Just been reading some 13 pages of knowledgeable comments from march 2017 under the title Harrison too many chances.Just as well DC was manager and not most of those posting including a large number still posting the same sort of opinions about current players.Seems some people never learn,Think you need to go back to page 187.Just a thought

Tell me, what makes you any different?... I will start the ball rolling and be as dispassionate as I can Slocombe 5 distributions poor why keeping kicking long when we aren't winning the ball Clarke 5 steady but that's about it apart from the cRoss for the goal Lockyer 4 not convincing Broadbent 6 best of the defence but still a mistake waiting to happen Craig 3 no comment Rodman 5 bit of a curates egg performance Upton 4 not sure what he brings to the party Clarke 6 at least he looked like he cares Sercombe 5 minimal contribution and passing awful Bennett. 6 busy but too intricate Payne 7 not good in the air but tried hard and scored |

To be fair, us fans can only comment based on 1st team performances, whereas the manager spends all week working with them and should know more about their potential than us. Didn't DC sent Harrison on loan to Hartlepool?
There are plenty of other players the fans have been right about though
Don't see the point of all this dragging up comments from threads going years back to single people out. Happens too often and it's pointless imo.

I thought that Ellis asked to go on loan to get some first team game time. Nice to see him acknowledged by Harry and Meghan when naming the royal baby - Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. |

Yes and I later admitted I was wrong on both counts but I noticed a fair number from you telling us he was only fit for thexample conference |

Don’t throw stones in glass houses springs to mind OP. Never have I said about any player that he should leave or be told to go.especially a young player because they develop differently and you can finish with egg on your face as a number of curent posters have |

Back in 2003, I wrote in an essay for school that I hoped "by 2020 we'd be riding flying cars".
Mind calling the teacher and getting that essay for me so that you can call me out on it too?

Ellis was a strange one because many could see his potential but he never seemed to kick on and progress season after season, until suddenly it all clicked and his performances became more consistent. You cant blame fans for having doubts over whether he would be good enough, as for most of his rovers career, apart from sub appearances, he wasn't good enough. I would welcome him back but that's more to do with the fact he is better than Nichols and Reilly more than him being a great player.

DC and Mansell saved that boy's career. Turned him from a troublemaking youngster into a proper super sub and then into a professional. He's doing fine now, thankfully. Wouldn't want to see him and Shaq Hunter playing together at Isthmian League 2 or whatever. |
