f*** me, I just saw tommy Fraser score an overhead kick

[ali jenkins]

Fraser had a BRILLIANT game today!

Very much in contention for MoM (I dont acctually know who got the Brighton MoM)

 

[Gwylan]

Was it as good as Stuart Mundays overhead kick at Birmingham?

I remember that - it was a gob-smacking effort from a player not exactly renowned for his skillful touches.

 

[SNOOBS]

Fair play for going, but why the f*** is he posting on here during the game

Each to their own I suppose.

Its just like texting Darren

That's just embarrassing. Richards scored at CARLISLE this season. Using your 'logic' he must have been a HERO that day.

No, it is not embarrassing - what IS embarrassing is your constant berating and deriding of players who do more than "show up because it's their job".

You will herald someone who shows up to support Brighton, alright, but your constant criticism of individual players is not support. In this case, a player who does give a shit and wants to wear the stripes is someone about who you say;

"What is he going to be good at?

Nothing.

Get ridl"

You are embarrassing, and you come out with the shocking arguments, with practically every post.

He hasn't been shit for three seasons. He has had a few good games, plenty of average games and some poor ones. He is not always used in his preferred position and he does not always get a run in the side. Why? He is young and way off his peak. If he played to his very best all the time, then he wouldn't be turning out for us. I still don't see why his lack of natural talent should be used as a stick to beat him. There are plenty of players that forge a career without being a flairtastic genius.

And no....before I get called a retard by Mr Badger for my lack of willingness to rip the guy to shreads, it is not because he is a homegrown player at all - I am just being patient.

Homegrown players nurtured by none other than Dean Wilkins.
Those players revived a going-nowhere-fast team that was left by McGhee (whether you think he was under awful constraints or not) and turned things around relatively well coming into the first team.

Since relying on a new manager to keep those fires burning, we have seen the effects as we sank to the depths. How appropriate that it was this player in particular, who gave us some hope in last night's game from out of nothing, and sets The Albion up to at least look at some possibilities going onward to the end of the fight.

I only hope is that Tommy Fraser's goal resounds throughout the players as something they can credit with their own industry - beyond the final whistle of last night. Fraser didn't get that goal on his own, that's true - but it's a fine example from a regular sleeves-rolled young tryer, of what can be done for the cause without the fussy brand of 'star striker' on his head.
Another analogy, is that an arrow from a footsoldier was at least as important to winning the battle, as a dead-eye shot from the renowned marksman.

You're implying that we should be grateful a player has "bothered" to actually turn up for the game. That's ludicrous and most definitely embarrassing. Maybe I'm on my own here, but I'd suggest that simply turning up for work is the least I'd expect, and I'm not going to congratulate anyone for doing it. Nor has the distance travelled got anything to do with it. Players who score for us at Carlisle and Hartlepool or Hereford on a Tuesday night are doing no more or less than those who score at home.

"Constant deriding" blah blah blah. Absolute bollocks. You'd struggle to find more than 2 or 3 players I've criticised in the last few weeks which, bearing in mind where we are in the league, makes me a bloody saint. So do one and stop spouting bollocks until you actually watch a game like the rest of us.

f*** off, you narrow-minded tosser. Spouting bollocks is your renowned speciality.

Fuckin knob.

 

[NMH]

You've raised so many intellectual and insightful points there I don't even know where to start with my response

How about you shut the f*** up then, you fail in every other attempt to say anything meaningful.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I thought I was dreaming last night, did I actually witness Tommy Fraser do a overhead kick. Nurse.......

Firstly, no I am not suggesting we be grateful a player has turned up.
I am saying it's pathetic to keep banging on in criticism of one who has, and that's why you are so boring and repetitive. I could give a monkeys about distance, or on a Tuesday night, or that the player was doing no more or less in Hereford or Carlisle than at home?? - what has that to do with anything? Do you make this up, or are you born with a narrowed mind?
A player scores a decent goal, the team win, and you come out with that drivel.
It really is boring boring drivel, and then you ask if you are alone in this??
No, everyone hangs on your every word

You know what, you're right. Absolutely spot on. If only I could offer the pearls of wisdom that seem to roll off your keyboard.

Right, in an attempt to live up to the example you have set, I'm off to start a thread entitled "Many thanks to the albion players for turning up to EVERY game this season." Because as convincing as some of them have been at going missing, I'm almost certain at least 16 have been present each week. Forget the football, forget the results, that's for other clubs. Because WE have players who bother to turn up so let's go f***ing mental



:mexican:

Don't you need to get some sanitary towels?
Menstruating isn't pretty, but try to stay away from the computer until you are over it, eh?

 

[Mendoza]

That is probably the best overhead kick ever seen since the days of Chris McPhee away at Bristol Rovers

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

What a load of shit.

 

[SeagullRic]

You brought distance into it. And you did imply we should be grateful/support players just for turning up. You said, and I quote: "someone off who actually bothered to go all that way and score for us on a Tuesday night." Now if we're talking about Fraser, I don't think whether he scored at Hereford, Hull or Harlow really matters. Also, in my opinion, it's the FANS who should be appreciated for turning up in horrible places like Hereford on Tuesday nights. After the absolute holocaust that has been this season I'm in no mood to be wildly cheering anyone in our squad after spending 4 hours in the car to get there. It's got to the stage now where they have to give us something first - FACT.

And as for "coming out with that drivel," well I've barely said a word about Fraser's performance last night so I'm not sure why you're making an argument out of that. I'll give you my views on it if you wish, and you may even like it as he wasn't as bad as usual, but I won't hold my breath.

Nice use of alliteration in there.

You're argument would be so much more convincing if you didn't wet yourself everytime Kuipers gets in the team.
