Did Bruno mean it?

[Bozza]

Well, did he mean to shoot/score?

[Hillian1]

No.

 

[Rogero]

Will we ever know.

 

[portslade seagull]

It was a cross, but who cares ... its the one up the other end that worries me

 

[LamieRobertson]

No...but he did very well to even lay a foot on it

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

No going by all his other crosses and shots every time he's played for us there's not a cat in hells chance he meant it.

 

[Prettyboyshaw]

Cross or shot cMs would have ****ed it up

 

[Rugrat]

No ... any other day that would have cleared the South stand

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Pretty sure he meant it. He's a fancy dan player who tries stuff like that knowing once in a while it comes off.

 

[fat old seagull]

Definitely not, but it makes up for the times he tried to... and didn't

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Pretty sure it came off his shin, which makes it not much of either a cross or a shot. So... NO. He got lucky.

This is surely a joke thread! Bruno failed to do anything successfully all night. The accidental plus side on one occasion was that an attempt to cross the ball the ended up in the back of the net. He was pants for the whole match.

 

[stss30]

Going by Bruno's past efforts, no, he didn't mean it.

 

[jatw]

I say yes - looked like a lob, a cross would have been flatter.

 

[trueblue]

Of course he meant it. If not, what else was he trying to do? There was no-one to cross to anyway. Cushioned it superbly.

 

[Silk]

I thought yes

Clip clearly shows CMS at the far post. May have been aiming to put in a cross to him. Or far more likely was just trying to lob something in the general vicinity of the goal and hoping for the best - as I'm sure he'll confirm as soon as anybody asks him.

But.......

If he saw him - and he may not have - he wouldn't have known if he was onside. Crossing it accurately would have been harder and he'd not have got any credit. And it was the one time all game Marshall was out of position. Where CMS is is entirely irrelevant in the debate around what he meant to do.

 

[GT49er]

Has he said he meant it? 'Cos if he has, we must believe him - he's an Albion player after all.

Nice one Bruno!
