First I get slagged off for moaning about a player I have never named once in this thread.

Now Im a moaning old/middle aged c*nt because I wanted to get my point across.

Paid my £400, never give any of our players grief on the game, didn't boo Bailey, came on here and offer my opinion. If you don't like it, tough shit.

I Enjoyed our 10 man victory tonight and long may the victory streak continue.

Sorry roofer your entitled to your opinion and are coming in for some flak on this thread for it, but your last point is bang out of order and disgusting if you ask me.

Football is an 11 man sport and to say Hugill isn't part of the team when he clearly is I think is quite cowardly.

Your quick to forget he won us games against QPR and Birmingham and single handedly got us a point at Villa.
 
Let's just try to be balanced.

Personally I'm delighted that we won 5-0, but I also won't let it mask the fact that he was really, really poor again and would probably drop him on Saturday.

One can be pleased with the result whilst also accepting that he didn't play well.

Agree with other posters though about Beckford, he looked like a player ready to retire.

For years we have wanted someone who will try and play passes through the opposition defence, get onto balls at the edge of the box, score a few goals etc. but when we get one he gets hammered for giving the ball away to much and being weak in the tackle.

I've noticed that when there is a scramble for the ball DJ tends to come out of that scramble with the ball, but in the run of play he plays better when he has space, an "in your face" type of game does not seem to suit him.

I agree, although we don't have many choices to replace him.

He may need a break but the only alternative is Makienok, who I feel isn't as effective as Hugill in his overall play.

That's the problem and it needs addressing in the summer.

I don't think Grayson sees Makienok as a suitable replacement for Hugill because he isn't mobile enough to run the channels like Hugill does. There isn't enough competition for his place so even when he plays poorly for weeks on end he's still starting.

Like I said, it needs addressing in the summer, because a bit of competition will probably lead to him upping his game too.

And yet earlier in this thread you told me:

"Yes he is one of the reason's why we are no higher than 8th but there are 10 other players who walk onto the pitch who are responsible for that as well, you can't levy all of the praise or blame Hugills way just because he has missed chances."

So it's becoming clearer now - it's all a team effort when he's missing sitters, but he "singlehandedly" wins the points when he scores... 🙄

Agreed. Massive fan of Hugill but it looks like the long season is taking its toll slightly now. Makienok is ok for me if we're chasing a game in the last 15 minutes but he's nowhere near as mobile as Hugill, who's work outside of the box goes largely unnoticed.

Played better than Beckford. Can't believe he is still making appearances while Stevie May doesn't even make the squad, unbelievable.

Not much of an achievement though playing better than Beckford though lol.

Other than a farewell Deepdale sub appearance I'd be surprised if Beckford plays for us again tbh. He looks finished and we might as well try other people off the bench.

You're not a full shilling. Insinuating that playing Hugill is like playing with 10 men? Get a grip. Just shows how stupid you must be. If Hugill will never be short of one thing it's effort. Explain who else is going to hold the ball up top like Hugill does and get battered every game by the opposition defenders. Also I'm sure I saw him set up an early chance for us with a great pass to either Gallagher or McGeady. But you wouldn't have noticed that because you're so blinkered.

Sad.

Another glittering, star spangled performance.

Another 90 minutes, another blank, another game without a goal assist, but in fairness, he did seem to spend a lot of the 2nd half checking out the quality of grass on offer at Deepdale.

I wish he would start scoring, it's cost me £400 this season to watch this £2m worth of talent to parade his goods.

You've become a complete bore.
Hugill, without a doubt, is not playing at his best.
However, in my opinion, your constant berating of him negates your view.
Referring to him as a Buffoon is rather pathetic.
Harping on about spending £400 to watch him play is easily solved. STOP GOING!
Roofer is a well chosen name. All you do is slate!

That was a rather boring reply my friend.
Very buffoonish.
Telling me to stop going because I don't follow the herd.
And your poem does not rhyme.
 
I think roofer is aka Mick McCarthy and is trying to get Jordan on the cheap. A lot of football is confidence-just look how Callum Robinson played after he'd scored. Jordan just needs a goal imo, S G and staff obviously rate him as the best of our alternatives despite roofer being better qualified to judge !
 
£400 to watch McGeady though is surely value for money.

To comment on Hugill from last night’s unbelievable FIVE NIL WIN, he needs to work on his subtlety in backing into hisman. Too often once again last night, hegave away possession as his man and the whole ground could see he wasn’t goingto jump, or use his head. Higher qualitytarget men can jump and bring it down and either be fouled, or prevent his mangetting around him, and retain possession. He will only get better at this, and now he knows what type of strikerhe is, he can only improve this facet.

Yes, he should have hit the target in the opening 2minutes. Having just seen it back onsome highlights, it wasn’t a particularly tight angle so he probably shouldhave scored that.
He never got near scoring in the second half, yet wasstill putting the work in, and occupying Flint and Wright, allowing the quickerlads around him to create and score the goals.
Going to Leeds, I don’t know whether he should bebenched. I can’t make my mind up. Players often score against their old club though(Beckford).
 
Worked hard but nothing came off for him last night, look knackered in the second half.

Surprised he wasn't subbed to be honest, Makienok must be seriously pissed off.
 
Is this poster Roofer32 the idiot formerly known as Marsbar who stopped posting earlier this year after carrying on a similar vendetta against Grayson? If so it would explain a lot about someone who knows little !!
LOOK AT ME.

Agreed.

It makes you think where could we have been with a top top top striker.

Saying that Hugill did well for the first Robinson goal and you can't fault his effort.
