Re: James Gray

Time for oil-pouring yet again I fear ?...
Like Macca says there is, and I don't care to use the word but it seems to fit, crap appearing in every thread posted on our Forum.
So I won't mention Coleman, or the long gone Beattie whose work and influence at the Club are long gone and therefore of little relevance whatsoever !.
As for James Gray, whose ground-level antics displayed much too often, I don't like at all, It is I think that he is a young man finding his way in a difficult profession which often lands an individual between a rock and a hard place, and where a lack of experience and immaturity can have a serious effect on their development and opportunity !.
Skill level, in such situations doesn't seem to matter, and peripheral effects like Managerial preference and the presence of other more favoured players often decides their position in the pecking order for team selection.
If this is the case for young James then can I suggest that he firstly has the opportunity to sit down with someone having the wisdom to talk him through what must seem to him like an insoluble dilemma, and secondly that he does show the mettle and courage to make a real impression on all who are there to manage his journey towards finding his place in Soccer !.
Too many lads have been lost to the game at his age. Hope that James doesn't join their ranks !.
