Cajun Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 He's played through injuries for the benefit of the team, he's nothing like Owen. Can you imagine Owen playing with a fractured cheekbone and then taking off his mask against doctor's advice? Agreed, they are nothing alike. If Owen had suffered the same problems as Shola over the years we would literally have never seen the gutless wanker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hobshobs Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 You don't think he has a fractured cheek? Shooting to the Leazes and last week against Manchester United - a ball is dropping to the back post for Williamson with no opposition player near him - great chance to get a header on goal or head back across the face. As he's about to meet the ball Shola comes flying through the air and clatters into the back of him - ball goes out for a bye kick - Williamson is flattened and Shola is lying on top of him. Everyone around me asks what is Shola doing? Commitment some might say, others another example of how useless and brainless he can be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hobshobs Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Shola is absolutely f*** all like Owen, probably the worst comparison you could have made tbh Owen couldn't f*** off quick enough, Shola just won't f*** off. Shola to Manchester United - don't think so. That is why I said Owen was a better player. By the way I hate them both before anybody thinks I'm sticking up for Owen.

You're saying Owen went and Shola stays. Owen was wanted by Manchester United because he had a degree of talent. Ferguson wouldn't touch Shola, even on a free with us picking up his wages.

Guest hobshobs Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Anything is possible with Shola mate. Usually the impossible. Look forward to next season, Shola staying fit for the campaign and scoring a barrowload. Anybody hear the online commentary on Saturday. Commentator was stunned that Shola spent over 20 minutes warming up in his match boots. Game underway for ten minutes and he had lost his footing three times ending up on his arse. Then on the touchline for over three minutes changing his footwear. Joke footballer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 He's got some absolute brilliance deep in him somewhere. Will forever be a mystery as to why it's only popped up for around 10% of his footballing career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone around me asks what is Shola doing? Commitment some might say, others another example of how useless and brainless he can be. I remember the incident. Shola was moving forward to the ball and Williamson was moving backward - Shola was definitely in the better position to head it. Shola shouted for it so loud that you could hear it on camera, but Williamson either ignored him or was too committed to adjust. The two of them had a bit of an argument afterwards. Whoever's fault it was, it wasn't clear cut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another difference is that when Owen played badly, loads of people blamed it on 'the service'. Shola is expected to be self-sufficient. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 he's never going to be better than a lower PL player Useful in a pinch but if we got a decent offer I'd get rid of him- he could be a hero at a Div 2 - sorry Championship - club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
