    Furlong and Townsend have been consistently poor and seems the view at away games too and not just this forum. TGH needs an opportunity and he could become a great young player. Needs to start against Coventry!
    I think Furlong and Townsend have been great for us overall. Why do you think their form has dropped?

    Roy Keane use to say it is only consistency over the full season will get you a chance to win anything.
    He talked about one season where utd went I think it was 16 games unbeaten but still one nothing.
    Personally, I think too much emphasis is put on having a good game. After that game you can have a bad game but it's ok cause you played well before.
    Consistency is a discipline that takes time to develop. It can't be learned after a few decent games....quite a few players don't get that.But I think money turns heads as well...if you are on a very good wage and then add in bonuses, it's pure jam for mediocre players today.
