Towards the back end of last week, ahead of the fixture against table-topping Burnley, I asked that, at least for the duration of the game, we gave those in orange our utmost support.
The article – its-time-to-get-behind-all-those-in-orange – promoted, in the comment facility, a healthy debate.
The article also contained a poll but, for once, I’m not going to publish the results, instead I’m going to concentrate on the fact that one player, who constantly gets criticised by the support and who was named in the reference poll, gave a performance yesterday, against Burnley, that earned him the ‘Player of the Match’ accolade.
Indeed, such was his performance, social media was alive with posts offering praise:
No one gunna look happy Winning motm in a defeat but you were immense PRM today.

Playing better with every game, under RE. Keep it up Pelly. 💪🏼

It’s interesting to note that since Rob Edwards took over the managerial hot seat, from the previous incumbent, Pelly has benefitted enormously, the shackles appear to have been cast aside, he’s retained full fitness and uses his strengths to the teams advantage.
Hopefully, Pelly can continue in this rich vein of form, steer clear of injuries and continue to pick up ‘Player of the Match’ awards.

I’m still expecting the usual comments on here mh.
me too 🙂
Talking about Pelly in an objective manner is more polarising than the whole ‘woke v conservative’ battleground.
Having been slammed as both a Pelly Lover and a Pelly Hater, I will abstain from now on 😉
Come on boys, we lost, it must have been pelly fault, it always is even if he doesn’t play. If his cross to adebayo was better he wouldn’t of missed…..lol…..
Yeah maybe we should have resigned nj he would have got a better cross in for ade lol if he stayed fit enough lol only 10 mins
Probably tripped over his ego…..
