With all the ( very tedious ) Smith and Eastwood debates of late , I'm getting confused now as to who is 'IN FAVOUR' and who is 'OUT'.
There have been pro and con comments about everyone of our squad , which is fine as it's all about opinions.
I've listed some below ( some slightly tongue in cheek , but all with an element of truth ) , so just wanted to know what the general view was about our squad.


SMITH : Good shot stopper / Appalling at crosses
BENTLEY : Will be good in the future / Too young now
CLOHESSY : Mr Consistency / Had a below par game recently
BARKER : New lease of life at LB / Legs have gone
PROSSER : Much improved / Not good at LB
CRESSWELL : Player of the season / Struggled recently a few times
PHILLIPS : Player of the Year / Injury prone
STRAKER : Good going forward / Poor defensively
LEONARD : Mr Utility / Mr Anonymous
SPICER : Looks go on the ball / Too lightweight
TIMLIN : Runs all day / Not the same since he signed
LAIRD : Just what we need / Doesn't do much
WOODYARD : Give him some games / Too young now
MKANDAWIRE : Does a great job / Hardly noticed against Brentford ( :winking: )
HURST : Great number of assists / Not as good as Hall for assists
MARTIN : Good left foot / Doesn't do enough
CORR : Great he's back / Can't last the pace
TOMLIN : Sensational this season / Not scored recently
ASSOMBALONGA : Different class / Lost it recently
EASTWOOD : The greatest / Overweight , unfit and not what he was
HARRIS : Great vision / Waste of money
BENYON : Give him a chance / Worst signing ever
FRENCHMAN : Bring him back to save our season / Burn him !

Bolded
players should be sent packing.

I couldn't be bothered to re-state my opinions, so just deleted as applicable.

I think Hurst may beat Hall for assists this season. How many did Hall get last year ?

Can't recall how many Hall got , but yes I think you may be right in that Hurst may beat it.
Doesn't stop some people using an ex-players achievements though to be negative about a new guy :sad:

According to football-league.co.uk, Hurst has 13 so far and Hall got 19 last season. Going to be close though!

Hurst seems to be quite popular though.

Have to say losing Hall was a disaster, which has certainly been avoided by Hurst's performances. Great signing.

You would have thought so , but East Reds still manage to churn out a few who get on his back the moment a pass doesn't go as intended.
I think his partnership with Clohessy is one of our strong attacking points.
