Re: Reasons You Don't Attend Games at Twerton Park?

[quote="the demon headmaster"]Why on Earth would they have made such an effort to get him here in the first place? Manda brought him in.

Stearn is not selected because he is not doing what the management want him to do: namely to be more of a threat going forward, getting good balls into the box, or putting the opposition under pressure. Is that what they want though. Isn't it more likely that they want a player who keeps the shape of the team and puts in a defensive shift? [quote]

I think that is rubbish. That clearly is not his game, and that would have been obvious to anyone before he arrived. I guess it will be revealed how well he is regarded in the corridors of power at the end of the season, but did Manda really force the signing on the club against the Management's advice?

If you want the crowds back you play Stearn ,Pratt & Watkins together , when they are available ,no brainer really.Give Stearn a run ,put him in the starting line up and keep him in the side as was done with Andy Watkins.He had a lean spell where nothing went right for him but his old form came back.Stearn wont always get it right but more often than not he will score or create an opening for another player.His corners and free kicks are amazing at times,no other player in the side can do that .Just remember this is Conference South not the premiership we are watching , even the players in that league are not perfect week in and week out.
