Maradona was incredibly one footed. LYP was just bad.
Yes agree although they both had self destruct buttons that were often pushed.
Please correct me. We played 5 up front against Woolwich and beat them 5 -1 at home not sure if same season.
BAE was very good for us. I can't remember him having a bad game. I thought he raised his level in the Champs League too.
He was also the most genuine, honest footballer. He set up a foundation following the London riots and also set up a charity to help restore the sight of people in Africa.
A legend, and I'm proud that we share the same birthday.

But you probably come pretty close!
Of course I fucking don't... I'm saying that in the heat of 'battle' (as Professional footballers like to think of themselves in) it can be seen a sign of weakness... which the opposition are usually more than happy to take advantage of!
It's not seeing a man cry I have a problem with, (I weep like a baby at most Nature programme when you know what's coming to the poor little seal pup...) It's having that feeling that my team are at a disadvantage somehow
because our 'keeper can't control his emotions until the final whistle.
It's exactly the same as if a player absolutely loses it during a game and lashes out... it shows weakness, and a lack of discipline... and often ends up in a red card, and subsequently putting his team-mates at a disadvantage.
'Losing it' in any way shows you are vulnerable... and in this dog-eat-dog world of Professional sport, players (unfortunately) can't afford to do that, without the team being punished for it.
Of course I don't think Gomes is a wuss for crying on the pitch... but I am pretty sure we lost that match against Stoke... just saying!
(although on reflection, I think he broke a rib, which probably didn't help his mood!!)
Functional is kinder
I went to his "motor museum" once. It was shite.
To be honest, I rather see a keeper cry than have a silly smirk on their face after letting in a pea roller...yes, I'm talking about Walker!
Def at home, under Ossie. I was there and we were 3 up in 15 mins.
Jimmy Savile did a lot for charity too.
Anyway, Assou Ekotto was not bad going forward but he sold the jerseys with naive passing and being out of position often. I felt he and Gomes sullied that era for us.
I like to support retired greyhounds charities, is that the cunt's charity? What d'ye reckon? I mean, they're just fucken dugs when all is said and done. Dugs. Auld dugs.
Wish I cd give you 10 agrees for Berti
IMO our worst ever player
Gave the term 'journeyman ' a bad name
Wonder how much we paid him
Total cunt
I noticed Rebrov getting some stick
He was a disappointment true but I thought a tidy player and not his fault that we didn't have a particularly good side at that time
I saw him score a decent goal at Coventry and even though we lost (2-1 I think) he was the stand out player on the pitch (not difficult I suppose) and some Sky Blues fans I got chatting with admitted as much
All I really remember about walker is him diving about with his floppy hair. I don't remember ever being in danger of him being 'poached'
Benny's tracking back was non existant
Arry used to pull his hair out (not Benny's)
Hmm..
In 93/94, we lost 1-0 at the lane, and drew 1-1 at Highbury - we didn't meet them in a cup
In 94/95 Ossie got sacked before we played them
Even in 92/93 under Clemence/Livermore, we beat them both times, but they were 1-0 and 3-1.
The only other Ossie big win was 5-0 to Oldham at home in the early stages of 93/94. We were 3-0 up by 10 mins in that one, so could be that?
Saw your name as the poster, saw you had Son as number one on your list, and then saw the 16 disagrees. You get people hook, line, and sinker don't you?
