Makes me laugh how fans were calling for him to start under Riza because he ran round lots in a cup game! Headless chicken more like! Good luck to the lad, hope he does well but thats his level.

I'm big enough to admit when I'm wrong (unlike some).

I was one who said he should have got a chance, based on what I saw in the U21s. But I was there when he came on as a substitute away at Coventry (I think) and he looked out of his depth.

Didn't do much at Newport either.

So what? There's no harm in calling for someone to be given a chance especially when we were crying out for someone to make a difference. I certainly wanted to see how he would do & he did not do well, so nobody asked again. Being wrong sometimes hurts nobody, we can't all be perfect all the time.

100%, the lad is only 21 now, no shame in it not working out for him at Newport who were terrible at the time

He could go away, find a home, get confident and slowly build up leading to a career he wants too

Good luck to him, he won’t be the first or the last one to come back stronger

I seem to remember Tanner had an awful spell at York in non league

I'm not saying we should have given Reindorf a chance but players having bad spells at clubs doesn't automatically mean we should get rid
