I have nothing against any player which gives 100%

john miles has not given 100% or anything near to it.

Lee McEvilly tries harder than John Miles IMO

The irony is, John Miles is probably one of the most skillful players in the squad - if only he could apply himself.

I have nothing against him - it just winds me up to see players in league 2 at smaller clubs not try. Especially one, who has seen and been around the top flight - its as if he is happy to settle for league 2 football.
One of the few levellers in this game is effort. The opposing team cant stop you closing down, making runs, putting in blocks and challenges etc.

Miles does very little of this.

I think its a fair criticism.

If stanley where in a smiliar position to Barcelona and had the luxury of a player not tracking back, working hard, closing down - then fine.
We are not.

Its a team game, and everyone must be committed.
