There is no doubt he never got a fair run. But it’s also no certainty he was good enough. He played a role that we need and lack but you have to be a brilliant one touch player to make it your own. Played out of position in a few games he fumbled a lot and looked off the pace.Our treatment of Hibberd was amateur hour. We're about to take on Kennedy and Parker. Hibberd available could have meant Stringer can stay in the f50.
Don’t torture yourself by being sure he was a solution to the Kennedy problem. Maybe he was - but remember the club saw him on the training track enough to have insight into his ceiling that we maybe don’t.
