These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Re: Powell
I'm also wondering about O'Neil? If he's fit, we are not investing in any other 9 for 2022 and beyond, I'd start him for the rest of the season to gain experience and interchange him with Powell!

Re: Powell
Regardless of him leaving, if he is the best option at 9 (Not just best at 9, but best for overall selection) then he should be included.fozzieskem wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 11:55 am Given Bourouh is leaving I’m not sure who’s benefitting from him being in the squad,I’d play Hastings there to be honest

Re: Powell
Hastings has experience though. If we play borough it is another inexperienced player in our line up, potentially weakening the team in some peoples eyes. We will not benefit from giving him experience as he is leaving, so if it weakens* the team and has no future gain for us I can see the reasoning behind not playing him.Firestarter wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 1:05 pmHastings is leaving too although its strange not playing the other ladfozzieskem wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 11:55 am Given Bourouh is leaving I’m not sure who’s benefitting from him being in the squad,I’d play Hastings there to be honest
*I'm not personally saying he weakens the team, just saying this could be the reason.

Re: Powell
The question we need to ask is "Why is Bourouh leaving and O'Neill staying, but Bourouh in the squad now and O'Neill knowhere to be seen?"
I don't understand why he was recalled from his loan to sit on the sidelines?
The club must believe he is the better long term prospect and we cannot have both next year, but how have they made that decision if he isn't good enough now to fill in a few games or 20 minutes here and there?

Re: Powell
