Yeah okay is there a point to that?
If a keeper makes 2 mistakes in the first 4 games? How can they not be dropped?

Burge made one about 16 matches ago? And has now made a second? Big difference

He's on the idiot hate list though.

Fans are dumb sometimes. His position says striker so if he isn't scoring at a 20 goals a season rate he isn't playing well.

He hasn't got one league goal in over 20 games...

Its shouldn't be his only contribution, but it should be a contribution !

He's not costing us points, he makes us a better team. He gives McNulty the opportunity to to what he does best rather than trying to do the donkey work too.

I didn't say drop him, but I would rather someone else be in that No. 9 slot so these great chances don't go begging every week. Everything else he does is good but we can't afford poor finishing at the moment.

I have missed the Stoke game but all the rest. Have you ever played football ?

Yes, but I'm not sure why that is relevant. He absolutely hasn't played badly in every game. Was good against Wycombe, good against Stoke, in fact he's been good in every game I've seen him apart from a handful at the beginning of the season. I must just miss all the bad ones.

I agree he needs to add goals, just doesn't need people all over him every time he has a shot and it doesn't go in.

Why would you expect to lay an egg if you bought a chicken.

Are you for real ? The females from all breeds of chickens lay eggs. Some hens stop laying when they are old, but there are no breeds or varieties of chickens in which the females do not lay eggs.

If your trying to be clever stick to dominoes
