Hmmm.... so Dickinson goes and Forster wants to play again.
Coincidence?

Yeah, great news....
Apart from having cost us 7 feckin points!!!!
At least it's over.
How did it cost us 7 points?
Wasn't Forster also playing during 4 of the 5 home matches in a row that we failed to score in, so how can you say that he would have definitely made the difference?
Its just good to have him back again.

Our forwards were pretty ineffectual in the two games that I saw (Hudds and Norwich) - all that was needed was a poacher's touch. We should've been 3:0 up against Norwich, but we were busy trying out inexperienced youth.
I just think we'd have come away with more than 2 from 9 if we'd had Fozzie up front.
You could well be right but I'm not sure Forster would have managed all 270 minutes of football. On the plus side he should be relatively fresh for the Leeds game.

Exactly. From this he is more than ever making his point over the way the club handles this sort of situation. I simply cannot believe that for the sake of a statement like this he was excluded for 3 very important games which possibly cost us 7 points.
I'm sure others will argue otherwise but I'm not sure I'm that impressed with the club's handling of this matter.
Funny, i've never though of Murray (who had 2 chances cleared of the line) as inexperienced youth.
So not all 9 points then which is what you were implying?

Firstly, did you actually attend any of the last three games?
I was obviously referring to Holroyd, who looked out of his depth and not strong enough to give their centre backs any trouble.
I think, with Forster on the pitch, we would've beaten Huddersfield by a couple of goals, and been three up against Norwich.
Forster is our top scorer for a reason; he's our most natural goal scorer; I honestly beleive that he would've put Murray's chances away.
So, maybe not ALL 9 points, if you want to be so feckin pedantic , but at least the 5 of them we dropped at home.

Strength, maybe not, but pace definitely caused them problemsI was obviously referring to Holroyd, who looked out of his depth and not strong enough to give their centre backs any trouble.
conjecture, impossible to prove as the game would have been very different, Norwich, for example may have pushed us back further up the pitch without the breakaway threat of Holroyds pace and we might not have had anywhere near the amount of possession or opportunities as we had.I think, with Forster on the pitch, we would've beaten Huddersfield by a couple of goals, and been three up against Norwich.
Forster was very poor in the two games prior to his temper tantrum, he seemed to have lost his touch and pace which is his main assets so if he had played, would he have done any better - who knows? would he have been in the right place at the right time? Another day Murrays chances all go in, that game he was just unlucky due to some very good defending. and after all NF was playing in 4 out of the 5 home games we failed to score in recently, would he have made that much difference? impossible to say.Forster is our top scorer for a reason; he's our most natural goal scorer; I honestly beleive that he would've put Murray's chances away.
You said originally it cost us 7 points from those 3 games, just pointing out it was highly unlikelySo, maybe not ALL 9 points, if you want to be so feckin pedantic , but at least the 5 of them we dropped at home.
Holroyd, that guy that put the experienced forward that is Glenn Murray with a clear sight on goal with no keeper in the way to have Murray miss it? Yeah, the young guy didn't make any impact, doesn't cause any trouble does he... he looks fine, just a finding his feet, as any new player does first time ina new league. He looks fine.
