KTF!..

Totally agree about gifting them the goals but not about Russell being upto standard, he,s a young lad on loan hasn't really played much was asked to come in tonight for Butcher in a tense game for both sides and apart from his bad pass for the goal he showed some good touches got in some good forward positions and really should like a few others have scored, will go on
to have a good career somewhere good luck to the lad
.
And I hope he does Andy ... as I do for all the young Stanley players,
All I tried to say , quite kindly I thought, was that in my opinion based on what we have witnessed of his play so far, is that he is not up to League standards ... perhaps I should have added YET !.
Just a word here about John Coleman. Again in my opinion he has worked his wonders with a squad of Old timers, young hopefuls,
and those needing to develop their craft . Whilst doing this his team have accrued more points than perhaps few of us expected a few months ago which gives us the confidence to expect even greater things in the season to come.
So , at this moment I'm raising a rather large Bombay Blue and Tonic to John, Jimmy and all the backroom Staff.
