Soo is Kieffer Moore. Collins cab also hold the ball up if lumped to him.Quote:

One of my favourite players of recent times. Have a look at his “skill set” in the goals scored on YouTube including a sublime volley at Derby. He scored 19 goals in 95 appearances including 4 in the Premier League while being effed about with position wise. He had a great knack of getting the ball on target by any means and I remember several “scuffs” going into the bottom corner. I’d love to see some of our current team scuffing with such great effect.
Have itQuote:

Along with Bamba and Morrison my daughters favourite players. Cant knock that, but ironic how she despised hoofball...Quote:

Wish him all the best did nothing but try for us, all I had against him was I thought we had better to play where he was being played, not his fault and as a pro he's just going to get on with it and do as his gaffer says.Quote:

I'm not arguing for any one to be brought back. I'm really looking forward to seeing these young lads develop. I just don't like history being airbrushed. 19 in 95 or 1 goal in 5 games is almost as good as my all time favourite player, Peter Whittingham. By the way that's maths not emotion.
We need to get points on the board or we are going to airbrushed into league 1Quote:

Possibly, but I think it was more down to what he offered in running around trying hard and was good in the air. I think better players were selected behind him personally.Quote:

I don't understand. We changed our style of play and got 10 points from 7 games. Which is comfortably a top 10 finish PPG rate. The previous 9 games we got zero points. And people agree we have to sign Callum Paterson to avoid getting relegated? Sludge is on a wind up. He must be bored.
Gavin Rae is still doing a job hoovering his living room . Wouldn’t he be better than Morrison etc ?
The word you were looking for was stupid . Surely ?Quote:

Well that's a statement you can make if you like but until we have a ten point buffer it's going to be a very nervous remainder of the season !Quote:

You often see converted strong full-backs doing well on the left or right of a back 3, the likes of Peltier, McNaughton or certainly Connolly could have played that role I think.
Patterson has played as a full back, and is committed, strong and dominant in the air.
He's quick enough and better with the ball at his feet than a lot of centre backs.
Having a look at a Sheff Weds forum, it seems he's not held in as high esteem there as he is here "not a footballer" was mentioned more than once, as was "binman".
He does seem to have won a lot of them over playing at centre back though, he's done well in both games, one of which they were down to ten men and he had a yellow card from the 3rd minute but defended resolutely and looked good bringing the ball out into midfield. Who knows, if he does make that position his own then maybe he could play there at a higher level.
I’d be interested to see him in our back 3. I honestly don’t think he could do much worse than Morrison has this season.
Probably has all the attributes for it but not sure whether he has the sense for it.
You're about 10 years older than me 15 at a push :hehe:Quote:

Are you stuck in a time warp? Do you actually watch Cardiff ? We almost disappeared out of sight playing hoofball , if we don't modernise we are going where you will love some of the football . League one then more than probably league two .Quote:

Wouldn’t want him back but still interesting to see how he does.
