Good to see you lot on the pitch at half-time, well done on all those promotions and good luck this season.

You in the right thread matey?

[lildave3]

Keep him in I say.

[Maybes]

Martin, one league and one cup game.

Hobbs, a whole pre season.

I think its just going a bit far when saying we should be buying him after hes only featured on a few outings. He had a few moments today when he got himself into a bit of trouble.

[Staf]

Thought he had a pretty solid game, looked good in the air and looked very comanding. I thought some of his kicks where very dodgy but overall i thought he had a good game.

he was calling us a bunch of women ...

fair enough but he is still far less likely to make a game changing blunder then Henderson, or at least I'm less fearful of it then when Henderson plays

I agree.

[Jimmy]

I agree.

which is why I said we should get him, as he is better then what we have (under permanent contract)

But what about when he went for that deep cross that he missed by a mile and on another day could have been turned in..... that could have changed the game if the tranmere player hadnt mis-cued his shot.

[davieG]

The main advantage of Martin over Henderson is that he throws the ball more often than he hoofs it, Henderson is 99% hoooooooooooof!!!!

We need a song like the Lloyd Dyer one for him

What song you got for lloyd dyer? we used to sing "lloyd dyer my lord lloyd dyer "

or posh spice is a slapper..... etc

[The Reverend]

I didnt think he was that good. Certainly no better than Hendo. He even had one massive error today, when a cross came in, and he kicked 2 or 3 balls straight off the park, which isnt good enough. He is young, but hes no better than Hendo at the minute for me.

I agree

I am not convinced yet, but we'll see

A few nervous moments, but then I suppose he is young.

More of an Alnwick than a Fulop for me at the min.

Some people are suffering from new boy syndrome. There was no way Martin looked any better than Henderson. He hardly had a save of any note to make and his major contribution was the catching of a deep cross when under pressure. On the downside his kicking was school team standard.

I'd say that both have their respective advantages over the other but the whole package is similar - thus rotating them in the way that used to be fashionable is no bad thing.

I felt he offered a security of tenure that sometimes Hendo doesn't, his handling and reactions left me feeling more confident than Hendo does.

[davieG]

There's not a lot of difference to date except Martin throws the ball out and we retain possession more often than not adding a variety to our play Hendo hoofs it out we lose possession more often than note that swings if for me.

[Stig the Lawnmower]

I don't see how you can draw any conclusions about Martin - he's had nothing to do. to my mind the only really noticable points were throwing out - good, kicking out - bloody awful. I'll judge him when he's made a few saves.
