Liam Graham

Howieson didn't get a game here and there though did he - just Ressies. This was a full 90 in the Football League Trophy.

Howieson did play a few games for Burnley before his debut off the bench before they got promoted.

Yeah sorry was talking England

He got capped at the time as he deserved it but Cam's footie has definitely gone backwards.  Surely we're better off bringing the likes of Liam in over a kid playing division 2 Northern League football.

Maybe there's eligibility issues cos unless he has NZ lineage he'd need an exemption to play for NZ.

Jolly good that's what we like to hear! :)

On the bench and not required, as Chesterfield draw 0-0 away to Oldham.

Still yet to make his official first team debut I think.

Full 90 this morning in a 2-1 loss away at Bury

Now we can start considering him as an option.

Seems he played left back

The AW's might need one this upcoming camp after Doyle's hammy problems....

He's on A-Hud's radar at least - mentioned him as a guy no one knows about on Veitch recently. 

Depth chart at RB probably goes Roux-Boxall-Fenton-Colvey, and at LB Wynne-Doyle-Colvey. Hard to chuck this guy in without having seen him. Nikko Boxall another unknown who seems to play a bit at both FB positions. 

Hudson's also tried Harshae Raniga (where art thou?) and Liam Higgins in the past.

Who else is hanging around at Stirling Sports Prem level? Anthony Hobbs? Andrew Milne?

Wynne, Doyle, Colvey, Fenton all injured at the moment. You'd think he'd at least get a look in if they don't recover in time.

due logistic reasons Raniga or Sinclair should be ahead of him

Where does Raniga play (what team)? And Sinclair is Jack Henry-Sinclair? There are adult fullbacks who should get a go befoe him, surely.

Re logistics its shorter plane flight UK to stateside than NZ to the US of A - so don't follow your logic at all.  Plus Graham's actually playing in season. Stirling Sports Prem has yet to start.

If Doyle, Wynne, Colvey, Fenton are all out with injury - then Graham must come into the AWs squad reckoning. League One is a pretty reasonable comp, to be playing in - even if he has only started the one game.

It seems Fenton might be OK.. he played 10 mins v CCM in the weekend. But still.... very short at FB.

we are talking Hudson here, i know there are better fullbacks but my opinion is based in previous squads selections

logistic to see him play, not to take him to the US. i'm trying to be realistic, just wait and see

Because he's a fullback and fit? We can't be annoyed when people pull out and at the same hand out waivers - would be a huge middle finger to the Nix if nothing else.

TV does raise a valid point. Chesterfield play a League One game on 9th October - so Graham would miss at least one game if picked for these 2 friendlies.

He's obviously only really on of the edge of the first team squad currently (played one game) - so maybe better for his future that Hudson brings him in later in the year for a look with some of the WC qualifiers v Islands.

Liam starts v Gillingham today in League One match

Played the full match as Chesterfield let a 3-1 lead slip to draw 3-3 in the 96th minute.

He is in the All Whites squad for the US tour according to this article, so congratulations Liam!

Love how benevolent the FFA makes the Football League look.

The football League allows its players to play internationals unlike the A-League.  If a squad has enough players on int. duty, the match will be postponed.  

Aussie is about the only place in the world where half a team can be on duty but the match still goes ahead.  :-s

Graham: Hopefully I've Proved Myself

An article from Chesterfield's Website

surely its in the mix now ;) 

Only for a very short time I suggest !!

well, i was wrong, i admit my mistake... he's in the squad, hope he get some game time 

Graham unfortunately hasn't played a game since that 1–0 loss. On 15 October he was on the bench in a 1–0 loss away to Southend United. On 18 October he didn't feature in the squad in a 1–0 loss at home to Fleetwood Town. On 22 October he was on the bench again in a 3–0 home loss against Scodhorpe United. 

After being in 2nd position in the 3rd matchday and 11th in the 10th matchday Chesterfield now find themselves in 23rd position. Chesterfield are 4 points away from not being in the relegation spots with only Shrewsbury being below them. Coventry City and Oldham Athletic are on 15 points, Chesterfield on 12 and Shrewsbury on 10.

Their next match is on Saturday away to Charlton who find themselves in 17th position. Hopefully Graham is given a go in this match given their recent failures and he can have a positive impact.

Graham back in the playing eleven (played in midfield) as Chesterfield lost 0-1 to Charlton at The Valley, in front of 10,000 South Londoners. Graham picked up a yellow card.

Chesterfield now firmly in relegation zone in 23rd spot, though have a game in hand over most of the teams in League One.

Chesterfield play on 14th Nov, so Graham would miss that game if picked in AWs squad verus New Caledonia. With Storm Roux (admittedly he plays on the right and Graham on the left) now available, wonder Graham maybe left in the UK
