People obsess about that goal we conceded because of the timing of it. The fact that we couldn't score with 30+ minutes against 10 men has a) been forgotten and b) more damning to the team.

Mostyn6 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 26 minutes ago, PodgeyRam said: Robbie Savage was and still is and underrated footballer. People get caught up remembering his antics, but he played his role well in the rebuilding seasons under Clough. He took the pressure off the young team Clough was assembling, was a good influence around the dressing room and was actually a decent passer of the ball. this thread is about unpopular opinions, not shocking mistruths. Yes he was underrated, but had already declined by the time he arrived here. He never got near the ball and his direct opponent was invariably man of the match. He was ineffective and mostly (apart from the first handful of games when NC re-introduced him to the team) ill-disciplined positionally. He didn't have the pace or fitness to go roaming all around the pitch. He spent 3 seasons chasing shadows, and backpasses to the oppo keeper, to look busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vydra will go down as one of our worst ever signings when considering his value and output. A like for the Dawkins comment. He was class. Vydra will come good.

Carl Sagan Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Great footballer but there was no one else like it for sucking all the joy and love out of any game/season. Technnically I suppose the term would be "incubus" but I think it's got a better ring simply to say "succubus". I could not stand listening to him. Even when we appeared almost mathematical certainties for automatic promotion, he was doubting we'd sneak into the playoffs. Edit: this was meant to be quoting @RadioactiveWastesaying "I'd like Ted Mcminn back in that role." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
