Why is it that even when we have a successful team people feel the need to focus on someone they think is crap or not as good as others? I`d guess, because that`s the way humans are hard wired. We love to criticise.

RE non-scoring, Mr Gasgroin: Adam also scored one goal - it may not count as it was a penalty OR it must count as it was a League match. Adam was not selected as a striker that day.

I remember lots of comments on this forum, and other social media, after the home game against Kiddermminster last year, saying Bliss was just the type of striker we needed and we should put a bid in. My thoughts at the time were 'really? based on one game?' - he had scored a good goal but I couldn't remember much else he did in that game. I expect a lot of the ones that were screaming for us to sign him are the same ones that have been putting him down now. We have our fair share of clots out there: the ones that give an ironic cheer when Bliss wins a header; similar treatment to goalkeepers; negative comments about Taylor, and a fair share of others over the years. How exactly is this supposed to help the team? Why is it that even when we have a successful team people feel the need to focus on someone they think is crap or not as good as others? Bliss was raw, he was a trier, he hasn't really been given much of a chance, he may not be the one for us now, but he was part of a promotion winning team. Bliss, if we've seen the last of you in a Rovers shirt, thank you for the part you played in restoring our League status. well said

This is getting hard to follow, I thought we could only use appearances where a player was used as a striker. Plenty of other players mentioned on this thread who have scored at least 1 goal, this is beginning to look like I have my very own juvenile troll.
