I did about two seasons ago. I am still of the same opinion. |

I care about reserve football. So do all the folk who go down to see the young lads. Trevor Francis, bob Latchford, Neil Kilkenny to cut the list short are the reasons why we bother. Pity there aren't more people interested, maybe we would do much better. |

You're right gb. He also drives me mad for being the lowest reactor I have ever seen. Nothing, but nothing gets him agitated. |

have to agree pat, he seems to really not be able to react to a situation , he slagged Marcos painter all game , gave him a real hammering and Kuqi too, so why did he leave them on so long |

And if we got rid of Andrew Barrowman eh Pat ? I'll remind you of the criticism you've levelled at this young vunerable lad, just making his way in the game, not earning a vast amount of money struggling to make ends meet, when you have a go at anyone who dares criticise the woeful application and performances of Mr Julian Gray <_< The reserves were always the place (when I was a lad) where players recovering from injury played to get match fit. I don't see much evidence of that anymore. :unsure: |

The issue with the post about Gray were tha abuse that was levelled against him. Barrowmnan has been an up and coming youngster since god was a boy for heavens sake. Do you know how old he is? Do you know how long he has been in the reserves. How many times have you seen him play? How many times has he been sent out on loan to develop his skill only for him to return because he didn't like it.? |

There was no personal abuse levelled at Gray, just criticism of his lack of application, his disinterest, unwillingness to put his foot in and his general attitude on the pitch. You seem to be operating double-standards. As for Barrowman - he's a reserve, probably on a few hundred quid a week, he's not a first team player and will probably be released when his contract runs out. Gray, earns thousands of pounds a week "plays" and I use that word reluctantly for the first team, and, it looks like we're stuck with him :( And Pat, how would you like to be farmed out on loan with that nasty Scottish man at Blackpool and Little Brian at Tranmere ? No wonder he wanted to come home to that nice, safe comfort zone that is the Blues training ground ;) |

There was abuse, maybe you would like to ignore it now, but if you like I'll dig it up for you. With your attitude to nice safe reserve football, we are likely to be second best for a long time to come. I'm sure you don't mean that tho', and you probably argue for the sake of it. Barrowman for me is like the dummie from Burton's window, he very rarely breaks sweat, doesn't get dirty and pulls out of a lot of 50-50 situations in case he gets ruffled. Last night he actually got a bit more involved, but he's got a long way to go. He has been backed by Blues more than any other reserve I have ever known. i wonder why? the thing that really frustrates me about him is that he prbably has quite a lot of natural talent, but he is wasting his opportunity. |
