sounded like bothroyd was sat on his arse quite a few times during the match, the commentator said dave jones turned is back on him while bothroyd was calling for the physio!!! lol but i still think he's been a good player for us this season!!!

BEST and ONLY game i have ever seen Bothroyd stand into the play was PLymouth away beg. season and his play was brilliant because he was concentrating on the game and his passing and recieving NOT on playing for freekicks! He does need a kick up the arse - how mnay players want to be in the start up for their team week in week out - and get paid as much as he do! (i'm not saying he isn't a nice bloke off the pitch - but on the pitch he has a job to do and he isnt doing it to the standard we need)

I saw Mcphail being taken into an ambulance straight after the game with what was described as concussion .let's hope it's not more than that

McPhail went straight to hospital last night. Apparently it was a recurrance of the same injury he had a while back!!

AFAIK, Bothroyd has been playing with a problem at the back of his knee which may require surgery.

Better just to criticise the guy, eh?

Spot on. Any other club and Bothroyd wouldn't have even been on the bench last night. Now I hear it could be possible ankle ligament damage, just watch how much we miss him if that's true :shock:

Despite not having his best game last night he made both the goals and hit the post, I'll take that over any of the options we currently have. Give the guy a break :roll:

Yeah, one idiot near me was yelling at him most of the second half... "You're useless"... "pansy"... "get up".

Another guy shut him up by yelling "Yeah, Jay, you're useless, only one assist tonight".
