Charlton Fans Views on Ricky Holmes

[gavtheblade]

Clayton Donaldson?

Coutts there it is.
Reading at home

 

[INTAKE BLADE]

Cheers Roy

Now there’s a fair amount of luck in smashing those in from 35 yards as any footballer will admit. Take away those goals and what have you got? Yes, he can get his head down and bomb down the wing, and cross the ball. And he does give 100%. In fact he can shoot given the chance.

...but apart from that..

But to me he’s a little bit of a one trick pony.


...like wtf!?

one trick eh?.. that’s the trick we need!

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

I was very impressed with this guy at the Lane last season, I have high hopes for this signing.

 

[Caveblade]

Thanks Roygbiv, interesting read as ever. Some slagging him because he's going, lets just hope he is as useless as Flecky!

 

[JohnStreet]

RICKYYYYYYYY

 

[adebo]

Clayton Donaldson?

John fleck, Paul coutts

 

[HillmortonBlade]

John fleck, Paul coutts

I've a bias towards our kid Donaldson

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

So he’s brilliant, he’s shit, he’s great at set pieces, he’s shit at set pieces, he’s in great form, he’s in shit form. Oh forgot he’s a drug dealer have I missed anything?

 

[Bladezz]

He’s an exciting player coming into an exciting system with an exciting formation.

I’m excited.

I just cannot wait to go and watch the Blades again. Thank you for bringing this back here CW.

 

[Iceybabey]

Hopefully he brings abit of what we had before the Coutts injury. Abit of class.

Thanks Weirdo - first time I’ve seen “rancid” in one of your missives

 

[DiggerBlade]

Cheers Roy.

 

[HighfieldBlade]

I bet you the pigs had one eye on Holmes, what with their CEO being ex-Charlton.

 

[Carlton Blade]

So he's really Good, puts 100% in every week and scores great goals. However, there are games when he doesnt score 5 goals from the half way line so actually he's not that great?

Football fans are the best

 

[SB_90]

Alot like Leonard. He got a bit to live up to as wilder wanted him since day 1 but for gentleman agreements & protracted transfers its taken him a while. So i have huge faith in him & i dont get the point of his age because for me our current player of the year mark duffy is 32

Dont worry i didnt have fun with a Charlton fan

Surely thats a piss take! If it's not its the most deluded and bitter posts i've seen in a while. Could almost

one trick eh?.. that’s the trick we need!

His one trick being that he's a really good attacking footballer

 

[Trigger Blade]

I'm particularly looking forward to his corner "repartee".

Football needs more one liners and witty banter before failing to beat the first man

 

[Tommoblade66]

Decent at set pieces, which is what we need

 

[Doddyontheball]

A player doesn’t go from hero to zero in a short space of time. Methinks the ladies doth protest too much

 

[mattbianco1]

Have to feel sorry for Charlton. Club is being ripped apart from the inside. Thanks for Ricky though... And Wilder...

Really?
We need the key to the door when teams park the bus and Mr Holmes could provide that.
How many goals have we scored, direct from free kicks?
How good are our corners?
When do we beat the first man from a corner and whip tha bastard in?
Who has scored from outside the box besides Nathan Thomas?
That can make the difference between a draw and a win.
I reckon if we had Holmes available last Friday he would have come on for Duffy and might have produced the spark we needed.
(btw - I am a Duffy fan but that game was crying out for better dead ball delivery or a screamer)

(PS - we also need the wing backs to learn how to cross the fecking ball with some quality)

Billy Sharp - at least twice this season

Unless she’s a useless CEO !!!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
what he said spot on look forward to his impact

At £400-£500k? Pah, Wendy aren't interested if he's not more than £4m as otherwise he can't be any good.

Take Reach and Rhodes as examples......er......

what with their CEO being ex-Charlton.

I don't think she's what you would describe as a "proper football woman".

She probably knows him though as he is the only one with cute litte hair bun thing.
