Thanks for that. It was a long time ago! Never thought of looking on YT and always remembered my, obviously incorrect, version of events! Wasn't really Blyth's fault at all. Well, I never.

Why? He's shit/old/injury prone/has a bad attitude/not played for ages/not what we need at the moment (delete as appropriate)

Me and my stepdad went up to Hampden to see Jim Blyth make his Scottish debut. Not great, ball went through his legs for their goal - can't remember who it was even against now. I was 12 and it was very exciting. Around the time of the Argentina World Cup.

Have to laugh at people on here, Twitter and Facebook. No matter which name is mentioned, someone will come out and say they're shit, or not good enough, too old, too young or - my personal favourite - "not what we need at the moment". They're suddenly experts on this particular players'...

Yeah, I reckon i could think of at least 50 players i reckon are better.

Rob Holding back the years.

Jimmy Dunne for QPR misses an open goal. If he was playing for us there would be multiple threads stating how shit he was.

As I'm of that certain age, then yes. I was around 12/13 when he was at his zenith. Wally and Fergie too.

Not for me.

Shame I didn't realise this 50 years ago. In all seriousness, people won't pay to watch a dull film or play but they WILL to watch their team play, regardless.

Well, not according to those who wanted Robins out. They said they were more than happy to be worse under the new guy.

Yep. I've been going regularly since the 77/78 and then all home and most away since 82/83. Some seasons I've gone to 90% of matches, some just ten or so, but been a STH since the late 80s. No, people can't help when they were born, I get that, but what we're "going through" at the moment is...

This. Absolutely this.

Yeah, all a bit weird. This thread and a few others are the equivalent of those Facebook threads where someone says they're "struggling" and all their Facebook 'friends' post, "Are you OK, Babe?" in reply. Bet if there was a Wembley trip this coming weekend you'd be "arsed". Cannot understand...

Nope. Might get pissed off, angry. Lose interest? Never.

Twat.

Great goal from van eweejikk

I mean not having to work his way up the leagues. Debut at 16. Transfer to Utd at 18 for a massive fee. More medals than a war hero. All he knew was success and adulation. I'm not saying he didn't earn all that. I'm saying he hasn't known adversity or lack of success. Until now. He may become...

Used to go with my lad. They were always good fun. Remember one they had at some random health club during the Sixfields season. Callum Wilson and Leon Clarke asked him to play FIFA with them but he refused. I still mention that now.

Which is a hangover from his playing career and my whole point at the beginning of the thread. Everything in his playing career fell into his lap. He obviously expects the same in his managerial career.
