The defender has gone on loan to Weston Super Mare for a month's loan. Hopefully he'll get some game time.

You've got to feel for the lad

Being kept out the side by a bloke 17 years older

What's age got to do with it? Perhaps he's simply being kept out by somebody better. You yourself bemoan Cureton not being here any more, yet he'd be keeping out someone 20 years his junior. Would you be feeling sorry for them too?

No because Cureton is still one of the best strikers in the division

We don't have a decent centre half

That's not the point though is it? You're moaning about a much older player keeping him out - what about if that much older player is also much better? It's true we don't have a decent centre half, but who's to say Tillson isn't very much part of that group?

Just because you're younger doesn't automatically mean you should be picked ahead of an older player - perhaps Tillson is the worst of the bunch.

I agree - but again it goes back to this promise that we would have a young team made up from players we've brought through

Instead we play a 37 midfielder at centre half

Say one thing do another

With Credy in charge, the under 8s would take the field!

That's not the case though is it? Perhaps although you'd like a team full of youth perhaps they simply aren't good enough so the older members of the squad are chosen instead. It's not just say one thing, do another, there are circumstances too.

Excellent news for Jordan. I hope he does as well as Ollie Watkins has done (WSM have soared up the table since Ollie joined them).

He has been very loyal and helpful,by trailing round the country to sit on the bench as our defensive cover since a spell of (difficult) games (and fewer than I had thought) at the start of the season.

This will help show whether he's worth persevering with next season
