I have never gone at McBurnie until now, but I think he is a lost cause. What's really interesting is how far short of ready Jebbo must be. Hecky isn't stupid, so Jebbo must really be off the mark to not be getting on the pitch. I hope that changes really soon.
I was pissed off with McBurnie even from pre-game yesterday. He doesn't even put the effort in during warm up. Two cones, ten metres apart, players shuttle running between them, touching each cone (or beyond it) with their foot, before running to the opposite cone. Basic shit that's done on a field from 4yo up. He doesn't even manage that. He does as little as possible, turning before he gets to the cone. There's no fire in him to give 100% and when you are so out of form, 100% is the minimum (and yeah, I know, maximum). It's only a little thing, but all the little things combined have added up to a shit #9. The fact he hasn't allowed Billy's workrate to rub off on him at all, for me, means I'm giving up on him.
