Nobody Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Perch is no better than Williamson. You must be joking. They are about the same level, neither is good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a CH I agree Perch's versatliliy makes him a more useful squad addition I think he is a better RB/DM than he is CH Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Perch is no better than Williamson. You must be joking. They are about the same level, neither is good enough. As a CH I agree Perch's versatliliy makes him a more useful squad addition I think he is a better RB/DM than he is CH I'd go along with this. Desperately need another first choice centre back as Saylor has once again proven to not be reliable over the course of a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Perch is a much better footballer, but at CB I would say Williamson is just about better. I don't think we would notice a massive improvement if Perch came in for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 You know you're a scapegoat when Bramble gets held up as a shining example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 At least Bramble's long balls went out for a goal kick. He managed to give the opposition possession a good 40 yards further back than Williamson does every single fucking time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
henke Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I thought Brambles passing was alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 At times Bramble's long balls were pinpoint accurate, especially for Shearer's goal against Citeh down there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Bramble was strong in the tackle and in the air, but incredibly clumsy with the ball at his feet. He didn't pass the ball, he just banged it and hoped it would hit a team-mate at some point in its flight path. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 We could do with someone like Bramble as he was back then alongside Colo. Certainly a better option than Williamson or Perch as third choice centre back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Bramble always had one fuck up and one mint pass per game like almost like he had a quota to fill. He used to batter a fair few clearances out for a goal kick from his own half too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Bramble was physically and technically very good, and he was an exceptional passer for a CB. Mentally he was the worst of the worst and unfortunately that never got better. Shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 The fact that Bramble was prone to giving the opposition a goal in almost every second game meant that he was a totally shite defender. If Baresi had done that he would be a totally shite defender too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 There were few players i was more relieved to get shot of than Bramble. Obviously, that was soon eclipsed by many of the relegation pack, but at the time... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither, Bramble was made to look bad by a young chest thumping professional geordie Saylor making ricks next to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bramble could get some distance on the ball, but that did not make him a good passer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Used to like Titus, a truly two footed player, it was just when the ball was near our box both his feet became left ones.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
