Zorrro Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Skiverton's a tosser. Stam's injury record is woeful, which is a shame because he's a classy player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slurms mckenzie Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Great player, lousy injury record. I hope he gets fit, finds a club and scores V Yeovil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Must do wonders for a team's morale when a manager publicly makes statements like that! It's a real shame about Stam's injury record as he was twice the CB that Skiverton ever hoped to be. Stay injury free, Stefan, and find a club that appreciates how good you are. Good luck.

Hometownclub Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Great player, lousy injury record. I hope he gets fit, finds a club and scores V Yeovil. I wouldn't describe him as a great player, an average lower league defender maybe. As for him getting fit and finding another club, don't hold yer breath.

beag_teeets Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 id rather have a fit stefan stam in my defence than a ruben hazell any day But there's the issue, we've had 3, maybe 4 seasons out of Rubes and I bet he has missed 10 games. In that time he has been one of only two experienced centre backs that the manager could call on. Stam on the other hand, at times was a delight to watch however he was always a gust of wind away from being missing for two to three months and meaning we had to bring in kids on loan who would get sent off or play like bambi on ice. At this level we are never going to get a pairing of Baresi and Moore, we are going to get flawed players and have get the best out of them, we don't get anything from a player in the treatment room.

Lookers_Carl Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Stam only had to fart and he was out with a groin injury for 6 weeks. classy player when fit but thats the problem. We would get 20 games a season out of him if we were lucky. clubs our size and yeovil's size with a budget tighter than a camels arse in a sandstorm, cannot afford to carry passengers such as your stams/purdies etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massively over rated IMO. Harsh fella - I think this is more to the point: Stam only had to fart and he was out with a groin injury for 6 weeks. classy player when fit but thats the problem. We would get 20 games a season out of him if we were lucky. clubs our size and yeovil's size with a budget tighter than a camels arse in a sandstorm, cannot afford to carry passengers such as your stams/purdies etc. I thought, when fit, Stam was cut above L1; and could have played higher. Classy player and a good defender. What made him L1 defender was his terrible injury record & the fact that 1 game in say 5 or 6; he’d drop a clanger that may or may not punished. If he could get fit & stay fit; I’d say he could reasonably make a claim to get into any side in the division. Something more has to have gone there......though Carl makes a good point above, that a club of Yeovils ilk can’t afford to carry almost permanently injured players. Skivvers hasn’t covered himself in any glory there though has he? Strange way to keep moral up, by publically slagging & slating a player who is still with the club.Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm Edited January 5, 2011 by slystallone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laticsmad Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Sadly, yet another player whose off the field habits are affecting his career. I don't know about Stams off the field antics but I think he's a quality bloke. Shortly after he left latics for Yeovil I sent him a facebook message, me a complete stranger, and he replied with a thank you and all the best for my future. A nice touch I thought!

He could pass well enough, but he played more than enough classy cross-field balls that totally failed to find the target. And didn't have the physique I'd really like in a CB at our level, could be overpowered without having pace to compensate (certainly post injury). But a decent player at our level and I do believe a nice bloke, went out of his way to show his face (in the stands at Blackpool in the play-off, at Ernie's funeral although I don't think they played together etc) and never heard anyone with a bad word to say about him. And his bird is fit as :censored:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And his bird is fit as :censored:. Maybe but he hit probably the crossfield ball of the decade right to the onrushing Paul Warne who played a good ball inside for Lidds to ram home (at the second attempt) our second goal v Hartlepool on NYE 2005 - superb ball fully 60-70 yards and that goal turned out to be the winner. As many have said, he dropped the odd bollock but his biggest problem was getting out on the meadow every week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
