To be fair to Billy Boy, he genuinely did play well on Saturday. I was so surprised that he looked to have a decent touch, he even went past a couple of the Posh defenders at one point.
My gut feel is he's not good enough, given the last 2 years of shite he's shown us, but that said, he was injured when he arrived and never had a proper pre-season. Then to come in halfway through is quite tough... played shite and had no confidence.
Wasn't it about this stage of last season McCormack bagged his first few goals? A bit of confidence seemed to do the trick for him and he's our top scorer this season. I'd like to see Billy get a few starts in over the next few weeks and just see. This is not a defence of him and his playing abilities, and if it's a choice between keeping him or most of our other players I'd get rid, but I would like to see him have a chance now.
