He is spot on. We do have to accept he is just 19 and will fail sometimes.

I agree. But to be honest I haven't seen any complaints about him so far. He's proven himself to be a very talented young player. Sure there might be portions of games where he is pretty quiet or struggling to get into the game, but as Jimmy says, he's only 19, he's still developing. And I think most, if not all, those that have watched him understand that. Personally I like the kid, I think he's probably the brightest prospect to come through our ranks since Ray Jones, and I'd like to see him get more game time.

He is one of the reasons why I find this season as exciting as any of the few last ones.

I haven't seen anyone on forums complain but I have heard a few at games whining about him. Really great to see kids having a home grown player on their shirt.

You always get the odd idiot at games mate. There's a guy in R block who sits near me who does absolutely nothing but yell obscenities about Jimmy. The bloke barely makes a sound when we're playing well, barely even celebrates when we score. But as soon as the other team have possession, he starts with the moaning and the insults. He did the same towards Austin in the games he didn't score for us. Absolute weapon of the highest order.

The only complaint I have heard on here is that maybe he shouldn't start and would be better coming on as a sub. That isn't really a complaint but is constructive.

Who is being impatient clueless Jim? Other than the odd idiot at games, he's been well supported.

Nkce to see your softening a bit towards him a tad by leaving out the clown part of his name after five unbeaten mate.

Whereabouts in R Block are you Ginge? I'm there as well

[LoftusRoadLad]

Jimmy is spot on. Learning positional sense and preserving energy takes time. He will be a handful towards the end of season.

[MYU]

Even if we could find one little gem from our youth a season, I'd be over the moon.

I'd like to see more of him in the last 15 to 20 minutes, he has pace.

Two so far. One starting today.

Where you come up the stairs to the block, go right and immediately along the row, I'm round there.
