Who was it that wont play for the reserves?

[yeo]

However, King was far from pleased with an un-named member of his squad who was less keen to play for the second string.

"People have laughed about playing in the reserves but I will leave them and perhaps let them hang themselves on their own high opinions of themselves," he said.

"They might come knocking on my door but let me say that only I will pick the team from now on."

Sheffield Wednesday winger Richard Evans played in the reserves' 4-2 win over Cheltenham Town but King was not overly impressed.

"I might have another look because Sheffield Wednesday are prepared to pay up his contract," he said.

"But I thought his performance today was poor so I'm not going to make a decision on that."

i read that today...don't know who. i was thinking ifl maybe, but platt and reeves played instead which looks fine for the reserves.

[Reg Smeeton]

I'd guess Tony Thorpe....sems a bit up himself.....I'd get rid now...

[Asher]

could it be thorpe?

[yeo]

I have to say Thope was my first thought,its a bit gay if he is going to be left to rot  though as Kingy seems to imply.

[Johno]

well to be honest, Thorpe now will be behind cureton for a starting place, and probably Roberts, if he just does well in training, plays in the reserves, he can only try and impress kingy. Not playing won't get him back in the first team.

[fatbury]

Thorpe is injured so it aint him ... can only be Roberts as hes the only sub who didnt play in the reserves :-))(

[McLovin]

Has to be the Welsh Wizzard for my money...

[stfc11]

I thought Thorpe wasn't injured anymore? he was my first thought

[pauld]

Bit that intrigued me was

they might come knocking on my door but let me say that only I will pick the team from now on

which kind of implies either he was ordered to select the player in question or maybe that Reeeeeves/Woan had been given more of a say and this guy was one of their choices? Can't see it being the second option, FWIW

Or am I reading too much into this all together?

[Reg Smeeton]

Roberts played the 90 v Oldham, then  25 mins on Sat ....so probably not him... Thorpe had a cold, so could perhaps have done with some sort of run out.

[pauld]

AK don't like that kind of thing though. Remember Juan Cobian and his "I don't see why I should play 100% for the reserves" and then couldn't understand why he wasn't given a chance to prove himself in the 1st team?

[jim]

It was Roberts.

I wouldn't be overly surprised if it was Nicho.

Just noticed "Man of the cloth" very funny indeed.
