steve davies obscures the keepers view

[Éire Ram]

Reminded me of the Scholes volley against Bradford a few years ago, hopefully he can start replicating that on a more consistent basis from now on.

Bart time.

Jamie Ward was already celebrating before it went in

Looking at that, how on earth did Davies keep that ball down. He was sliding and hit it leaning back with his leg stretching out. Technique was all wrong and this to me makes it a pure fluke........................not really what a fecking strike

Some footballers are just very good at kicking balls, and not much else...

He did crazy things with footballs when shooting at his previous clubs, and I can believe that he's struck a ball like that before. It's probably something he can do 1 in every 10 shots on the training ground but he probably sh4t his own pants when he did it in the actual game. Not a fluke, just quite lucky, I'd say.

I don't know who said what to Davies at half time but from one of the poorest performances I've ever seen in the first half he was absolutely on fire by the second, he looked like a different player. People say Clough can't inspire his team, and I was beginning to think that too, but on the basis of Tuesday night maybe he can.

I think i'm just going to have to accept that your the most optimistic fan, Ben Davies was not 'on fire' in the first or second half, very out of his depth and his dead ball speciality is well, not much of a speciality. Great strike though. Credit where its due, but no more than is due.

[Gary Teale]

Is Davies like a very poor mans Becks, tries hard, cant beat a man, not much skill or pace but has a good right foot.

You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate

As reek o' the rotten fens, whose loves I prize

As the dead carcasses of unburied men

That do corrupt my air, I banish you;

And here remain with your uncertainty!

Let every feeble rumour shake your hearts!

Your enemies, with nodding of their plumes,

Fan you into despair! Have the power still

To banish your defenders; till at length

Your ignorance, which finds not till it feels,

Making not reservation of yourselves,

Still your own foes, deliver you as most

Abated captives to some nation

That won you without blows! Despising,

For you, the city, thus I turn my back:

There is a world elsewhere.

Or, in other words, I find it flippin' well frustrating that fans turn against the manager, give weight to a movement to get rid, only to change their mind again within 45 minutes of a Tuesday night:)

Don't fanny around your point will ya Pete?

[Boycie]

Davies meant to cross it.

For those of little faith......

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master,

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breath a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Hope that's not you thinking I'm fickle!

I've been out-and-out Clough for 2 full seasons now, but our latest run put doubts in my mind about Clough's abilities. I'm human. 2 wins in 20 would make me question something about the club, surely? And I've never been fully behind the "Clough out" brigade, I never put my wait behind anything.

So to see that Clough is capable of turning things around and rallying the troops has put some of those doubts in my mind at rest.

Sorry for changing my opinion half way through a season . I don't get why anyone would sign up to a forum unless they were prepared to change their mind.

It wasn't just the strike though. It was clever link-ups with Brayford, a 1-on-1 chance (which a player at this level should have buried really) that he could of scored and far better crosses in the second half.

Besides, how does my opinion on the performance of two players in one match make me "the most optimistic fan"? :confused:
