I appreciate there's a lot to be said for all the other stuff that creates some nice looking stats but cometh the hour cometh the man, zero time to go and his contributions in every other respect are so minute there's no point measuring them and he puts it in the net.
Jason Cummings, Hammer of the Hertz and they let him go for nothing.

Well done JC!
Scores a great goal then should have been booked for bouncing the ball in front of the ref???
If he gets to play he must keep the heid!!!

Goals DO win games.
Stubborn managers and players who run all day without any end product DONT!

There is obviously a problem between Neil Lennon and Jason Cummings. Dropping the guy after bringing him back last week was baffling. Despite that mental torment, the lad pitches in with the goal to save us from complete embarrassment. This needs to be sorted out pronto whatever it may be - over to you George Craig.

Even if you wanted more than goals out of Jason, it's not as if Boyle is providing it either. He is garbage.

He has offered more than goals this season, when he was in form his general play was very solid. Must start.

I don't know where this whole thing has came from that he offers nothing's
We are playing in the championship, we are not going to have the perfect striker.
Cummings would start for most teams in Scotland and a lot of teams down south want him. There is a reason for that.
Are any of our other strikers wanted by a team that would be classed as a step up?

We would have won if Jason had started, imo.

The boy has been even carrying us for the last 2 years. Would dread to think what we'd do without him, none of our other forwards has even half of his killer instinct in front of goal.

His touch after his goal that nearly gave him a tap in when holt missed his sitter was sublime. His movement absolutely petrified defenders.

I think Jason is more than a goalscorer particularly when you look at the other options and their ability to link the play. However, even if he was only about goals he would start every week for me because he is the best goalscorer at the club with only Graham looking like he can chip in any more than a goal every now and then. Holt is starting to look like he needs a compass to find the back of the net and Boyle can go months without scoring although to be fair to him he had a decent wee run in the middle of two baron spells.

Yes, but he brings more than that so I think the original question is fair.

Indeed, and to be clear, the point of my post was that I don't actually give a flying one about all the other stick he gets about the other contributions or perceived lack or same, twenty years on who remembers all the guys that were good at running about?
As a Tornadoes era romantic, I used to have a dig at Ally Macleod but when I look back he was the one I remember from that era, and you'd hardly call him industrious.

Yep, quarter of the way through the season if no one else is even approaching your top scorer in the goals scored stats it's an idea to keep picking him. Originally Posted by wookie70

JC has probably learned a lesson after being dropped. Hopefully he'll kick on and get even more goals.

He'll probably be back on the bench next week though. Originally Posted by lucky

Cummings should be straight into Lennon's office next week requesting a start on Saturday ...Boyle has done nothing last three games to deserve a starting slot ....

If Cummins doesn't start next week Lennon should get chased out the door.. we won't win the league without him in my opinion..

Apart from Jasons free kick and that one where Gray charged into the keeper there wasn't another shot on target. By anyone!! against Morton. Unbelievable.
To be fair, Lennon has said post match that he was considering starting Cummings and 'probably I should have'. He'll play him next week for sure.
