xLiaaamx Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Didn't really rate him. Used to think he was a bit weak for a big cb. Thought Dabizas was better, then Woodgate obviously. Agree with rating Hughes, thought we were stupid to let him go. My family absolutely hated Titus though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Stand out memories include him putting one in the mackems net, getting smacked in the face with the ball at Man Utd and generally just always running round with one arm in the air.

Stifler Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 That’s not our Andy O’Brien is it? She’s punching if so... How did people rate him btw? I always wanted Hughes in ahead of him who I loved and obviously Bramble had insane ability for a CB but was thick as shit. O’Brien was a steady eddy and I’m sure he would rock up at training in some shitty banger and lived in a normal semi while the likes of Shola’s crib was being robbed by party people. Ah, fucking good days to be following our mad club back then like. Felt like we were on the verge of something special and then along come Abramovic... I was only young at the time, so my recollection of events may not be that good. However I feel that our defence was the weakest aspect of the squad, the likes of O-Brien, Hughes, Griffin et el were not as good as the rest of the squad. Bernard was great, but everyone else in defence was rubbish, well not rubbish but standard Premier League players back then when the rest of the squad was one of the better teams. Had we have a defence to match the rest of the squad then we might have taken that final step and won something, even if it was just through a cup run. I agree. Put our defence now in that team and we would probably have won something. We should have brought Woodgate in from Leeds years earlier, Southgate at Aston Villa would also have been good acquisition, both of them highly rated at the time. Even a young-ish John Terry would have been a signing that wouldn’t have been beyond us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we would have struggled to tempt Woodgate any earlier, Leeds looked likely to bring on serious silverware for a couple of seasons pre turning rubbish and bankrupt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chicken little Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 for some reason there is a twitter bot that spews out 4-4-2 lineups of random nufc players from across time (occasionally with a link to a german bank attached, for reasons i do not understand). for example: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
