Crikey some miserable people on here....will take an ugly win.
still have questions over Hooper tho. Seems to be taking a long time to be getting fit.....anyone see the post match interview? Harry asked him how he was liking Wellington and he said “windy”. Wonder if he’s not loving it here
Wondering same. I know he apparently picked up a groin strain after his first start, but if you were a highly motivated very experienced footballer, wouldn't your fitness be further advanced by now.
A case of "I'm only really here on a temporary basis because I couldn't get a gig elsewhere, but at the first opportunity I'm back to The Championship when the body is right"?
Speculation of course, but is interesting that Ball who has spent most of his career at a level or two below (League One), on lower wages, and with a much lower profile, seems to have come to Wellington highly motivated and energised, like he wants to play for the Nix long term.
Suspect Hooper's fitness or lack of, will play a big part in how Nix's season finishes up.
