Howmanheyman 33113 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 He's a thick as fuck, bitter smoggy tbh. Good footballer when he had the occasional bout of fitness. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosco 759 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 On his day for us he was great and even made Titus Shambles look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Another we can expect to be bringing up how much he loved playing for us in a couple of year to get on radio/tv. Class player, but also thick as fuck. As Alex said his lifestyle was to blame, shame really as he could have had a really amazing career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 20112 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Lets be straight. On his day, he literally was close to world class. One of the best CB in Europe without a doubt. But he enjoyed too much of the devils dandruff (allegedly). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 4247 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Not allegedly. He went to my secondary school in boro, Nunthorpe. He loved the Dickens inn in boro and was there with big time coke heads most weekends. He was a class defender on his day mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35059 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I think he was only available for about 1/3 of the games during his time here. Absolute brilliant defender when he was fit though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was common knowledge he was into Disco dust. There was some suggestion that Gibbo had to step in and move him and Downing away as they'd got themselves into some bother with a handy drug dealer. Not sure whether Stu Downing was on the white stuff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also pretty rapid. He wasn’t quite the same player when he came back from Madrid and seemed to have lost a yard of pace. He could play a bit too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Irrespective of his social choices, he's by some distance the best central defender I've seen in a black & white shirt. Imagine if we'd had someone of his calibre in the 1995/96 season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
