Papa Lazaru 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 N-O is like a kiddie's playground though isn't it? 39656[/snapback] Thats the problem, and its a shame because at times there can be quite a few people on there and a chance for plenty of debate. But it has too many childish pricks who as soon as you disagree with them go into "playground insult mode" and just start making up nonsense and ruin any chance of debate. I have no problem with other people having the oppositte opinion to me, it makes arguments more interesting than us all agreeing, but some of the people on their are incapable of actually arguing the point (whether it be Souness, Bellamy, Robert, tactics, or anything else) and just act like pricks. It also has its share of people who for example want no more mention of Bellamy because they hate him and he's evil and to get no more mention of him they start threads about him, post in other peoples threads about him and keep mentioning him contiunously...what i'm saying is they are complete cocks!

But it does amuse me when people who categorically state they are glad to be rid of Bellamy/Robert and don't care one bit about them anymore are always to be found either starting threads about them or posting the most in threads about them!

LeazesMag 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Excuse me lads, but what the fuck has all this religious bollocks got to do with Craig Bellamy exactly? Can we just get back to arguing about him again! 39595[/snapback] I'll ask you seeing that Leazes isn't answering it. When will you drop the whole "Bellamy" subject? 39615[/snapback] when Gemmill admits he's wrong about something 39619[/snapback] I thought you were a decent poster once. Does that count? 39630[/snapback] but now I'm good .......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 LM, my only problem with your views on Bellamy are that they are so one-sided. Of course he was a good player, but he was far from being without his faults (on the pitch as well as off). You go on like we've flogged Maradonna. 39632[/snapback] yep and nope Alex. I know he had faults, he was gobby. As a player he wasn't muscular and strong, but neither did Shearer have Bellamys pace ..... so he wasn't perfect either. I don't think they are one sided, I just see him as a player, and a top player who was hounded out of the club by a fuckwit of a manager who couldn't be bothered to manage him. Whats one-sided about that ? Have we replaced him for the fee we got for him ? Will we replace him for the fee we got for him ? Did we do better or worse without him ? Nowt else matters matey !

Bottled Dog 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 3-5-2 39976[/snapback] 3-5-2 is an extremely versatile formation and one which Bobby was wrong to discard due to fans who had neither the wit nor the patience to see how it could be used to devastating effect (seen for much of one of its rare outings against Man City). My God, our weakest areas are at left back and right back and with 3-5-2 we simply don't have to play them! It is the perfect formation for our present squad and along with myself I hope I can count on many of you to write to Souness and his staff stating as such. Do you think it's worth writing to my M.P too, or think that Alan Oliver might take up the cause? I think he might you know, a pretty sensible and selfless fella all told.
