    Have you seen him play ? I'm quietly impressed with him but perhaps my standards aren't as exacting as yours. I'm pretty confident he will progress.

    Didn't disrespect him as much as some but think Sylla will prove to be much better.

    Didn't think it was too bad last season. Probably more due to groundstaff's hard work than money spent though !

    Not as intrusive at rugby due to the "stop/start" nature of the game. It's not the refs that's the main problem, rather the officials who decide what to revue. Particularly apparent during France's games I thought.

    Not saying they're "harder" than anyone else but with an 8 year old I thought it best to avoid confrontation !

    ......spells better than some on here though !!

    What were your expectations when they signed initially ?

    The floodlights were the most modern thing around the ground when I started going in '63.

    Why bother watching a player perform when you can just rely on the all-seeing eye of Wikipedia to form YOUR opinion ?

    .....and us oldies get accused of living in the past !

    Amazes me that people can throw shit on social media and are outraged when they get a bit back. Not saying this is pertinent in this case just a general observation !

    Remember that night? as I took my 8 year old brother who was petrified in the Chaddy. Sat him on a barrier towards the left hand side and proceeded an abortive attempt to look "hard" ( well out of character ) before moving to the paddock. It was quite a few games before he consented to attend again and has blamed me ever since for his ill fated obsession.

    Rumour has it they did, it just wasn't enough.

    I'm guessing it will be 50% of ZERO, can't see him commanding a fee.

    Lennon and McCartney eat your heart out ! A commendable, if dated, effort.

    All this positivity is confusing. Am I really on OWTB ?

    Be careful with these ideas.....people on here will want to inspect your ID.

    Quite liked Hunt early days thinking he was playing out of position on the left but he didn't push on when played on the right and you didn't need to be Mystic Meg to see this happening. Don't know if it was just a clash of personalities with the owner ( which would obviously be the favourite excuse ) or that he lacked a bit of character to ignore his dispute and perform on the pitch when selected. Whatever the reason he had a poor season overall and has been a major disappointment.

    You're probably right I was basing my theory on the people who virtually never post when something positive happens ( admittedly few and far between these days ) but are as prolific as Enid Blyton when something negative occurs, and do seem to wallow in it. Perhaps I'm just over optimistic ( or naive ) but it's an attitude that suits me more than some of the doom mongers who post on here, who probably are right most of the time but are bloody depressing.

    I take it that's a rhetorical question.

    I'm not so sure I agree with you on this one, but I suppose it's how you define a "fan". Some on here only post when bad things happen, and revel in them. Then again I suppose I'm a "happy clapper" not a "fold the club" brigade.

    Was thinking the same myself. Was probably just a desperate attempt at humour, which failed !

    Can only echo what others have said. An introverted shy character who came alive on the pitch. A showman and crowd pleaser of the highest order with immense talent, that no doubt would have been coached out of him nowadays. Sad to think that many of our supporters have not experienced the anticipation and excitement he generated when the ball was at his feet !
  24. Bobledgersheart
    It'll never take off from that quagmire.

    This is an example of when the spoken words are more revealing than written ones "You can be 100% sure that our budget is bigger" is what may have been meant.
