Parker and Livermore couldnt trap a bag of cement yesterday.
Sure it wasn't pretty, but Dawson's primary job is to keep the ball away from our area-with neither of the centre midfielders dropping short or showing any kind of footballing ability, a pass to them would have been risky-i'd far rather he hit it long and away from danger.
We certainly didn't draw yesterday because of Dawson's apparent 'hoofing!'
I'm sorry but that is utter nonsense, and even our manager thought it was utter nonsense because he was shown at the side of the pitch, very irate, shouting and gesticulating "pass the ball".
And if our manager thought the same way you do, the same way Dawson did yesterday, that the best way to win football matches is by humping the ball to the opposition every time we got it, then he shouldn't be anywhere near our club.
Really poor post. As bad an apology for Dawson's limitations as I've ever read. And I've read a fair few over the last few years.
