surely that's why we have Grimes?
Click to expand...


i thought Bannon would be coming on from the bench for someone like Grimes in the latter stages if we were chasing or if Grimes already on a yellow.... however i didn't realise Bannon is 35 already!!

i also thought he was more attacking than the stats suggest....

Clearly you never saw Kevin McDonald play.

Edit: beaten to it. Definitely the slowest player I’ve seen for us.

His slowness kinda offset any skills he had. He must’ve had some at some stage cos he played for a very good Liverpool side.
The old man was convinced McDonald was arthritic.

Why the clamour for Barry Bannan? Don't think he'd sign for us or we would particularly want him. He started out at villa didn't he too?

He ran like he had a pole rammed up his arse.

I also remember one game at Plough Lane, when there were just over 4k people there and nothing in the way of atmosphere, where he spent what sounded like the whole game shouting 'FUCKING HELL!' very loudly.

Woman behind me asked her friend who the Scottish man who kept swearing was.

Quite a few top players have smoked over the years, Johan Cruyff and Ossie Ardiles. Probably less now, but that applies to the general population as well.

Radja Nainggolan, who played for Inter, Roma and was a Belgium international smoked and he was playing champions league football for Inter, still playing at 37
