As we have been demonstrating for the last 3 seasons it is really difficult for any player to look decent in a really shite team. When teams don’t make any runs it’s easy for good players to be caught in possession. When teams make the wrong runs it is easy for good players to hit stray passes.
That is why in a shite team we tend to only see maximum effort as a positive and perceived lack of effort as a negative.
Probably why Rory was the only credible candidate for player of the season.
We will never know how good Pugh would be in a team that actually can play a bit of football. I hope he gets that opportunity somewhere else.
Same goes for Cribb, Gallimore, Shrimpton and pretty much the whole set of players but particularly the youngsters. If we can make the massive leap in quality from embarrassingly shite to barely competent as a team then we will see which of these youngsters can play and which can’t.
