Injured obviously but would be in my starting 11 everytime when fit - was brilliant to see him on the pitch at the end with the team - cheers Joe 🍻

Don't fix it unless it's broken, no chance any one should just be coming straight back into the team at present. Same goes for Youan.
Keep players like him around. Popular guy who has bought into us and knows what it means. Can’t ask for much more.
What a guy . That’s what you need in the dressing room
. Joe gets it
Yup. NMW has been excellent since he's come back in the team and Triantis has been one of our best players (albeit not on top form yesterday).Quote:

Joe will get his chance again but we've been playing brilliantly without him so no need to change that.
Campbell took a few sore ones from them yesterday but kept going .. absolute warrior for us who bleeds green and white . Underrated player by fans at our club IMO .Quote:

Glad he's coming back to fitness and good scenes with him in the changing room at the end with the lads but why on earth would he be going straight back into this team? This run has been achieved without Newell for the most part and to just stick him straight back into the starting 11 would be disrespectful to the lads who have come in in his place. Campbell and NMW etc.
Hes going to have to wait his turn to get back into the team IMO
Loved when he was going into the changing room and said “Up the Hibs, you know the rest” in reference to his famous “Up the Hibs, **** them Jambo *******s” video. Will be good to have him back, although NMW and Levitt have both been better than I expected, NMW especially.
When Hoilett was coming on I was certain it was for Campbell as he looked like he was limping about but Gray was then passing all the messages on through him.Quote:

I’m looking forward to seeing JN back in the side but only expecting him to play for the last 20 minutes or so of a game to start off with so we can ease him back into match fitness. Of course, if SDG decides he should be a starter then that’s the end of the story as he’s the best judge but in general terms, if it ain’t broke, best not to meddle with it.
Aye, I had a chuckle 😃 at that, too.Quote:

The way it should be. Feel we’ve tried to accommodate in the past, that won’t happen going forward I don’t think.Quote:

Same, I actually thought he was already back in training.Quote:

Don’t see why he should, Newell played through injury when he really shouldn’t have been on the pitch as he wanted to help the team.Quote:

He will definitely need to fight for his place again though. The team's form while he's been out can't be ignored.
He shouldn’t. Neither should Youan though.Quote:

Not even remotely close considering Joe had been playing through an injury for the best part of 6 months.Quote:

Double hernia. Rudi had the same opQuote:
