He's always looking for a reaction, he should have "warra ego" as his username, far more apt. |  |

Possibly physically he can not handle the intensity of the training and therefore will never be able to play 90 minutes. If this is the case time to move on. And 800 grand is not peanuts in the championship with no parachute payments. |  | |  |

800,000 is a large lump sum for a club of our financial capabilities, we are no Manchester City |  | |  |

We're not even Manchester City reserves, they cost more than us. People forget. |  |

And probably Cullen is a sycophant doing everything he is asked and buying in 100% hence his appearances. |  |

He is most certainly 100% buying in to the new regime, and as a result, you are right he is getting picked. |  |

And it all depends on the regime doesn't it. Personally,I don't think humiliating players is that honorable a way of handling men. Whittaker has been shockingly treated . Cullen's inclusion in all your need to try to see the light |  |

Regret what exactly? Seems to me Martin doesn’t rate him, personally I do Sometimes people don’t fit Are you suggesting he’s letting himself down? |  |

Their U21's have probably cost more than us!!! If MW can't manage training at full pace, how does he last around 97 mins playing against the thugs of Cardiff/ Stoke and the donkeys at other clubs? My bigger worry than MW is our goalie position. Just as one example from today, Hamer came out to nearly the half way line, to defend an attack. 99.9% of keepers would either of hoofed it into touch or upfield, to give the defence time to reorganise. Not enough time for Williams though, as it seems he needs 45 mins to get back into position. Sort of saunters around the place like he doesn't have to try, that we're beneath him as he's Liverpool and we're only little ole Swansea. Still can't get over the fact that he couldn't keep up with Donkey Carroll, who has always had the speed our Bob Latchford had! Not our Hamer though. Goes with his lethargic, "pass the ball to no-one in particular, let's not even think the opposition may have a chance to score" attitude and drops us in the sh1te, in a match yet again. Thankfully no goal came from it this time. Is RM so adamant that passing out from the back is supposed to happen 100% of the time, no matter what the situation is. or is Hamer acting the Billy bigbollox and ignoring what he's been told to do in training? Same sort of question/ statement is being asked about MW btw. And if Hamer is acting the Billy, why isn't he binned for Benda, who IMHO ( not that I know anything!) is the slightly better alternative. Or the best of the worst to put it another way. Yes to a certain poster, I am enjoying the football, because I'm grateful for anything after the last 2 years of FukenCovid. That's why I went to the Play off final as well. Is it perfect? No Better than Brad Bobbley? Most certainly. Cullis, Adams,Jackett and Yorath hoof as well, IMHO. Am I starting to think that RM has a very stubborn ego where he has to be right. Or he thinks he was wrong once, but doubts it? Unfortunately, Yes Time will tell on that one. And until it does, I will keep an open mind about him and hopefully my opinion is wrong. Because it being right means our club will be suffering because of it. |  |

They're professional footballers playing for the club I love, I'd expect them all to be buying into it & giving 100%. If not they can feck off as far as I'm concerned. Before you ask, no I don't think Cullen is good enough - that's a different argument. |  | |  |

This ''buying into'' stuff is a bit of a cliché really. I am sure, most if not all players will do as they are told. Doesn't mean they have to agree with the way the tactics are though. I'm sure that is rife in most underperforming clubs in some form or other. Even last season when 4th some players may not have agreed with the way we played, some fans didn't. A player doesn't have to ''buy in'' to anything in order to play the game. I would imagine there are a fair few of our players scratching their heads at some of the tactics. Id love to have been in Naughtons head when he was told he was playing in the center of the 3 CB's against Andy Carroll. I don't for one second think he ''bought in'' to that idea, and I am sure none of the other players did either. |  |

I was responding to the previous post that used that phrase. I expect 100% commitment from our players, very simple really. If the suggestion is that some aren't giving that then they don't deserve to be picked. Not being on the inside we don't know that though. |  | |  |

I doubt if Hamer is acting unilateraly...He is doing what his manager has told him to do...otherwise I m sure that by now Martin would have dropped him like a stone. Rememebr Martins words following the Bristol city win when it seems the players changed tsactics. I half suspect that is why Fulton has found himslef out in the cold.....but it seems or so the rumours go we have received an offer and a deal is truck for him to leave in the next window. Hamer is doing as he is told.just like all the players im sure Naughtin would have usually hit the ball into touch rather rhan pass it across in feld against Reading but he did as our manager told him pass it to keep possesion. |  |
