v Blackburn

[Geoff Parkstone]

relegation? In Wazzer we trust!

Take 9 points away from us though, and it would look more of a mess - although with the league having a go at SWed, but not us, yet, Id expect we may get away with it,otherwise they would maybe have announced sanctions simultaneously

Jack Marriott is not a good striker at this level, he's not going to get the space and time he got in league 1, and he can only do it when the team is putting it on a plate for him 4 or 5 times a game

He's cack and you know it mista

Lazy as well by all accounts

Sounds daft but he'd probably have more success in forests team, they play a way more suited to his style, but you can't accomadate a player like Marriott if you don't play a quick direct style.

And even then he's not all that

Can’t pretend to know what the problem with Marriott is...but I do know this...he wasn’t ‘lazy’ when he was at Peterborough and he looked like one of Derby’s best recent acquisitions for about three months last season until he was injured, away against Stoke I think, last season.
Not sure what’s gone wrong since but if the team were setting him up ‘4 or 5 times a game’ and he was taking even half those chances I’d be happy.
Facts are...strikers thrive on confidence and very little is being set up for the front men this season, he looked the real deal at Elland Road in the play offs and what I really don’t understand is you now slagging him off when you’ve been repeatedly critical of Lampard leaving him out of the Wembley starting line up.
