If you read it you will notice that I said he was the opposite of DCL. His finishing was good but his all round game wasn’t. This means I actually think DCL all round game is good. So how is that having a pop?

I did read it Tel. Based on every single other post of yours I've seen regarding DCL, the point you were actually making is that his finishing is poor, not that his all round play is good.

It's good to see that you think his all round game is good though. That's without doubt the nicest thing you've ever said about the lad. Nice that you can have a more balanced view on him.

You know I was just saying I thought his all round game was good to try win an argument I think he’s badly gash and I can’t really hide it

....terrific result, one of Lavery’s goals sounds very good. Hoping somebody can post the goals on here.

He got another one last night in the return game, it wasn’t enough to keep his team in the competition.

Gueye with hair like Wilfred Zaha scored a paneka penalty, magic in his boots that feller.

‘ magic in his boots that feller’ A bit like Tommy Cooper the way it came out, only he wasn’t as funny, unless you supported the opposition !!!

The thought had crossed my mind yes.

Ryan Ledson scored a penalty in Preston's win.

Talented lad, I enjoyed watching him play for us at various levels and hope to see him playing in the Premier League at some time in the future. I have a lot of time for the likes of Ledson who recognise they're not going to walk into our team and decide to leave to build a career for themselves.

This probably doesn't really fit in with this thread, but I wasn't sure where else to put it, and I couldn't see it posted elsewhere

It's a piece about Andy Rankin, who's had a plaque unveiled in the Top Balcony. What I'd forgotten was the depth of his family's links to our club. Sadly Andy was in hospital when the plaque was unveiled so couldn't be there

Velios.

Not bad with his bicycle kicks is Vellios.

If memory serves, it was Vellios' attempted bicycle kick that deflected off a defender which set up a last-minute winner vs. Spurs? Jelavic scored it, I think?

Tim Cahill making Lescott look silly as he back heels an assist to Van Persie.

Dutch 'playboy' Drenthe has no regrets

A playboy career that failed to reach its potential or misunderstood family man? Royston Drenthe on his time in football.

I seen him play sometimes Westy was dropped and kept out of the team for a spell if Andy played well - he did have mistakes in him, but what keepers even today have mistakes in them he was above average no 2 - our number 3 Keeper Geoff Barnett had a great career at Arsenal in those days.....
I hope Andy is ok and gets better soon - nice post by the way
