IMO Ellis can be a massive player, but something is not right. Body language is too negative and he's on the floor more than on his feet. How many times have we seen players with natural talent fail while those with not so much, but work very hard, succeed? Ellis has to realise that he cant rely on skill alone, he has to work and that is why DC is signing players on with the right mentality. If Ellis had the attitude of Stuart Sinclair he would be in the Prem.

Sitting on the fence then as usual? No just stating facts as usual. Taylor has a Widdle poor return from games played. Harrison has a decent one. Abso bloody lutely ! So why when we are scoring less than the Team at the bottom of the League does DC persist with failure up front !

So why when we are scoring less than the Team at the bottom of the League does DC persist with failure up front ! We're second in the league and Taylor has started most of our games. He did drop Taylor to the bench a couple of weeks ago we were sh** - he brought him on - we played well and won. As fans we always want to be entertained and see lots of goals. A manager doesn't care about anything other than promotion and we're second in the league.

Darell Clarke doesn't care if he can turn the minds of the minority who want him out the only thing he cares about is succeeding and the league table doesn't lie. We have been the 2nd best team in the division up to this point with his tactics and his players, his way.
I think he deserves some credit and he is getting that from the majority who can see that at last after years of uninterested players and managers we now have a solid squad and base to work with who care and work hard to bring this club forward. Matt Taylor has been an integral part of that transformation this season.

Just to let you know we have bought Blisset and have Wall and Goldberg on loan. In other words we havent 'persisted with failure up front'

I am not a get DC out fan. I said we had to give him 25 games before we can properly judge. We are not losing games 1 in 18 is much better than we have had for years. We are however drawing games we should be winning. A striker who can take his chances would change that. To win this league we need to win 28 - 31 games. After that we are needing to make the playoffs. If Teams below win their games in hand we could be out of those. If Harrison is not in DCs plans, let the Lad go to a club that wants to score goals and can nurture his skills !

Interesting that none of the idiots slating Taylor responded to my comment that we won and scored loads on Saturday without him starting.
Ellis Harrison has been a lot worse than Taylor in longer periods of time. Fact. I'm sorry but its the truth. I hope Ellis turns good but if you think that because you believe our current strikers aren't the answer that Ellis is you aren't the best judge of character.

Tbh, you are coming across as Mr High and Mighty lately. I also don't appreciate your "Idiots" comment, those "Idiots" as you call them are fellow Gasheads, you may not agree with them but they are allowed an opinion. After the shambles on here of a few weeks ago i thought the "Attack the post not the poster" thing was agreed. Not attacking you, but others are allowed their thoughts and believe it or not others share some of those thoughts.

I'm out of line but it is annoying trying to defend yourself like I had to last week and trying to defend a manager/players who have got us to second. I shouldn't get frustrated on a forum though, so think it's time I give it a break.

You are one of the more respected posters on here and I actually could see where you were coming from. Don't let the moaners drag you down fella.

I posted a courteous observation and HJR replied respectfully, yes he is a good poster but was obviously getting uptight, and don't you dare come the holier than thou with me! Your post is the most ironic ever posted, you have "Driven off the forum" more than anyone....Now that is a FACT (as you seem to like to deal in them, so much)

This is a decent forum member, there was no reason for you to butt in and start moaning.
