No HTT used to have a forum called HTT before N-O existed. N-O is a merger of HTT and the (old) Toontastic forum. I can't remember the name of the poster who cuck'd for Bramble. Probably for the best. It was 18-19 years ago. Think we baited him out with "POIDH" thinking there was no way it happened, then being in shock when he actually posted the evidence of Bramble in bed with his missus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titus dominated him and he was subbed at HT or soon after. No no no. Bramble doesn’t get a redemption He was positionally awful, reckless and had no concentration. His occasional decent long balls masked he was shite in possession as well. He also had a stinking attitude and along with Dyer was one of the main reasons that team fell to bits. One of the worst players of that era Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 In my opinion there was a lot of casual racism / unconscious bias when it came to both Dyer and Bramble which meant that people saw some issues that weren’t really there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyer was really hated on the forums back then. I mean I get he wasn't the nicest fella, had a touch of arrogance, but you would have thought his sheer ability and excitement factor would get him some grace. But not really, there was some nasty posts around him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Dyer was a self-entitled prick. Remember photos of his Bentley in disabled parking bays at cinemas etc. Brambles greatest game at stJames’ was without doubt the 5under1and game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racism isn’t just about abuse, it’s about how we treat players. Still happens today as players like Sterling will attest to. The most common racism today is that many of us are guilty of holding certain players to a higher standard before we accept them and like them. I think some attitudes towards Murphy in particular have been inwardly racist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But despite being at a similar level, he needed to perform better than particular peers (e.g Longstaff and Mitrovic) to be liked the same as them.

I'd say local players thesedays are on a hiding to nothing yes he does get criticised as he is probably just outside of our 11 best players. fans have however played the ‘loves the club’ card as a reason to support Longstaff and Mitrovic. I’ve rarely seen that card played for Murphy despite the fact that I’ve seen more photos of child Murphy in an NUFC strip than the Longstaffs, Dummett and Mitrovic combined.
