Anyone who puts up with paying good money for a crap product/service without complaining/seeking an explanation/redress is a mug! I would like to invite them to send me their bank account details and password so that I can pay their long lost inheritance into it for them!
A customer seeking an explanation and a company owing one are 2 very different things. The orignial post said that RFC owe the fans an explanation when in fact they do not.
My point was really that Harper appeared in the EP on Monday saying 'I had been ill for 3 days, felt awful on the day and was sick during the game' almost making an excuse that we lost!!! Well in my mind I would just like to hear what SC, KD and WD felt about playing a player not at his best in what was billed as a 'must win' game. Now the must win factor can be taken how you like it but the Keepy up and blue and whit stuff was set uup to get a result on Sunday, and we didn't!!
Surely a fit Bikey could have fitted in next to Matejovsky? as just one scenario. Harper could have been on the bench.
It just does not seem to have been the right thing to do, IMHO, thats all.
And just a side note but who fell over in the centre circle chasing back and therefore did not get back to pick up Young for the first goal? Answer: Harper!!!
It wasn't Harper who fell over though it was Matejovsky and he collided with Reo-Coker. Even if it was Harper Young wasn't his man to be tracking, it was Oster who he left for dead.
Having just watched the Reading World highlights Harper actually gave Oster a 10-15 yard headstart and probably ended up about 10-15 yards ahead of him as he made it into the box by as Young shot and Oster was nowhere to be seen.
If anything that goal just goes to show that Harper still had plenty of running in him and showed exactly why Coppell chose to play him.
