I don;t agree he deserved to be dropped. i do agree Pritchard has been treated badly and
just to be accurate I forgot he actually started at Derby (a)so its 26th November since he started not 5th November although he was dropped for the QPR game for no apparent reason.
Third goal at Reading was not acceptable but hardly that bad, we had 10 men and the game was gone and there was another defender who should have got closer. Brady does worse about 3 times in every game. All of our players have done that too often this season so singling out that incident is not really fair when he's actually one of the better players for work rate and tracking back generally.
We can argue all day about whether he should or should not have been starting during this period but the point is more about Neil trying to claim that his performance against Derby was down to his great management of the player when we all know that's not the case.
