| Quote: Leyther_Matt "Such a sound logic you've got there
Matt, the only Logic I have is that other teams are certainly glad that they invested in more talented half backs.
He doesn't seem to have aided the introduction of our young inexperienced half backs into the first team either.
These lads are earning rave reviews in the reserves and playing with confidence.
Look at Ridyard today who had a good game and played with confidence. When Watson is in the team with him Ridyard doesn't look half as confident . Same thing happened with Hemmingway who eventually had the bottle to take responsibility from Watson and started to show that he too was a decent YOUNG player.

And for the other 95% of the games, who's the one who's been carrying us?

What? Towards relegation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A decent half back with plenty of attitude and guile would have got our young lads performing by using his experience. Watson offers nothing !

Sorry mate but you have a totally different view on Watsons contribution than I have.
Like I have said but for a couple of times when he has been wound up Watson really has done nothing.
I can't recall a game where he has taken a game by the scruff of its neck and put us on the front foot. Look at the other teams in this league and they all have halves that regularly show this ability.

| Anyway, back on topic. Well played today Martin. Hope your confidence is carried forward to the next game and be a bit more cocky with it to show us all your true potential.

Matt, arguing will get us nowhere as we have differing opinions. I really hope that Ridyard can show everyone just how good he can be next week.

Fair enough mate. Thought Riddy has been excellent these past two weeks, as I mentioned earlier in the thread, but next week is going to be a powderkeg.
Dare I say it, we could do with Watson to share some responsibility at half-back

| Under the guidance of Millward, Martin has the potential to be one of the best. His kicking is phenominal, and he has a quick brain. I hope the club keep hold of him.

Agreed. He does show some good touches and, in all fairness to him, this season was meant to be a learning process. Instead he has been thrown in at the deep end and should come out of this better for the experience.
