I think if he plays Houghton for 80 minutes regardless of the result questions will need to be asked of Hodgson coaching abilities. Surely when we are up against 2 very good and pacy hookers we are having joey interchanging with Houghton at 9

On the other hand he might

Tbf thought Balmforth would have been in the 17

The weather’s going to be hot too when we play. Rotation will be essential.

Shaul?

To be honest, I heard similar that players aren’t convinced by him.

Not just the ones you think as well. Pressure will be on him to deliver soon I reckon.

Who every is coach some arnt gonna like them. When Radford was here was the same. Powell at wires. Hodgson trying to get FC on the right track. He's bound to put noses out

You got me going off topic now you swine lol

Not a massive fan of Hodgson

But the players are 100% the problem

I was told there's a few .

Saw the 21-man lists earlier.

Had visions of McGuire and Hodgson playing egg-bacon to make up the last few places in their squads. I assume that reference makes sense outside just those who played coats for goalposts football on Gillshill Primary playground during the ‘81-‘82 season (school year)? If we’d kept the COHA, that should have been how they did the draft picks, imo.

Anyway, I digress. Scratch game, could be anything. Might even be fun, in a slightly bizarro kind of way. It’s weird that it is a mid-table clash but feels like it is being played among survivors of a shipwreck while they await rescue.
