Thanks DB. Another 'not very surprising' match write up. Nil-nil against a team we should be shitting all over in front of a bumper, Bank Holiday crowd with everything to play for.
Funny isn't it. We have players come, and players go. Some come to BDTBL and play shit, and they get yards of criticism from us lot, then they move on and pull up trees (if not some ways better than when they were at our gaff). We miss a sackload of pretty good opportunities to sign proven goalscorers, but then again, given what happens to them when they get to Bramall Lane, possibly not such a bad thing. Everyone who comes here, plays like a cunt. Players like Ricardo Fuller, Cameron Jerome, Jason Scotland, Jamie Cureton, Chris Commons, Grant Holt, David Nugent, Dexter Blackstock, Michael Chopra - all sat round warming benches during the past six or eight years, all with proven strike capability. But what happens when they come to BDTBL? Doesn't matter what manager we have, by the way. Blackwell, Warnock, Speed ... we get players like that in - Hulse, for example, and the whole fucking assembly falls to bits. Look at the squad we have. Just look at the quality on offer. It is actually there if you look close enough. We have some pretty bloody good players - we did last season and the season before when we fucked it up then as well. But they come to the Lane and play like cunts. The only player who has developed reasonably well in the past five years is now sat in the slammer. He only started playing well when we dropped a league, because before that he was fucking abysmal. Look at the players who were shite who left us. Britton and Dyer at Swansea, Johnny Stead at Bristol City, Nyron fucking Nosworthy at Watford, Stephen Quinn at Hull City, Richie de Laet at Leicester, Jamie Ward at Derby, CKR at Blackburn ... they've al managed to find the net this season one way or another yet with some exceptions were shite, with shite aspects when they wore the stripes. You may not agree here, but something gets to the players as soon as they drive into the car park. The excitement we feel ... 'Oooh ... we've signed such-and-such,' turns into disappointment as soon as they run out onto that pitch and play our style of non-connected, hit-and-hope crap.
Yet when they move on, it's another story in most cases ...
Anyone else want to offer an explanation?
