Why not have Elliot Minchella as sub, I'm sure he was 18th man and warmed up with the team....

I'm just wondering re: all the BMcD complaints on this issue - are any of you gold season ticket members? When i had a one-off ticket after Broncos, he was physically loitering around and presumably available to be asked this question (whether one-to-one or in 'heckle questions from the crowd as he talks about the game' fashion).

I'm not sure if some heavies (maybe including Hall - in which case, 1 out of 3 times, he'd miss you

) would be involved and escort you out, but it seems that people are physically there after games at least for you to ask the question.

So why not? If i am in the long bar post-match anytime soon, i'd ask why he was dressed like a boxer pre-match, in hat, hood up and gloves all game, like some gangster-wannabe?

Imagine it'd cut through a lot of speculation on here quite quickly, if someone just asked. As pointed out by someone - the media aren't, so why don't 'you'?

I imagine you'd get a pretty non-specific answer of there was not a suitable part of the game for that interchnage based on how the game was going

Last time someone tried heckling him in the Long Bar he finished his little speech without taking his gaze off the heckling in question. After he wrapped up he made a bee-line for across the room, eyeballing him all the way. Feckwit genuinely almost shat himself. But once he got to him McDermott just said, fairly aggressively admittedly, "we alright mate?"

"Oh yeah, yeah". replied.

"Good". And off he walked.

So if you're going to ask a question, make sure it isn't the kind of bollox that loser was spouting.

Sounds like the queries on here re: only using 3 subs are fairly genuine and not 'bollox' queries though.

Unfortunately for BMcD when you are coach and 'top of the tower' you put yourself in the firing line for people to ask questions - can't have it both ways in my view.

Had i have realised his tendency to do this (i've not noticed it until reading all the comments on here) i could've asked him a fortnight ago when he nearly walked into me as he wasn't watching where i was going walking through the car park!

You see, I have defended his decisions this season, and said I am pleased he has learnt from previous mistakes. But that example you give above, is exactly why I really can not take to this fella. He really does think he is something special and has a very big ego problem. The guy heckling was a waste of space (heckling is poor game, should have just made his point), if he thought he had a point he should have stuck to it, and see how McDermott handled himself then.
