ADEN FLINT. Defender extraordinaire. Chipped in with some useful goals. NO YELLOW CARDS NO RED CARDS NO OWN GOALS PLAYER OF THE SEASON TO DATE!
He has been totes awesome this season, and is playing at a much more consistent level to the somewhat clumsy defender we signed originally Fair play to him - star man !
What a difference a season makes because when he arrived he got a lot of bad comments. Perhaps SC has boosted his personal self-worth and his confidence and his commitment to the task have skyrocketed.
SC reminds me of Cloughy a bit. When Clough joined Forest he inherited a few donkeys, and a few sleeping giants such as Robertson. Robertson was overweight and under motivated, but Clough could see the potential there and went to work on him. Robertson starred for Scotland in Argentina, and Clough made a player of him, as the boss did for many of the players at the European champions. Lloyd, Birtles, O'Neil etc. The best managers have the ability to bring the best out of their players, something Cotterill has been doing all this season for us. Of course Cotts will ultimately be judged, as Johnson was before him, on next season and the charge for the Premiership. Let us hope in that outcome, that his achievements this term will not be forgotten...
