I agree with you Sippo its an excuse often used,but i think its a poor excuse to use when your not getting results.Im sure background checks would be done,not only about what individuals are like on the pitch but also off it as well.Sorry if i bit but the gelling scenario just dont wash with me.

why does everyone hate JPM so much?
appeared to have a bad attitude under Malpas but under Sturrock, Byrne and even Wilson he's been a good player?
I like JPM, ironically I thought he was playing ok until he got dropped/injured. When he came on for HRK against Wovers he showed a good touch and looked sharp and hungry. Did more in 20 mins than HRK did the whole game. I reckon with a decent pre-season he could become a good squad player. |

For my money JPM has been one of our better plays under DW.
Shame he got injured when he did really because he could have put a nice run of games together.
I personally think that fatherhood has been the making of him down here in Swindon, Wiltshire.

No idea, delivers afar better ball and has better visions than HRK does at this stage of his career. You could criticise him for lack of effort at some points, but he seemed to have sorted that out too. |

I think that people don't like him because he is Scottish.
I find myself able to look past this and just consider his overall contribution to the team.

Slow, can't tackle and his delivery is over-rated because it's more miss than hit. He'd annoy me less if he caused the opposition problems but he seems to be a central midfielder in a wingers role simply because his crossing is his best attribute.

No coincidence that we improved with two pacey wingers . They were being doubled up on which allowed us to control games at times.

I take you point on JPM's pace, but which two wingers were pacey? Can't remember the last time any of our wingers took on the fullback and beat them for pace. Roberts could do this. |

Kevin Amankwaah was probably our best winger for it.
Mark Marshall did it a few times

I'm guessing one of them was Marshall, he may not be the finished article but he's undeniably rapid. Macca and Kanu are nippy at times as well. |
