Tony Pulis has told Pilgrims fans that they will have to be patient with Matt Derbyshire because ‘he is only a young kiddy’. Hmmm, the other players won’t take the mickey out of him in training following that now will they!?!
The teenage striker is currently on loan from Blackburn.
Pulis told the official site: ‘We do need that little injection of pace at times, and I brought Matty on, who’s got good pace, but he’s only a young kiddy and I don’t want a situation where the supporters’ expectations of Matty are higher than they should be. He’s a young kid playing in Championship football, and I would ask those people who were moaning and groaning just behind me to get Matty on to be a little bit patient.’
Finishing: ‘I know everybody gets frustrated, nobody more so than me, but he is only a young kiddy.’
