Title: Blair Sturrock
Post by: Tails on Tuesday, January 16, 2007, 17:47:29

Will he ever get more than 5 minutes??

I've been watching his goals for Rochdale and Kidderminster and he scored some very good goals, including a corker at the Kassam. He's never looked bad when he's come on and deserves more of a go IMO. I think he might bag a few goals if he's given the chance.

As long as we win, I don't care if he doesn't play at all :shrug:

I agree, as long as he's here then he might as well get a fair crack of the whip. Daddy seems hesitant as he got a lot of stick from Plymouth fans for it. He obviously rates Jutkiewicz higher though.

It would be good to see him start one of these days when he is 100% fit

See Beckett is another who has been linked on a couple of forums, seems far fetched to me as he's having a decent season for Uddersfield.

might as well give him a go, he's the only player we're going to sign any time soon

He's good at holding up the ball and his control, would work well with someone like Roberts

Daddy's prepared to offer him a contract - I hope the board only approve a one year deal.
Better still I'd like them to bring in a scout to watch Sturrock Junior and independently advise whether he's a good bet. I just don't think Luggy can make an uninfluenced decision...

Better to give Brownlie a go, if we're still paying him!

I really think you are doubting Sturrock Snr's intelligence, he wouldn't risk playing a no-mark for this club just to get his son a contract for fuck sake.

Glad he's got his goal. But he's not done it based on ability - he should get the opportunity to replace Roberts in the 75th minute :D

He must average something like a goal every 20 minutes or so played now then! :D

When he has come on in games he has looked like he has got something decent about him, I'd like to see him given a start sometime soon, perhaps move Peacock back into midfield

Problem with moving Peacock back to the midfield is, he couldn't get a place there at the moment. With the form of Timlin and Pook's performance today, plus Weston, Peacock has to play up front. It would be hard to give Blair Sturrock a start, would have to drop Peacock for that, but i think Blair deserves a start to show us how he can perform for a full 90mins or so.

he took his goal very well.

All the goals were nicely taken in different ways. Good to see the goals spread amongst different players too. I loved the teletext match report saying pook scored from 8 yards, Ed hadwin made it sound like a an absolute thunderbolt from miles out, when the reality was a very well taken goal from just inside the box.
