    “I haven't read the words worst signing anywhere on here, surely a pre-requosite for an online forum should be the ability to read?”

    “Worst signing ever? What are some people on. He scored 16 goals last season how many strikers have we had last 5 or 6 years get near that playing along side someone who got 30!?

    Maybe next some "supporters" will be slating Hearn for having his feet up (and iced haha) all season....


    haha”

    “Out of nappies lol superfluous drivel and finger pointing. Lee Ashcroft was a bad signing and never rated, Jimmy Gilligan was a doomed signing that we only made 5k on the drinkell deal after signing him he was never rated, and Lee Nogan was one of the best hold up men and channel runners I've seen at this club and with Livvo and Paul Chrichton was one of the most under rated players we've seen. If you read the words I put, I state over-rated; i.e players who were rated by the fans but were absolutely awful! I would throw Curtis Woodhouse in the ring too. I don't remember Gilligan I'd have only been 6, but I stand by my opinion, and would like it known I was out of nappies by 2 years old, if I had just been out of nappies in 1998 that would border on farce and disgrace, but well done you for trying to shout down my opinion without success.”

    “Interesting comment about the most overated players glebe,Ashcroft is a good example , have you forgotten about 2 of our other "big money" strikers? How about Jimmy Gilligan bought to replace Kevin Drinkell? And who could forget Lee "no goals" Nogan ?”

    “Pity its only a loan deal, he will be back in January when they realize he can't hit the proverbial cows backside with a banjo! Misses too many easy chances for my liking. He was average at best last season, and take away the own goals he claimed his record wasn't that good. Hope we have seen the back of him . U.T.M”

    “Seeing as O'shea has Elding pipping Widdowson for most overrated ever i'd guess he wasn't out of nappies when Ashcroft was around...

    Has he even heard of Willie Falconer, Mark Nicholls.... Compared to them Elding is in Messi's league. Short memories as usual, good luck to the lad.

    If Akpo can score seven in League 1 maybe he will do alright.”

    “marinersfangy I have supported gtfc for nearly 60 years so think I know something about the club trouble is we have people like you who think they know it all and **** players off regardless of how good they are with no thought of the players personal feelings But then again you are a football expert of course”
