Honeyman

[KosovanMackem94]

Anyone who thinks this kid is a good footballer doesn't know football, not even a debate tbh. He'll fade into obscurity when we're finally shot of it

He’s another one - like Catts - who was often used wrongly by Ross last season. I still think there’s something he can give if used correctly. However I also wouldn’t be that bothered if a champ club wants to give us a decent fee for him.

Bang on but going off JRs comments and the fact we're in for Dobson i think the penny has finally dropped and we're going to set up the right way next season. Hopefully tonight will give us a positive indication as to how we're going to set up.

Just a thought for some fans...

Whilst I don't agree with him retaining the captaincy and he clearly has his limitations etc... It IS possible for a 24 year old to IMPROVE. It seems the entire fanbase has decided Honeyman is exactly this good and that is the end of it.

The decision is made. Time to get behind the lad. Last seasons play off final defeat could be the making of the lad.

He's 25 in September, and he's nee better now than when we first saw him (which wasn't long after he came from the Gateshead 'cos they realised he was nee good anarl.

How on earth a terrible performance in a terrible game which ended in a terrible result could be the making of the lad I do not know. Not unless it somehow dawned on him that football's not the career for him and he's decided to take up a career in haberdashery.

Course it does, it means he needs a reason to drop him instead of a reason to pick him.

Why?

If he was club captain I would agree however he will be starting for us which doesn’t bode well. This is not going to end well for JR

He may start but I don’t think it’s because he is captain

Why?

Cos he's naming him as captain, you'd think its fair to assume he rates him and will play him wherever possible.....he'd need a reason to drop him

He suddenly gonna develop into a footballer after his 42312th anonymous performance like?

Yeah it'll give us an indication. Don’t want to read too much into it either way but fingers crossed.

Awful decision

Captain again eh? It's decisions like this that will probably cost Ross his job

 

[Super Colin Todd]

Have we sold the worst capatain in our history yet?

Pound shop Jeff Whitley more like it.

Nope and can’t see Ross getting rid.

 

[0321safc]

Not learning from his mistakes AGAIN we should have peddled this manager within days of the play off final defeat.

 

[Roker Scoreboard]

Why?

He's only in the team because he's captain. Surely that's not up for debate?

Dont understand your last paragraph

 

[The Breen Machine]

Confirmed as captain again for the upcoming season.

Apologies if SEB.

Sound endorsement of our manager there.

Bugger.......

 

[Tokyo Optician]

Ross’s thoughts - Honeyman shone as captain last season WTF

Trips up at the first hurdle this season

 

[Nil desperandum]

I'm not interested in whether he's captain or not, it's the fact that he's a terrible footballer and plays week in week out that does my tits in.

Perhaps you're judging him on the mistaken assumption that we are still a premier league club. I would wager that most league one clubs would be delighted to have a Honeyman in their side. And for the record there are probably another fifteen in our ranks who are nowhere near premier standard.
