Masbroughstreet, didn't he come on as a sub during the pre season match against the Blades? If so, what a unit indeed.
I seem to recall this tall well built young lad who looked a right handful who battled well against the Blades back line, especially when it came to corners. I often wondered who it was and where he is now.
Thing is, some say don't blood them too young you'll burn them out and dampen their love for the game if they don't score as a forward and only see defeat after defeat, load of crap! How many young players were blooded because those that know their football chose to use their enthusiasm, no fear complex, and wanting to PLAY for the badge.
If it's who I think it is then give him a game or two, we're down, we've seen back to back 5-0 defeats so what's the difference if it happens again?. Given what our 'supposed' centre forwards offer of late what's to lose? It also gives Richardson a chance to see him play a game at a higher level.
