Casting rivalries aside,is there a pig player you wouldnt mind in our team?I cant think of one who would improve us.
 



Errrrm... Coke or Johnson at a push. But it would be a push.
 
Pretty much the entire forward line, particularly Johnson if he was fit. Tudgay, Morrison and Mellor all likely to have more impact than Evans and even Cresswell the way he's played this season.
 
No, they are a league two side with a decent side for that division.

Tudgay was a decent player on his day, but i'd be surprised if he can be bothered too often this season.

Morrison and Mellor are suited to that division

You are a tinker. And talk complete bobbins occasionally.

Can't remember but I'm sure they managed a better result against Hartlepool this season than us.
Morrison, Irish international, Mellor, scored for Liverpool/West Ham in the top flight, decent record for Preston, Tudgay subject of bids from a Premiership club both this season and last.
Pretty easy to make argument that they've got a better forward line.

You know full well that that's an awful argument. It's pure 'football supporter logic' and is now used ironically by most. Michael Tonge scored a couple of goals against Liverpool a few seasons ago in one match. Wayne Rooney only managed one. Michael Tonge is ergo the better player.

Actually, it could have been much worse. I expected him to go for the full team, manager, ground, debt, ST marketing, so for him to quote a few washed up nomarks is pretty restrained

If the argument had been solely based on the result of one match, you'd have a point.
But it wasn't, was it.
Now, if you want to set out arguments why Evans, Cresswell and Boggy are better than the aforementioned three, go ahead.
But the fact that it's even debateable should tell you how poor our frontline is.
 
It would be hard to compare their three with ours in different divisions.Cresswell,Evans,and Bogdanovic are facing arguably better defenders than Morrison,Tudgay and Mellor.Morrison as scored at this level but dont remember Tudgay,or Mellor pulling any trees up in the championship Back to the original question i dont think they have a player that would get in our side.

Wait on, you held up the Hartlepool match as an example. Don't go pulling your usual move of changing the goalposts when you've been proven to being a bit silly.

Nevertheless, let's take a look (in the similar way to which you did):
- Ched: current Welsh international and has been in double figures in a Championship side
- Cresswell: scored in the top flight and got into double figures last season
- Bogdanovic: current international (*snigger*) and got into double figures last season
- Hendo: scored in the top flight and has reached double figures in this league numerous times

Tudgay is terribly inconsistent and the increased last bid for him was 500k. Morrison was ridiculed by Cov supporters last year and they were over the moon to get rid. Mellor is overweight, inconsistent and has struggled to score large amounts despite his footballing heritage.

If our bunch were at Wednesday and in the league they're in, they'd score a bunch and you'd want them here. It's a typical Lenny move and you're usually better than that.
 
No.
Mellor - fat arsed has-been, more likely to score in a convent than the Premier League again.
Tudgay - if he was good enough for this division on a consistent basis he'd not still be a the sty, plus he's a mardy twat.
Morrison - not good enough for Coventry, or even Donny Papergirls.
The rest - they are about at their level.

So basically, thank you but no.
 
In reality there's sod all difference in the frontlines, however much you'll want to twist and turn to say it isn't so.
I wouldn't say I'd want their entire frontline but it's hard to imagine Tudgay being worse than Evans.

It really isn't. Did you see him at all least season?

Pretty much with you on this.

If big signings Mellor and Morrison are that good, what they doing playing non league football?

Tudgay maybe because when he's on form he can be a good player. Perhaps needs a change of scenery away from the sty.

No, but I've seen him score quite a good goal at the Lane and am aware lower Prem clubs remain interested.
I have however seen Evans many times and am aware that no Prem clubs or even Championship clubs are interested. And I can see why.
But it's one of those arguments where, in reality, everyone knows there's not much difference between their forwardline and ours but will feel the need to claim otherwise.
 
An overweight Mellor was excess at Preston how would he make a Championship side, he fits in at the third tier level nicely.
 
The only player I'd have is Tudgay.

Decent finisher, good pace and excellent spring for aerial balls would mean he'd do just fine for us.
 
Would have Tudgay over Evans. Tudgay is a more complete forward ( also good in the air - ched isn't )
 
Answering the original question.... No, of course bloody not.

Ask me in 1993. Waddle et al. No, of course bloody not.

Ask me next week. No, of course bloody not.
 
Maybe Peppa, but no one from Wendy atm.

Peppa has the lopsided eyes and generally ropey genetics of a Wendy fan. It's like the Hills Have Eyes set in Hillsborough

Yes, plenty. Johnson, Teale and Tudgay as absolute certainties and a couple of midfielders. No idea who but they will be better players than Monty and Quinn.

You don't know who the players are, but you know they'd be better than Monty and Quinn. So good will they be that they are currently plying their trade a division below us. They can't be that good then, can they? In fact I'd go so far as to say that you'd prefer a dead dog on a stick to Quinn and Monty just because it's you, and even though we are aware that neither player will be hunted down by Barcelona any time soon they are far from being the two worst players, as some posters put it, "on the entire planet, ever."

So shit are they that several professional football managers have chosen to pick them to play for Sheffield United. Who do you manage Mic? Or are you not employed by a professional football club, even though you can spot a good or bad player from a mile away?

I know that Monty and Quinn have their limitations, as many players do in the second division of many countries - if they didn't have any then they'd not be playing at the level they are, but to suggest that any two players regardless of who they are would be better than Quinn or Monty is ridiculous.

Perhaps the "pro" camp can see more than the "anti" camp. I'm quite happy to accept that Quinn and Monty aren't the two greatest players in the world, in fact Quinn has been dreadful of late. They aren't even the two greatest players in the division; but saying that any two players from a division below would be better even without knowing who they are is ridiculous.

Imagine if you will that I give you a plate of food, maybe a beef pie, and you declare that the next thing I give you will be nicer even though you have no idea of what it is. It might be a lovely chip butty, it might be a cow pat butty. That's the problem with buying "sight unseen", sometimes you get a shit sandwich, but to declare that the possibility of that would be better than the plain pie you've already got is foolish at best.
