The modern game wants more from a full back!

    More importantly MH wants more from a full back. He did seem reluctant to make a run when he gave the ball to Wright who often had his back to goal and two men on him and needed that Meredith type of run outside to give him an option or take one of his markers away. Granted, defensively he was fairly sound but he didn't seem able to get beyond the line often enough. Shame, because he could put a decent ball in at times

    My problem with Matty was he regressed. Pure and simple Rod .

    Darby used to get a nose bleed when he crossed the halfway line. I think he only ever did it when he came to clap us at Wembley v Millwall, after the final whistle.

    On one game no one knows for sure. Other than one lapse at the back post, he had a steady and away game. However multiple posters , me included for many weeks , have said he’s regressed and not “ kicked on “ in footballing terms since Ridehalgh’s injury/ illness. We have missed Ridehalgh big style if truth be known because he could certainly whip a cross in and he supported his wide man on the overlap. Matty started off well, but as said earlier it was almost like he couldn’t get beyond the halfway line in his last 10 or so games. I don’t get this “ maybe he’s been told not to” when the full back on the opposite side does exactly that. As I said earlier, I’m certain that the coaching team feel the same, otherwise why get someone else in and not stand in the way of Marty’s request to go out on loan “because he wasn’t willing to fight for his place” . Why would Hughes make up such a statement?
    Odd for sure , clearly there is a background I can’t think of anything else?
