Hirst is staying so ......

Another thought is that PW and the coaching staff observe him all week in training and make a decision on how much game time he's given based upon that.

Most of us don't see what they see

That's too obvious, it's better to invent conspiracy theories that make Warne look weak and incompetent.

Over the years many many many fantastic footballers have been let go by managers who deemed a player not good enough without even giving them a chance. Without actually giving him a run of games I, you or even our manager will not know the answer to the question of is he good enough or not.

True, but even they don't know how he would perform if given a full game.

Of course that’s true I’d be worried otherwise but doesn’t mean we can’t have an opinion on what we see does it?
Think I’ve already mentioned that Barker did say when Hirst came in that they don’t expect him to be ready to around January so hopefully we’ll get to see some more of Hirst soon.

Anyway it’s what they do on the pitch and getting the points that matters surely

That sounds a reasonable suggestion. But unlikely to gain much support on here.

Here's a thought, maybe Hirst gives Warne less earache than Smith or Vas when left out of the starting lineup ?

Nice guys don't like confrontation

Or he could be not as good as smith and vas

[daveemiller]

Not done enough when he has started or came off the bench to deserve a starting berth. I think you could make an argument that he has been given enough chances already, can't see the argument that we've done the lad a disservice. There is talent there but he needs his first goal badly - as does Vass. No question for me, if ladapo and smith are fit, they start. If we go one up top then pick between them.

Notice over at Bramhall Lane Billy Sharp isn't getting a game. So he's crap then?
