I'm a big fan of Gibbs but asking him to play that holding role against Watfords's

Watford's experienced midfield was a case of big against men. Smith changed it at halftime and we did at least look better in the second half. Hopefully it won't dent Gibbs confidence too much as I believe he has a great future.

        I’ve never seen a player play as badly as he did when he came on last night (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 11:18:30
