No. It's not possible to do worse.

McBean or Elton should be given a chance now. Vickery is offering us nothing. Mcbean is a good crumber too.

Mcbean for all his natural ability worries me with his lack of aerial power

Anyone could try and be worse than Sickery.
It's a tall order and a challenge but if they give it a crack rest assured they are at the right club. :help

Beginning to think that some of the statues on the isle of man could do better than some of the spuds representing the club

Has been a better option than Vickery since about halfway through last year.

Was at the ressies yesterday. Elton showed a bit down back. McBean is miles off it at VFL level atm. I'd go Elton for Astbury, Grimes for Chaplin. Get rid of Vickery for another mid rotation. Or just play a man down.

The statue of liability is, in Damien's mind, a big part of his theory.
I use theory In place of game plan,as that's what it is in his case.

Saying McBean is miles off it? If you compared him to young Daniher at Ess could he be rawer of skinnier? They are persevering with Daniher, giving him confidence and it is starting to pay off. IMOHHHHHO we should be doing the same with McBean and give him a go.

Go read the bummer forums and how they bag the poor young kid, it's disgraceful and we would do the same if we played McBean

I like the idea of playing a man down
Might benefit us
That's how bad Vickery is
