I posted on here a month or so ago that several senior players had questioned MA on his lack of fitness work in training, citing that for our then habit of conceeding late goals.

Ut doesn't seem like anything has changed.

Unforgivably negligent if true.

It might have been telling he avoided answering the question about fitness this week, when one would expected him quoting data from tests of the players to refute this.

Bring back Shinner. Seriously. The squad seemed really fit under him. MA is trying to do too much himself. Including the walk out tunes. Delegate and concentrate on the things that matter.

Shinner didn't want to come back.

(can't blame him either!)

I also wonder if we're underestimating how disruptive Whitbread's illness was, and how much it continues to be?

MA's been in football long enough to recognise and understand the importance of fitness training, surely??

Maybe it's something his deputies look after and he's spreading himself a bit too thinly to compensate as mentioned above??

Half of these old bangers and crocks are beyond ever getting fit. Just more abysmal recruitment. You wouldn’t see Aiden o’Brien down at the knackers yard.

Someone seriously needs to contact Shinner and beg him to return.

[Rudeboy spireite]

I would never let him play for the club again, not only a crap player but he holds fans in disdain too, in my opinion that is

You’re not on your own,he thinks he’s the dogs dangly bits but in reality he’s dog poo.
I can only recall one decent half out of him and that was at The Jeremy Kyle stadium second half.

The last of the disastrous Caldwell/Branston crop not to be out the door/listed. Surely he's next?

Hope so mate

The only really decent game I saw BW play was AGAINST us for Burton when he scored a stunning winning goal. Doesn't look like the same player to me.

Funny isn't it? JBW is one of 16 players in the England C squad.

Paul Fairclough may just have been around long enough to be a decent judge.

"You don't know what you're doing," echoes really well for a reason.

Managers have been known to get it wrong,I wonder how many times PF has seen him play.

I think a number of us know the chap who will have been watching JBW and recommended him for England C. And if we see him, we will be asking what was his thinking.
Edit:
The good news maybe that other clubs note the call up and beat a path to our door to sign him at the next opportunity. In fact is it all a cunning plan?

A fully fledged international now, should take his market value up to a free transfer.

Or maybe an endorsement that JBW has now found his level.
