Terry praises Stevie

Both the Evening Times and Teletext carry TB’s words of praise for the young striker who is on loan from Spurs.


The squad at training

He played eighty nine minutes at East Fife last Tuesday and the full ninety against Dundee on Saturday and he is making every effort to impress.

The boss said: "That's two games on the trot Stevie has played for us and he works ever so hard along the front line with Dirk Lehmann and closes defenders down.

The crowd like him because he chases lost causes and he came so close to scoring at the end - to be honest, we were all waiting for the net to bulge. But unfortunately it didn't.

He is still learning but he put a good ball across for the goal so he can score goals and lay them on, too."

Most ‘Well fans agree that Mcfadden looks more comfortable just behind the front two so there may be an opening for Stevie. But he may have competition for the slot alongside Dirk Lehmann since the fabled Kemas must (surely!) recover from his injured ankle sometime soon.
