Quoted from Lincoln Mariner 56


Seems to me he just has an opinion on a particular player, doesn’t make him an idiot. I’m not a big fan of Clifton but recognise I’m in a very small minority but suppose most on here think I’m an idiot for having that view.

The ability, or lack of it, of players has always divided opinions that’s why some Managers buy certain players that others wouldn’t touch with a barge pole. Arguments every weekend in our local about the qualities of players it’s part of being a football fan.


McAtee comes to mind immediately. Scunny didn't rate him and Hursty did. The rest is history.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Have a look at our squad - very few were fancied as League Two players at the time of their arrival; the vast majority were either signed while in non-league, signed from non-league or here when Hurst arrived (second time around).

Dont get this love for Taylor at all.
Hes slow, cant hold the ball up for toffee
Cant win a header that much and when he does he gives a foul away.

I support whoever is on that pitch but its clear to see where we are failing.
None of the other strikers have had a run in the team yet but they get criticised.
Orsi or pepple given a run of games i think would be a huge improvement. they just need games.


Pick up the phone and give Hursty a call. Let him know that you know a 25 goal a season striker within our budget and, if you don’t, tell him you’re a Class 1 coach who can either a. make Taylor quicker or b. coach the midfield runners to be better without the ball and get closer to Taylor’s lay offs.

It about opinions. calling names shows your maturity. cretin.


So, in your answer you call him a name too, doesn't show you as being too mature does it?
