Super Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 In bringing on JET with a minute of stoppage time left? That game was crying out for a bit of magic IMO as I don't think we looked like scoring. Decent performance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickolas Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Dont you realise he's past it, doesnt try and is of no worth to the team?! 2 mins was all he could probably be arsed to do anyway. I expect him to ask to leave. Hes not a SC type of player so i fully expect him to be off before long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardy Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Fair point by the OP - exactly the type of game where I would have expected him to come on after 70 mins. Wilbs didn't have a great game tonight but still JET never got a look in. I can only imagine Cotts has decided JET has passed his best before date & will be looking to move him on.

edada Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Seemed a bit disrespectful to me and also gave the idiots behind me a chance to boo the guy that scored 20 goals last season including a screamer against the gas.

Swede Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Although it was a decent game I think Cotts opted for a safer option in going 4 at the back. I think we needed to change it with 20mins to go with JET instead of Wilbrahimovic who less face it wasn't getting any change out of the Ref with those two lumps trying to mount him at every opportunity. We could've done that & changed the whole outlook. I would've subbed Elliott for Freeman and left Pack on . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who Are Rovers? Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 So some people can tell just by looking at someone whether the can be 'arsed' or not then, I see. If it wasn't for JET's heroics in the early parts of last season, we wouldn't even be in this division, cut the boy some slack, and give him a ****ing chance.

Pickle Rick Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Appearance fee.You mean unused sub fee. In his case, it's probably more expensive not to play him. And most of all, part of his deal where he knew he'd play in every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically JET is going to come on every game with a minute to go just to cost him a few quid. No wonder he doesn't look too interested when he comes on - he would probably earn more on the bench!

Wilbs didn't have a great game tonight but still JET never got a look in. I can only imagine Cotts has decided JET has passed his best before date & will be looking to move him on. I am afraid this may be the case also. I am an unashamedly huge advocate of JET and I thought that game was crying out for him at 65/70 minutes last night. We weren't really getting at them and we were struggling to get around them, we needed to try something different and he is that. I don't see the point in having that "different player/another club in the bag" if you are only going to give him 30 seconds of a 93 minute game to do any damage. Unfortunately I think moving on will be the best option for both parties, something which I think will come back to haunt us. I think he will be replaced by a more conventional "pacy hard working" player which seems to be what SC prefers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kibs Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Wilbraham looked dead on his feet with 20 minutes left and I was fully expecting JET to come on.
