Thats the worrying thing CPW he's been fit to train since the end of last season and has had all the off & pre season to get fit and still isn't.He doesnt look interested.One more worrying thing is that Noble seems to think he is fit enough and ready to play in the 1st team
Very true Gilly. We have a young man in the Academy, Liam Thompson whose career was in doubt and he had surgery etc and missed a whole season. He's returned this season and he comes off the pitch absolutely spent but he keeps doing it. This was a bot that was doing fitness work from his very early teens.
Pryce looks like he does not care or wants to make the effort. I would say at a conservative estimate he needs to lose 2 stone. Maybe 3.
Yet Numpty selects him and Boy Band Conditioner does what?
If Sean is not nominated to play ,I think it's about time Mr L told numpty to go walkies. His team selections are to say the least mystifying and the more I see of his efforts this season the more i believe he should go. unfortunately I think IL will let him run out his contract but I am afraid that by then he will have done more damage than good.
If Ainscough does play v Wakefield having been left out of the 19 originally just how motivated will he be?
All we can hope for if he does play is that he makes Noble look a fool for not including him in the first place and also hope he doesn't make the odd mistake which any other coach would forgive a young player like him but would give Noble the excuse he tinks he needs to drop him again.
It would be a wonderful irony if Ainscough, originally left out of the team scored a hat trick!

Though you could argue that Aisncough was bound to need a break, and the week off did him good. For all I know Noble knew Carmont wouldn't make it and was doing the lad a favour by not showing his hand against a clever Trinity side.
Or - every time anything has gone right it is despite Noble and every time it goes wrong it is his fault.
