A difficult decision for Hoot. The type of decision he is paid to make.

I wouldn't blame Hoot if Ruddy messes up costing the game. I would blame Hoot if we get relegated.

- If we lose and then go down it's not because of today, it's because of the run post-Xmas (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Man, May 4, 13:05:35
  - Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:07:49

        Of course he isn't to blame for a player error (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, May 4, 13:27:36

  - it's simply the better option (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:48:39

    - That's not the point (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:50:20
      - only the keeper would be to blame (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:58:41
        
        Maybe it's strange, lol (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:11:30
      - Hoots is the manager (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 12:58:00
  - Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:46:28
    - I guess if he plays him he's confident he's sharp enough (NCFC) - duke of york, May 4, 12:50:40
      - So you would blame the management? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:58:14
        
        Nobody (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, May 4, 13:09:06
        
        Good. Nice concise response. (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:17:17
        
        you play your best players when fit it isn't complicated lol (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:01:05

        maybe those who don't want him back yet would (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:06:22
        
        I just want the best for teamk to play personally (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:19:36
        
        In the end, whether Hoot has done a decent job this season all rides on staying up. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:00:19
        
        Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:18:03
        
        exactly if we get relegated (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:01:51
        
        No doubt. (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:23:57
    - so keepers coming back from injury need a pre season behind them? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:49:22
      - If we're at the start of the season the games aren't so crucial (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:52:48
        
        then even more important we play our england keeper (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:59:36
        
        Okay, I don't think you really get the point (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:02:42
        
        No I wouldn't blame the management. GK fuckups are part of the game. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:03:51
        
        if he's clearly not fit then they should be blamed however (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:07:24
        
        Thanks for answering the question clearly (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:05:31
        
        if it's clear he still isn't fit (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:03:45
        
        Might be able to during the game (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:06:39
        
        Bunn has hardly been in inspired form of late. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 12:56:50
        
        Yeah I know that mate (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:59:57
        
        A difficult decision for Hoot. The type of decision he is paid to make. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:02:31
        
        Agreed on all counts (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:06:03
- Truth is keepers always get stick over basic errors. Play ruddy. (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, May 4, 12:33:15
