Why oh why is Simon Grayson sticking with the buffoon for the whole game?

He had another shocker today. In 90 minutes he controlled the ball and found his own player once.

Can't head it, can't tackle, doesn't link up play, squanders chances, struggles to stay on his feet. He has not scored in months. In fact he does not even look like scoring!!

He wasn't alone today, but when you have two other strikers sat on the bench, it makes you wonder why SG fails to freshen things up??

DROP THE BUFFOON!!!

Hugills marker played well today but I agree he has been poor recently and his finishing is dire.

According to Dave Seddon on Twitter:

"DJ missed PNE's game after his partner went into labour last night. Makienok out having gone back to Denmark for family reasons".

Back in Denmark for personal reasons according to Dave Seddon. He also said Johnson's partner went into labour last night which is why he wasn't in the 18.

As for the OP it's harsh and a bit over the top but I do think we need a better main forward who plays 35+ games than Hugill if we seriously want to become a top 6 outfit. At times it's very obvious he's playing well above his skill set.
 
Drop roofer he's rubbish. Hugill had the beating of his marker every time early in the match. His supply dried up as they controlled midfield and then he was living off scraps. All teams benefit from a target man and Jordan is ours, who else is going to lead the line?
 
Hugill has had a run of poor games recently and I would have given Beckford a run out. That said,, to call him a buffoon is laughable. He owes us nothing, having worked his socks off, battered opposition defences and scored a few goals as well. No team can afford 11 Champagne Charles, they need the likes of Hugill but he's now looking tired and should be rested IMHO.

What a load of crap you have written. You must be eating your own shit. Hugill is a target man and he leads the line better than any other player we have.
 
At times I thought he was better than I remembered. However for us to progress I do think he is a squad player and not someone I'd want leading the line week in week out.

When chasing a game and in recent games when needing a winner / equaliser I am a little unsure if Grayson has any faith left in Beckford and none at all in May.

Jesus wept. What a stupid post. Think you must have been on the same stuff as the person who gave Clarke mom.
 
Hugill has run his socks off all season for us & weighed in with a few goals, he's good at holding the ball up to bring others in to play unfortunately we don't have players that run past the last man. He's scored more goals at this level than joe garner ever threatened to, so get off his back. Tell me what Gallagher brings to the team nowadays? We've done better without him recently, corners are very poor freecicks hit & miss & always shirks a tackle
 
Call him what you like but HUGILL always gives 100% and you cant ask more than that.

yes his finishing is woeful at times but he has chipped in with goals and he is an asset. whether he can cut it at this level I don't know but there are others around him who don't perform so we need to get off his back.

we were collectively poor today and that was a point won
 
My thread earlier this season asking if Ben Pearson may have ADHD was deleted by mods, however open insults of our players is apparently acceptable? Go figure!

Wow - I wanted to respond with some aggressive criticism of your intellect but then I thought instead of me stooping to that level, I'd just make some considered points:-

1. I disagree with you calling our current main striker a buffoon - it's disappointing that you feel the need to share your glass-half-empty world as a new thread
2. I thought his control, link up play and heading ability was at times excellent (especially in first 15 minutes)
3. I agree that it was not his best all round game, but I thought Forest defenders nullified him well
4. Have a nice evening, fellow PNE fan, and I challenge you to point out the positives of our main striker after next Tuesdays match on here please?
 
Very unfair criticism. Yes he didn't have a great game but he always works hard for the team. Negative comments do no favours for anyone.
