Let’s face it, he’s no scapegoat, he’s just not very good.
He’s limited and average in pretty much everything he does and in such a key position we just can’t afford a player lacking in so much quality.
He’s played over 100 games for us now and has had a good run in the team and has proved to be sub-standard. No excuses now, he needs to be took out of the firing line.
It’s not his fault, I’m sure he’s a good lad and I’d be made up if he proved me wrong but we’ll struggle to win anything while he’s a regular in our side.
Buck stops with Price and the club on this for me though. He wasn’t the answer last year, so what made us think he would be now? Should’ve gone out there pre-season and replaced Brown when we had the chance.
Nobody was available though were they, at that stage of a season it is stupid for any club to release even a back up halfback if he is half decent as they will need him in case their first choice gets injured. The only players we could have signed would have been unsigned cast offs. Can you imagine how people would have viewed it if a home grown lad like Patton had been sitting on the bench all year while we were watching some cast off potter about being garbage.
Anyway....I bet we never thought we'd say this but we would have been a stronger side if Tyrone Roberts was still here.
