This is one of AOBs biggest weak points. He seems shithouse at using the bench and keeping fresh legs on the field throughout the 80. It's been a recurring issue since he got here, and has cost us matches.

I thought Hethrington was much improved later in the year and after reading the article in the Newcastle Herald last week I can completely understand why he was struggling earlier in the year. For those who didn’t see the article basically his newborn son was suffering from a condition called Tracheomalacia which impacts the airways and restricts breathing during sleep, he and his wife had to insert an airway tube into the baby’s nose each night just to keep him alive, apparently he and his wife were understandably sleep deprived and the kid went through several surgeries to fix the issue which luckily they managed to do so which is around the time Hethrington started to find some form.
It's so easy to be a keyboard warrior and hammer away at people these days. Hope his family is past the worst of it and his kid is healthy and happy!!! Wouldn't want to uproot his whole family and shaft him when he is going through something so serious. Hope the club deals with it the right way.
Luckily from all reports they’ve sorted the issues and the kid should be able to lead a perfectly normal life. The optimist in me hopes he can start 2025 fresh and strong because at his best he’s definitely an asset
Very sad to read this. But very happy to read further on that his little boy is going to be ok. Will be a huge off season for him. I'd like nothing more than to see him secure a front row berth here until he retires. I actually miss that aggression he showed as a youngster. I know it got him into hot water but i feel his fiery nature has been reigned in to the point it has affected his entire game.
I can’t imagine it’s too flash. We know firsthand what type of state Bennett leaves clubs in.
Nah, I'm pretty sure it is Dan. I've never actually bothered to look for a specific difference in their faces, but looking at a few photos I've just noticed with a 'resting' face their opposite eyebrows are raised higher above their eyes. Jacob's - right, Dan's - left.
Croker just resigned for 12 months.
