But is it true?  I read it was a development squad game where most of the players have to be under 21.  If that's the case it's quite normal for first team fringe players to be given some match practice.

alright name me 20 midfielders better then shoot away 

he controls games passes good first touch and a gaurentee most league one clubs would snap him up tell me who's better then

He has a great first touch, holds the ball well..... then doesn't do a lot with it.  How many goals has he created this season?  He is weak defensively and doesn't cover much ground, meaning we need a 5 man midfield to accommodate him which weakens other areas.  I would select him in my starting eleven, but only because we don't have anyone better.

sorry but I think 99% of fans would disagree with you about abroah no disrespect you have you're view and you're entitled to voice it but sorry abroah could easily snap a move to a better team.

Snidjers better then Campbell and more bulkier abroah better then milsom and Thompson.

they should play in these reserves games not the Dutch lads mentioned who are better then the others

How can you forget aborah tracking back ? His sliding tackles are as good as Paul scholes , he tracks back more than people care to remember, I can't remember the last game he played fully fit, but it was before Barnet, we didn't play him far enough forward to be a goal threat or create many chances because he had to babysit the back four

I haven't seen enough games that other teams have played to name a specific 20, but most teams that have visited Meadow Lane this season have had better players in midfield than Aborah.  Even Dagenham & Redbridge had Matt Richards who totally controlled the second half on Tuesday.  Aborah has some impressive tricks and some classy moves but they're invariably in our half and very rarely hurt the opposition.  If he's that good why has he played so few games for a player approaching 29?  He never lasts long at a club.  I would guess that if any other club had made an offer he would be gone by now.  If we had a Neal Bishop type alongside him in the middle he might be a real asset, but with the players we've got he's a bit of a luxury.  It's all about opinions, and mine is that Aborah isn't anywhere near as good as some of you think he is.

What right do you have to tell me I'm wrong?  You're not my Granddaughter.

The one thing I really like about Aborah is his strength on the ball, it is nearly impossible to shrug him off it, but yes he does need a Neil Bishop style player in order to play in a 442.

At the moment we need to play a certain formation for him to be effective, but to be honest, I would love us to play that way rather than the shambles and dross I'm currently watching.

Whether or not there are 20 midfielders better than him in league 2, its my opinion there aren't two central midfield players better than him at Notts, hence he ought to be playing.

I'd probably agree with you there, but in a 2 man central midfield who would you play alongside him that wouldn't allow the opposition an easy ride?

Not disciplined enough to play alongside Aborah in a 442, we would have to bring a player in on loan.

Sorry Elite you are so wrong, don't think you know as much as you think you know!

I suppose only the future will answer that one.  It looks fairly likely that Aborah has played his last game for Notts, so we'll have to see where he goes next.  I'll just ask again though that if he is so good, why has he made only 129 starts in 12 seasons, and why has he never lasted very long at any of his 10 clubs?  Surely such a great player would have had a better career than he's managed?

When I first started PON, I took to handing out flyers with my two eldest children (I've always been thankful and lucky to have them) - I tried to offer a flyer to a fan who responded 'Sorry I'm just a fan'. I never really understood the difference between supporter/fan - for me they meant the same thing. Until I went to a game a few years back I realised the difference.

I really don't blame Jamie Fullarton, and this mess we are is becoming pathetic.

There's only one resolution and this will fix hopefully 90% of what's wrong with the club we support. For the record, I don't agree with fans having their opinions suppressed, there's nothing wrong with a 'Fullarton Out' banner at all - yet I'm afraid I think the person who deserves some of the blame has since walked. I guess it's safe when you have a job pre-lined up, that enables to use the words 'resign'.

Let's not attack each other for having differing opinions.

At the end of the day, we are all this club has and will have for many years to come. Supporters/fans are what keeps a club 'alive' and none of this, he said, she said. your right, your wrong.

If this is true, he should never have been employed at Notts
