Had a good game today against two tricky opponents in Romeo and Wallace.

Well done to the lad.

Seems to have settled in and started to find some consistency. He was up against 2 decent wingers today and coped well

Yes agreed, the lads done good.
Keep it going son

Thought he had his best game for us. Did not shirk a tackle and went in where the boots were flying. His attacking play was impressive and he was a constant danger. Well done lad.

Much better second half, first half his inability to retain possession did not help us as an attacking force.

First half he looked all over the place but muhc improved 2nd half.

I like him and I wish him all the best, but I just don't feel confident when he plays.

I think this guy deserves a mention. He seems to have been one to knock but a run of games has really settled him down. I donâ€™t think we miss Ferguson there at all. Gibbs is class but I think Conor deserves praise for the way he has now settled in.

The guy has improved and confidence has grown over the last few weeks, but he always seems to cut inside with the ball and so runs into congestion. Would be so much better if he could sometimes get around the outside of his direct opponent and get crosses in from near the dead ball line which would create more danger.

He's been very good of late, fair play to him for proving some of us wrong.

And me right.

Said just to wind Fritzl up.

gazberg · « **Reply #161 on:** February 13, 2020, 03:36:48 PM »

Also not a fan of his overall but played well recently.

You reckon he is better than Gibbs...there is nothing right about that

I think he actually defends better than Gibbs , not as good with the other stuff . Gibbs general basic defending is poor in my view .

frazzle · « **Reply #164 on:** February 13, 2020, 04:01:30 PM »

Not the weak link he once was and improving but for me Gibbs has been really good when heâ€™s played this season.

He's a better crosser of the ball than Gibbs but Gibbs does a lot of linking up down the left and has the more attacking impact.

give me townsend all day long .improving game by game .if gibbs gets back in how long will he last before injury again

zippyandbungle · « **Reply #167 on:** February 14, 2020, 11:16:18 AM »

Gives is a better footballer and would also be a strong voice out on the pitch, Townsend has generally stepped in and had some really good games.
When both fit, Gibbs starts

We wont know unless he starts when he is fit $:-\$

mulliganstired · « **Reply #169 on:** February 14, 2020, 11:52:53 AM »

I think it's Townsend's shirt to lose now for the next couple of games, doesn't sound like Gibbs is fully fit yet, so why risk needing to make an early sub.

gazberg · « **Reply #170 on:** February 15, 2020, 03:47:50 PM »

Not his biggest fan at all but he did well today and has been better overall recently.

chipperclark · « **Reply #171 on:** February 16, 2020, 10:53:14 PM »

Had Lolly in his "pocket"(pardon the pun)....he didn't give him an inch. His attacking support is also very good.
He has come on well the last 4 or 5 games...well done to him and he is winning the fans over after all his critics.

KingKoren · « **Reply #172 on:** February 16, 2020, 11:05:33 PM »

He never deserved the criticism he was receiving in the first place. He's playing very well and deserves his place in the team.

Chipper thanks for reminding me that Joe Lolley played, I had forgotten their star player

tommcneill · « **Reply #174 on:** February 17, 2020, 08:05:16 AM »

Since coming in and keeping his place he has improved massively. He has become a really important part of the side.

Heâ€™s come from lower league, has needed time to improve, heâ€™s done that.

If he keeps this level of improvement up he could become a really really good LB
