Freddie sears at Colchester was miles better than Biamou. He had decent championship seasons at Ipswich too.

O’donovan has done well in league one.

Kevin Kyle is a tough one. He even had good goal scoring spells in Scotland and Sunderland

Freddie Sears did well after leaving us, at the time he played for us he was young, lightweight and ineffective.

O'Donovan had 1 good loan spell in league one

Kyle cost us £1m and scored 5 league goals.

So sears definitely a better player. O’donovan I’m fishing with a bit but I was so shocked when I saw his record at Hartlepool!

Kyle probably on Max’s level. Says it all really

He became a better player. At the point of signing he wasn't, therefore Biamou was a better player for us in the championship.

Which goes to show you have to judge solely on what they did with us.

Kyle is pretty much rated as our worst signing ever.

Anyway I'm bored now. He's third choice for a reason.

I’ve already explained what I’m asking. Players to have had worse careers than Max. Nimely and Hines are the only clear 2 that I’ve seen

IIRC, we haven't won 2 in a row all season.

I think 7 points from next 3 games will see us safe.

Hines scored in the prem surely that makes him better than Max too?

As a whole career, I don’t think so. But if that’s what you think fair enough.

Not another Max thread.

It clearly rocks a lot of people's boats, but is now a big yawn. It is really just trench warfare between two sides who know their own minds. Anyway, I know I'm right. He is at best 2nd reserve striker, and if anybody offered us something for him, we should bite their hand off. But other opinions are available...

The story and thread wasn’t about Max it was about him saying we will stay up

Grendel, did not think it were possible but either Peter Duckett is on the wind up or you have found someone with an even more disproportionate view of Max's abilities than yourself.

Just read the thread. If you think Roy O’Donovan was a better player than Biamou then football clearly isn’t your sport. I don’t think Max is particularly good either but fuck me some of the views on here are completely dumb

true


The point being for younger members Mick Ferguson scored more headed goals than virtually anyone for the club and in the top flight once scored three hat tricks in a season

Christ, that's ridiculous. Has to be some sort of satire, surely.

I know one thing. If Max suddenly starts wearing shades and dons a white suit and is sponsored by Kool Aid prepare for a 10,000 reduction in attendances

The worst thing is it causes overreactions the other way from the likes of yourself and others. He's clearly a very limited player, he'd be nowhere near starting at this level if it weren't for the injuries we've had this year, but given his limitations he's done an ok job. Not great, not awful. If we want to progress we need someone of a similar ilk who is better and just generally more consistent.

Okay I over reacted. He’s the 4th worst striker we’ve had at this level not the 3rd

We've had many worse at this level (in terms of performance for us - I don't give a shit what they did for other clubs). Particularly when you consider most of those were signed as starters at this level, whereas Max was surplus to requirements at the start of the season. Probably fairer to look back and compare him to 3rd/4th choice strikers rather than starters anyway. All this doesn't mean I think he's the Messiah.

Believe it or not I don’t actually post as much personal abuse against him as others do and certainly others do against other players

Biamou is a cult figure - others I could possibly compare him to are Houchen (definitely and if he was in the social media age he’d be worshipped on Twitter) and potentially Sean Flynn

It’s a pointless exercise talking to this idiot. He think O’Donovan is better. I’ve had pub players better than O’Donovan

There's much better reason to worship Houchen to be fair.

Sean Flynn was pretty much shite. I thought Telfer was shite too but was quite popular because he ran a lot

Simpson 'can be a City star'

ROBBIE SIMPSON could be the dark horse of the Championship, claims Coventry City boss Iain Dowie.
