    How could you, I or anybody else possibly gauge that though wi art knowing inside information?
    Jon Stead, Disco and Hourihane sit on the bench alongside Clarke every game. I ent a clue which coach does what, or how they are doing in their respective roles. Have you mate?

    Well I haven't seen anything improve from set pieces this season and Hourihane has had that role since he came back .

    Just read a stat saying that our set pieces contribute to 35% of our goals so far this season. That is up 15% on last seasons stats.
    That is the attacking aspect of set plays.

    I can't find any stats on defensive set plays and our success of keeping the opposition out.

    I'm struggling to buy in to this and I'll be honest enough to admit it .

    I've no problem with Connor Hourihane per se but I don't like the politics behind it , I take exception to a bunch of foreign feck up merchants thinking they can pull the wool over the eyes of fans of this club .

    It leaves a nasty taste for me personally .

    Maybe in years to come.
    Definitely not now.
