Hahaha. He stood by us?

He had no other choice. No one has ever tried to sign him because he's crap.

Two very good premiership managers would strongly disagree with you, as do his contemporaries.

How anyone can say Ossie is "crap" is beyond me,if you've played the game to even a limited level you will appreciate technically what a very good footballer he is,yes you can highlight his "faults" which are largely down to his physical makeup/dynamic which he can't really do an awful lot about,but you can appreciate how he has honed his skills and worked on his weakness's from when he was a kid.

I disagree with them.

And it's not exactly a big endorsement that his mates think he's decent.

I didn't say his mates I said his contemporaries, other footballers who've played against him and have no affiliation or bias towards him.

Interesting view on the 2 players 1 is crap the other sublime. I prefer to class them as 1 is a very intelligent footballer and the other is a footballing retard who plays by instinct.

There is a word in your posting which you should not use in any circumstances, or very few. I hope you have realised what the word is ,and if you haven't, the mods will explain to you.

I've done a google search. 5 pages in I can only find praise from Moyes, Martinez and a few of our players. No other professionals.

Just reading Ossies autobiography{Xmas Present} and in the season we came 4th he was on 3k per week + bonuses up to 6k a week if we won at the end of the season as his contract was windind down DM offered him 6 k per week with out any bonus - the top players at that time were on 45k - hne remarks how home grown player under DM pay was poor comparing to outside players!
So he has been a loyal player for us like him or not!

Only 3k a week? Poor him. I'm disgusted at what we've put him through.

I like Ossie, and I think he's been a very technically gifted servant for us. But I don't feel sorry for any football player who 'only' earns £3k a week.

God help you if you know what some of the other players were on then at that time 45k per week!
