He's been fit for ages you tit, Gerrard has confirmed as much and he's been in and around the squad for quite some time. He's just got to prove he deserves game time as the gaffer has stated. He was also on the bench last night and is working his way in, will probably play a part on Saturday.I’m fed up hearing about him . Never fit .
The manager has stated he will be eased back in. Or are we just to go with "enough is enough"Fit as in not injured , but fit enough to play 90 minutes ?
Either way he’s getting a wage , a decent one , and has contributed the square root of Fck all in 2.5 years . Enough is enough .
Correct.For me rossiter, mccrorie, grezda, halliday, barisic and kent all start on Sunday if fit.

Great way to get him match fit....the 'never playing him even for 3 minutes' approach.
Enough is enough?
What do you suggest we do with him?
3 minutes isn't going to make a difference to match fitness.Great way to get him match fit....the 'never playing him even for 3 minutes' approach.

See post above.... ^Why’s he not playing then? Not even minutes off the bench.

I think Sunday Stevie G will make big changes. I would bring everyone mentioned into team and put young Dallas on the bench. He’s scoring for fun at the moment in the ReservesFor me rossiter, mccrorie, grezda, halliday, barisic and kent all start on Sunday if fit.
Is Dundee not a far easier game than the Sheep for him to play a significant amount of football and ease himself in? Or does the table lie? Playing a few minutes vs the Sheep would do NOTHING for match fitness. The Sheep are dirty bastards who will go in extra hard.You're all over the place here. How can he START a league game we need to win away from home when he has zero minutes football this season? The longer he doesn't play the LESS likely he is to be a go-to player.

A significant amount of a game that wasn’t so crucial - like when we were comfortabley beating a 10man Motherwell??? He never got a sniff then either.
Any minutes on the pitch is better than no minutes. Agreed that, 3 mins against Aberdeen isn’t ideal - but there was the livi game which we controlled start to finish. Then there was the St Mirren game (which should’ve been comfortable “on paper” as you’ve alluded to with sunday’s game against Dundee). Rossiter never got a sniff of any of these “easy” games.
Exactly, yet some on here would rather throw him out for 10 minutes when he needs easing in, against thugs like the sheep or Murderwell have. Because seeing him halved like he was vs Hibs at the end of last season makes a great amount of fucking sense.I have to say I think giving him 5/10 minutes now and then is just chucking him under a bus rather than building fitness - I don't know what kind of fitness that would build?
I really thought we'd be seeing him getting 20/30 minutes off the bench, but just not happening.Why’s he not playing then? Not even minutes off the bench.
Are Motherwell's thugs really opposition to throw in a player with an injury history, he'd played for the Reserves prior to St Mirren.

Only the manager and backroom staff really know what the script is with Jordan Rossiter.
Or do you know better?
Very strange to say the least.Absolutely mate. I thought the same. Even moreso because we’ve had opportunities to do so, plus he’s not in the European squad so there is scope to freshen things up with him.

Hes better than coulibally and jack but hel just never be fit enough.
No idea.Why’s he not playing then? Not even minutes off the bench.
I said he's a saviour?Stop pretending he’s some sort of savour “ once fit” would be a start . Pay him off ? Move him on? Would anyone take him? I don’t know that’s the football departments highly paid decision to make.
But he isn’t going to become a regular in our first team .
Sadly, that much is clear . It hasn’t worked .
He is starting to look a little chris vinnicombe
No idea.
I'm not the manager, I'm only stating he's fit.
So he was on the bench last night but not fit?Players don’t play because:
1. not fit
2. not good enough
3. tactical reasons
It can’t be tactical reasons as we’re crying out for someone like Rossiter in the midfield. Plus we could do with freshinging things up in the engine room and Rossiter is the perfect candidate since he’s not in the europa league squad.
the title decider? looks like that was Tam Cowan. they were around at the same time, young left backsDid he play against the Sheep in the Hateley game, or is my memory playing tricks?
So he was on the bench last night but not fit?
Aye ok mate.It’s possible that he was the best of a bad lot (ie fittest of an unfit lot)?????
Hate that word "Mongo" mate. Shouldn't be used on here.He was on the bench last night.
Won't stop the resident mongo's talking shite though.
