Re: Darikwa to Forrest?
Same here...whatever people think of his 'defensive qualities' he has alot of positive attributes that, after a good start, were never developed...ie his ability to go forward, take men on & beat them

Re: Yet another away defeat

Being abroad, I watched it live on tv in the middle of the night...I can confirm that even from SE Asia, 20 mins from the end you could feel a goal was coming. 'Barnes softens them up, now will Vokes get the winner?'. A good forcast from the commentator! ☺
