So Carlton back to being a forward again WG, lol, to me if Whitehall is out you’ve got to persevere with him he just needs game time and confidence a goal might just sort it all out for him.

To be fair after that first half performance from him against Spennymoor when he couldn’t trap a simple ball up to him, gave me flash backs all those years ago of Matt Bailey “those who know, know”

I fully understand he isn’t fully fit, but he was failing to do the simple basics a not match fit player should have pulled off. I’m not giving up on him because where we are we can ill afford to give up on anybody, but interesting to see he’s a been a winger nearly all his career and netted 16 last season again cutting in from the wing.

I remember Butler saying when he signed him he saw him as a striker so maybe he’s feeling as little bit out of his depth playing there and couple that with the lack of match fitness and over eagerness to impress could be what’s making him struggle so much.

That performance the other night was worrying from Carlton. There were some questionable performances across the board, but can’t remember seeing a player struggle as much as him in a very, very long time.

It does throw up questions and make you ask yourself if he’s a striker as Butler believes or a winger where he’s played the majority of his career ?
