Yep, someone actually said that at Withdean today. When we were winning. Dear God, are we that fickle/stupid/forgetful?

Disclaimer: Kerry has been a magnificent servant of this club and deserves a whole lot of credit for everything he has done for us

I can't beleive that anyone would really advocate the return of Mayo. He is a conference player at best now and has been for some years. And that's a fact.

I thought both Whing and Richards had bad games in terms of defence yesterday. Shame really, because Whing played a couple of glorious attacking passes in the first half!

Having said all this..."Richards is clueless: Bring Back Mayo" is a senseless thing to say! :thud:

As much as I think the thread title is ridiculous, I do think Richards is quite vulnerable and has been skinned a few too many times and opposition have got in behind us down our left quite a few times. Didnt really notice it last year, but have seen it a few times this year. However, I do rate Richards and am in no way advocating dropping him.

I rate Richards pretty highly, but he DID have a mare yesterday.

I'm not convinced with Richards. He is generally good going forward but his defensive skills aren't that good. He is very easily turned and sent the wrong way.

Why doesn't the young kid who came on against Man City get another chance.

The problem is that left-back is a position where there is very little competition. I reckon Richards is a great ball player with plenty of ability and composure at this level, but he's not the best defender. Ironically, the reverse applies to Whing.
