March v Towner

[mona]

For those old enough to remember both players at a young age, who was the better?

 

[BensGrandad]

For me Towner as he had more strength and was more direct.

 

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

Towner was more consistent, you knew what you were getting.
You don't really know what you are getting week in week out with Solly.

 

[Stat Brother]

It's occurred to me this Saturday we could be watching the original Craig Noone, and Craig Noone II.

It's interesting how highly he is rated at his three other clubs: Wolves, Millwall and Rotherham. Remember him taking the ball from his own half, beating three defenders and scoring at Northampton. Only Garry Nelson's at Brentford was better.

 

[fat old seagull]

At the moment it has to be Towner, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Dunno, but I reckon March will be pretty mean at shifting sofas down dodgy staircases and humping sturdy armoires safely.

 

[wallyback]

Towner easily!

But March is still so young.

 

[Vegas Seagull]

Tiger

Tiger . Very exciting and direct, way ahead of Solly at the sam age. Solly has potential but so needs some composure.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Towner. Fast, direct and durable. He was mostly playing in the third tier, but it was at a time when attackers had far less protection from referees. And although he was nominally right-footed and we hear plenty about March being able to come inside on his left foot, I seem to remember Tiger cutting inside on the first day of the season against Rotherham in 1975 and cracking a left-foot rocket in off the bar at the North Stand end.

 

[Screaming J]

Towner, no question. And that would have been my answer even before last Saturday at Bolton!

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

Towner. My first hero! Not even close.

 

[El Sid]

Dave 'Speedy Gonzales' Armstrong - Brighton's all time legend winger.

On his day he was faster than a toupee in a hurricane.
He used to fly up the wing so fast he had to deploy a parachute to stop himself flying into the south stand.
Magic moments.

 

[Icy Gull]

Towner looked and played like he belonged in the first team, March is a lightweight sub at the moment, a frustrating one to watch most of the time. He may come good but I doubt it, needs to toughen up first though. The modern day equivalent of Jake Robinson, although the position varies.

Would genuinely like to be wrong

 

[Rogero]

Roast em Tiger, was the cry.He was exciting.

Very fast but was there any end product?

None.

 

[The Birdman]

Towner/ Cox/ March hope this changes

 

[tigertim68]

Tower easily , March needs to start working harder , and find some confidence, then his game might improve
