Christmas is a commercial whore fest that has no meaning other than spending money you haven't got. 🤑

The way he used those Scottish snake hips to swivel through SHA, twerking will come naturally to him surely? ;)

"🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AVFCOfficial full-back Alan Hutton has won the #SkyBetChampionship Goal of the Month for November for his memorising solo goal against rivals @BCFC!"

https://twitter.com/SkyBetChamp/status/1075994272766152704


Hutton said: “It's a real pleasure to have been awarded Goal of the Month - thank you to everyone who voted for me.

“It was one of those 'once in a lifetime' goals. When you add that to the occasion it was a very special moment for me personally.

“I've never scored a goal like it and I'll probably never score another like it ever again!”

Terrible defensive display that cost us the game. Between him and Elmo they’ve cost us about 6 points of late.

I’m convinced we have the worst full backs in the division. Aside from the odd flash of brilliance they are both complete liabilities. Toss in Taylor too. We literally need 2 of each side for next season.

Yep, they'd got in behind him 4-5 times before that but we just haven't got the option to replace him. Once we do get a left back I hope we don't just automatically shift him to the right because Bree did pretty well today and deserves to keep his spot.

I’d agree although I think Bree has promise and looks decent.

One thing is attacking and leaving space behind (which should be covered by the defensive midfielder) but for their first goal not only was he caught out in an attacking position with no cover, he raced back and then switched off. If he'd carried on he could have cut out the ball across the box thus preventing the goal. Both he and Horrihane were responsible with their lack of defending. Dean Smith needs to share the blame and bring some much needed discipline to Hutton's game. A left back at left back might be a better alternative.

Oh Alan.

If his forward surges led to anything consistently you'd probably be able to forgive some of his woeful defensive positioning. But 99% of the time they don't obviously.

He's just a very very poor footballer that gets a freebie on graft and attitude alone.

Every opposition team we play know how to play against us, and most of time it'll be 'attack Hutton' or let him have the ball and get ready to break once he loses it up field. It's embarrassingly bad at times

His performance yesterday struck me as having an air of him knowing his time is up. Bree is ahead of him at right back, and a left back must surely be arriving imminently.
