I actually feel sorry for Beckford there is no service to him and he's left to play up front on his own. We have 2 wingers sat on the bench twiddling their thumbs whilst we have a prolific goalscorer on the pitch with no service, its laughable, it beggars belief. Robins will get us relegated at this rate. If we'd STARTED with Ward and Scannell, we'd have lost by 3 or 4....its absolutely the right thing to do what Robins did and pack that midfield out against a team like Hull and try and kill the game. It more or less worked other than a very poor conceded goal. Bollox talked here - simply it didnt work - Robins to blame along with those workshy overpaid charlatans

Lee shows more effort and passion, why do so many town fans seem to really rate Beckford ?? he has scored the odd goal, the rest of all the other games he goes missing and doesnt look bothered imo. Lee would have put himself about and battled, who knows he might of nicked one ?

..or fallen on the floor and then got sent off.
They're both poor really..but to say Lee is ten times the player Beckford is is delusional.

Remind me how many league goals he's scored in the last 3 seasons? Beckford didn't do himself any favours yesterday and its blatantly obvious he's not the sort of player to run round like a headless chicken, but if he gets service, he will score goals. When he doesn't (like yesterday), he's invisible. To suggest Lee is a better option than Beckford though is simply laughable - IMO.

Only time I saw Beckford make a run yesterday was when he was being subbed off.
Says it all.

Have to agree with the title of this thread, the sooner Jermaine Beckford leaves Huddersfield for good the better imo. Terrible footballer who is massively overrated. Personally I don't care how badly the team is playing or how much the crowd are on the players backs, they should all give 100% EVERY WEEK. I have NEVER seen Beckford give anywhere near 100% for town, in fact all he offers are lazy half arsed performances, where he will not move to receive the ball, and whines and moans if the ball isn't played directly into his feet. his lack of movement is shocking and lack of effort is unacceptable. When he does get the ball he cant pass the thing to a town player to save his life, he gives it away or plays it straight out for a throw in practically every time. Yes he has scored a couple of goals, but still less that all the other strikers in the team apart from Alan Lee, which is shocking from a 'proven goalscorer'. Beckford is simply a passenger in this team and we are not in a situation where we can afford to carry passengers, we need 11 hard workers who will put in a shift and give 150%. I really do fail to see where this talented footballer is and i certainly cant see the 'goalscorer' were supposed to have signed here. Beckford is not fit to wear the blue and white stripes in my opinion, we need team players at this club, which is something Beckford has proved once again he isn't. Totally understand the view that Alan Lee is twice the player Beckford is, although to be fair id still rather see Lee on the bench and Novak or Theo partnering Vaughan, every single one of them are a better option that Beckford

UTT So, its sensible just because it agrees with your view is it? There are so many stats to prove that Beckford is a better option than Lee, that I can't be arsed quoting them. His winning goals against Wolves, Barnsly & Birmingham earlier in the season weren't gifted on a 'gold wrapped plate'. They were all perfect examples to show what he can do, given the right service. You've also got to bear in mind he's only just back from a bad hamstring injury. I'm still waiting for you to tell me how many league goals Lee has scored in the last 3 seasons?

Can see this from points of view to be honest ,,,although have to say the service was non existant,considering the pre match interview with Robins he said a quick passing game ,well i didnt see any of that as didnt get chance to attack for long periods of times and when we did we just didnt look dangerous,i mean lobbing it in and hopping to win it against 3 big centre backs.
Further more,what does my head in about town at the minute is the amount of time we gave them in midfield,we was watching them pass it along midfield there was no pressure no tackling no hass;ing it was like stand of at least 2 yards watching them.As soon as we got it BANG we have someone on us straight away either tackle or harried or hassled...get it every time.IMO we dont win the midfield battle in any game we are gonna ose the majoity of the games as we cant create chance and cant defend our own goal.
Finally would just like to add we need to start with Scannell down wing this lad deserves to start and has the ability to beat people,unlike Danny Ward who just doesnt look like he can beat a man anymore ,to me looks like he has lost a yard of pace and maybe an option moving in centre mid as he is good at passing ball and got hell of a shot and doesnt have to beat a man just needs to work back n forth.We need to supply CROSSES to frontmen either it be high or low to give them a chance not high 40 yard hoof balls thats no type of service.Said for few season since dare i say it since LC left we have not got a particular style of play we go out and just play as individuals not as a team.
Anyway come on town lets get over line and get a good pre season under belt

We aren't good enough to start with two strikers. We need to deploy a 4231/451 formation so that we don't get overrun in midfield. That leaves a fulcrum of Vaughan or Beckford. Yesterday's performance epitomised the lack of creativity in the team. Both Beckford AND Vaughan were isolated. We played in 3 rigid lines, offering no sign of integration or imagination.
Posters suggesting that Novak and Alan Lee are better than Beckford should be banned for sheer stupidity.

One word Static If Beckford actually tried moving into space once or twice then perhaps we might find him more often. Instead, he just stands still giving the man with the ball very little option

Lee would have put himself about and battled So? He still would've been shit while 'putting himself about' i.e. giving away needless free kicks and failing to jump for any header

The sad thing is that I think that we would of started with that very same line up & system regardless of who we were playing yesterday.
When the time comes and we need to create chances & win how easy will it be for the players to flip the switch?

Scannell needs to start every game, and we need to put much more emphasis on getting the ball into the box.
