I agree with this squad

Fergi is in the 13 from what I've been told the 13 I've listed are as is.

About time Andy was given a go. It's OK to criticise him when he hasn't had a first team game for yonks and apparently doesn't play well. But why sign him for another 3 years and not play him in the 1st team? Doesn't make sense.....

Lot of things not making sense at moment Scott." Examiner" We know what went wrong, who does that remind you of ?

its been over 2 months since he played 1st team. This, in a team where we have been battered 3 times in the forward recently. It seems he is only getting a chance due to injuries to other players, as the coach says there is not much wrong. As you say, its not making a lot of sense.

Fergi having late fitness test,and Bruno may have been hurt in training.

After last week Fergie doesn't deserve a place. He was the worst player on the pitch.

Both Bruno and fergi out. Walker on bench.

Bruno & Fergi weren't missed,in fact I'd go as far as to say,Kirmit starting was the reason why this game was won.He didn't let the daft early crossing penalties bother him,just knuckled down to strong football.

I think we have been looking for an inspirational player to pull us out of this slump,and thought tonight Danny K was our man.

Relieved we won, but so we should against the Robins, no disrespect to them. A fair portion of our defence was still awful. The first and second HKR tries were a perfect example of that. But there were plenty more positives this time than in recent weeks. Honourable mentions....

1. Andy Raleigh - was great. Shored up defence, worked hard, ran strong, got good play the balls going. Well done Andy.

2. Graeme Horne - had a great game. His second score was a beauty! O.K. he made an absolute defensive howler when he showed Webster the touchline & got skinned but Grix should've made that tackle as well. Embarrassing but the only thing Horne did wrong all match. Great individual performance otherwise.

3. Luke Robinson - brilliant. Quick going forward and absolutely tireless in defence.

Both Eorl & Griff did well this week too...worked hard & got rewards from it. Fooey looked sharp & eager as well.

Slight reservation over Fairbank. The lad tried hard but doesn't seem strong enough yet. But he will be I think.

Will have to improve massively in defence to beat Saints though.

thought Wood looked good whilst he was on. Good to see Andy have a good game after 2 months out, same with Horne.

Agree with just about all of this, A mention for mcGilvray who seems to be making that kick inside a bit of a speciality. No wonder HKR want Hodgson, Fox looked really poor. Well done A Ralegh after so long out that was a good show.
