I think we could all see what he was doing with Crooks, but it was obvious to us that it was like watching a baby giraffe run about up front after about half an hour whereas it took Coley a month to see it because he was playing favourites or he was forced into playing him by the terms of the loan deal.
The lad played for Hartlepool at the Crown in Stanley's 3-1 win back in October and skied one chance over the Clayton End from 12 yards and put another out for a throw-in from a similar range. If that wasn't indication enough that he wasn't a striker then Christ knows what Coley was waiting to see.
Interestingly, reports from Huddersfield have him down as a central midfielder or a central defender, so maybe he is a decent player if he's put in the right position but we'll never know from his time at Stanley.
