Lovell hasn't been given a fair crack. Amy will help wi that though. But the reason for that isn't really down to Mackie being picked ahead of him, he's been absent most of the season.
Folk do have to bear in mind the utter desperate performances that guy Lovell put in when he was given a chance, it really was dismal and distinctly lacking in application and effort. This has notabley changed of late but he was absolute dung for a long time.
The picking of Maguire ahead of anyone though (never mind Lovell) is without any shadow of a doubt the biggest scratch heed and shake heed moment I've experienced in all of Calderwood's time at AFC. I do not fucking get it.
