I was stood in the corner next to the scoreboard in the first half and could clearly hear London players shouting at each other to target Presley. They repeatedly ran forwards at him I assume to tire him out and affect his playmaking ability but also because he is small.

I thought he handled it well and responded with some key plays in the second half, even though some numpties in the Turner stand were giving him some grief - why do "fans" do this - do they think that insulting their own players is motivational?

Agree that Scott Law was MOM, he just gets better and better.






I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!

Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

I to was stood in the same corner as you Dreamer.

And as you say they were targeting him. Time and time again the calls to run at him were clearly heard.
If anything he has to take it as a huge compliment. This clearly shows how much they were worried about him.

As for the people in the Turner stand :wink:

Good point about John,as for fans insulting him in the Turner stand ,only thing i heard were people telling him to get more involved.
Just watched Scott Laws first try on youtube,man he takes it well

I would suggest that those who "look" at the game are the ones who "hear" this so called "criticism" and react accordingly

Those who "Watch" the game are usually people who can see what's actually going on and pass comment.

I could be wrong but it's very rare this season that I have heard any "adverse comment" aimed at a particular player but a lot about situations and types of play.

Mind you I do think it comes down to "understanding" :wink:

What I do find "interesting" is that the coach seems to "watch" the game and comments accordingly in the Keighley News and League Express 8)






regards
and ENJOY your sport

Must say some of the criticism of some players is odd because the players are damned if they do or do not try something.

I still hear folk moaning about DannyJones kicking as previously mentioned his record speaks for itself.

The moaning is about his kicks to toutch. Not often he gets more than 10 yards

Ah, but he is improving so maybe the distance is the next bit of his kicking game to be worked on. I didn't rate him much as a goal kicker originally but he's certainly improved that element of his game! Let's wait and see what happens.

Ahhhhhh, so it was you shouting :o .

I didn't realise you were such a potty mouth :lol:

To follow your logic: do those that "watch" the game just "listen" to those that "look" at the game or do they actually "hear" what they are "actually" saying :shock: """""""
