2024/25 Nathan Patterson

[Moomin]

Is that why Dyche doesn’t play him? Was there a fight or something?

Another excuse for why Patterson doesn't play is all it is.

He’s a player who hardly has a game, ever… when he’s come on he’s played well. It’s not like he’s schneiderlin. If you want vitriol, look at any of Daveks posts. “Not making the grade” doesn’t explain the savage hatred

That's not savage hatred, that's not rating a player and coming on a discussion forum to convey your opinion to others. It's OK to disagree but to call things hatred and vitriol is completely over the top. It's dead weird.

I remember people clamouring for Lewis Dobson to get more minutes and saying Dychesauraus was holding him back. He's just been sent back to Villa from his loan at West Brom, sparsely used by young, continental progressive coach Carlos Corberan. Maybe, just maybe, Dyche is actually a better judge of a young player than we are and he's as right about Patterson as he was about Dobbin.

all that may be true but he'd still contribute more than Jack Harrison.
The same way Patterson would likely contribute more than young or mykolenko if young switched to the left.

Can someone explain the vitriol for Patterson? (And not just ‘oh he’s rubbish’ because that doesn’t explain the campaign). The hatred goes to levels far beyond normal, especially for someone who doesn’t get a game.

Is it sectarianism because he played for rangers? Did Naismith and Jelavic get that hate, I wasn’t around back then?

The vitriol has been widely covered in his past 2 seasons threads. There is a lot of pretence about how he is a “nice lad” and they “want him to do well” but several posters have had thread bans and one has even admitted to be a wum. Yet they stay camped in here.

Best to just stick on ignore and let them show themselves up.

Yes. He's tripe.

"He doesn't get a chance to play"

Erm, he's played 41 times.

"He's only started 21 times then"

Big game lad come on

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Makes such a difference having at least one fullback on the pitch who makes a forward run. It creates space going forward, drags a player away

Having a stinker defensively so far.

If we must play with 2 right backs, I think he and Young should surely swap here.

good last ditch tackle there though

Yeah, which he created the need for!

Was a poor touch but well recovered.

 

[Efcjake]

Some definitely wanted that handball given against us in here.

If you turn your back on the ball and flail your arms around you're looking for trouble.
