watched wires last games on tv......problem seems to be that lowes thinks higham can play 80 minutes.
he starts off ok, then in 2nd half goes rapidly downhill cos hes knackered.
thats lowes fault.
as for wanting him back instead of riddell ???
id swop the pair of em to get godwin back
That is absolutely right. Higham just doesn't know how to pace himself. He works himself into the ground, and once he is fatigued, that's when his mistakes come in. Hopefully when Clarke is fit it will take some of the pressure off him, but from what I have seen of him so far, I have been very happy with his signing. The worry for me is that Lowes said before the start of the season that he won't have a 9 on the bench, but then again the bloke is absolutely clueless anyway.
Jonh - Higham gives on average 1 penalty per match. Now that stat is too high, but for the amount of work he does, I will live with that.
