Lay off Skalak

[Super Steve Earle]

Utterly, utterly fed up with his critics on NSC. Shut up the lot of you and support the whole squad including Jiri, Tomer, Gaetan. I'll do my bit and lay off Murphy. We need a siege mentality to stand a chance this season and I have a feeling this transfer window may just work in our favour rather than having some overpaid foreigner at the pointy end who may or may not deliver. Ok, shut up the lot of you may be a bit strong, but he's one of our own and somehow we have to find a coherent team from the 25. Any one of them could be an unexpected star turn. At least four or five will have to be.

Are you ill

To be fair though, he's a bit poor.

For some reason, it really bugs me when people refer to footballers that they've never met in first name terms...

Total hypocrisy. You tell us to stop critising then openly admit you do the same with Murphy. All in the first two sentences.. [emoji106]

 

[TottonSeagull]

I'll lay off him as I am hoping not to see too much of him because is generally shite .......... damn!

Not really. I said stop criticising Skalak and agreed to do the same with Murphy. Believe me it will be a struggle!

Good post.

Not sure he'll be getting much game time, though, as things currently stand.

He said he'd stop doing the same with Murphy.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Painfull watching him in the Barnet cup game.

I've met several of them at various times, so you can relax

I won't critise Skalak for not being good enough but I will critise the board etc if CH has to play him because we don't have anyone better when we all know he shouldn't be here and isn't up to the prem.

Exactly. You're admitting to doing it with Murphy then asking/telling others not to do it to skalak?

Ye gods, I'm saying I'll stop criticising Murphy and suggesting others do likewise with Skalak.

 

[portlock seagull]

But that goal....THAT GOAL! He's already written himself into Albion folklore. One of the great great goals in the history of our club.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I still wonder why he's never been used in the Baldock role, where he definitely played at times in the Czech Republic. He can certainly shoot ....

You serious ?

Baldock has pace. Skalak rarely beats his man for pace. He can shoot ? He has had hundreds of shots and only scored one Albion goal i believe. Have you seen some of the skill Baldock and the goals he score last year ? No chance Skalak could do that

 

[amexer]

Dont think we will see him again. Tilley is far better

At the start of the season i would have said no but now i'm all for it. Certainly wouldn't do him any harm being on the bench for WBA. I expect Hughton would rather play Murphy up top though.

Not really a fair deal though, because Murphy has skill, pace and is a decent finisher where as Skalak, as much as I hate to say it, is shite.
