jdckelly Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Cannot blame Shola , but he should never still be at this club. Should have be given a free transfer years ago, he's basically the summary of the lack of any investment. He's clearly not up to premier league standard on any kind of consistent basis as a striker with only flashes of competence but the unwillingness to actively replace him means he stays around as we need something up front. Now I don't blame him in the slightest for staying I would do the exact same thing in his boots nor will I ever hate him as he seems a nice guy never caused any bother or bad headlines or generally dragged the name of the club down and hating someone because they're bad at football is not a good reason in the slightest.

Guest bimpy474 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Did not realise how bad some of his misses were until I seen them on match of the day. Free header six yards out and cant hit the target, even the one on one was probably going wide! Did we really have 28 shots today???! Mostly from Santon that went for home runs.

Apart from that time he said he'd been robbed and it turned out he'd left the flat messy. Sums him up really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Nothing but love for Shola. He's shot as a footballer and should never be anywhere near our first team but that's not his fault. He's always given his best when asked and played through injury for us. He doesn't pick the team, he doesn't sign the players, he plays to the best of his limited ability. The abuse he gets is OTT in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I'm sick of him now, this has gone on way too long. Wish he'd pushed for a move years ago and done us all a big favour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Did not realise how bad some of his misses were until I seen them on match of the day. Free header six yards out and cant hit the target, even the one on one was probably going wide! Did we really have 28 shots today???! Incredibly misleading stat if we did. Happy Face will be buzzing off his tits. All either pitifully tame or into the stand. As you say though, Happy Face will have convinced himself that it means we were brilliant. Jesus wept. Just because I'm not a rabid Pardew hater that will spin owt to make him out to be a cunt? I give him credit where I think it's due and find it more interesting to make the case against received wisdom where I disagree. There's more than enough evidence for him being shite without making stuff up. We managed 6 shots from inside the box that weren't blocked. 2 of those on target. And we were shit.

loki679 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 It's the rubbish Guangzhou, not the real Guangzhou. R&F are a new club that used to be in Shenzhen and a couple other places. Evergrande is the proper GZ, R&F are like MK Dons, franchise FC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
