I like John Robertson, Craig Levien, Colin Cameron, Adam, rudi.tosh, Davie Mac, JC, Robbie N,... This game's easy! With that in mind. Not seen Roy Keane mentioned. Scott Brown was, though........

Yeah, and while I can get the respect for the Thumb, and I know Brown does all kinds of good things off the pitch, on it I just hate him. I'd put Kenny Miller, Brown, and Imrie and the top of my current SPFL player shitlist. Always like Andy Carroll. Never worth the fees paid for him but I enjoy watching him.

TorinoJambo Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I always had time for Peter Grant. Absolute bampot but likeable with it. Heard a tale from Lockie that PG and Pasquale Bruno got on well. I know it's borderline sacrilege but I also had time for Yogi. Dirty Hibbie but couldn't help liking him.

Scallywag Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Pirlo - He could walk around the pitch and control the entire game, class. Leigh Griffiths - Not the brightest but I do admire how much he has improved. Gazza - Quality player and daft as a brush Henrik Larson - Sheer class, privelaged to have seen him play.

Five to One Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Eric Black gave defenders a torrid time. Incredible in the air. Shame he had to retire due to injury.

Met Scott Brown a while back at Center Parcs and he was really not that bad. Had his kids with him and made sure they didn't act like idiots towards the younger ones, and even went in goals to let a few penalties through his legs for the little ones.

I think the self-awareness that you have racist thoughts sometimes is a big protection from saying it out loud. It's people who refuse to acknowledge it who blurt out with that stuff.

Yeah he'd be better than absolute dross but that's not a good enough reason to keep a player, especially an international who'll need to be playing regularly - if we couldn't promise him that the then it was right for him to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgiewave Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 In Scotland, Ally McCoist. Only Larsson has been as good a forward in Scotland in the last 40+ years. I've seen Zidane playing in Real Madrid and Juventus masters' teams, alongside Roberto Carlos, Figo and Butragueño and against Nedved and several others. He was a mile ahead of all of them. He had controlled the ball before it reached him and controlled the game without effort, without breaking sweat and often without leaving the centre circle. More impressive than Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, comparable only to Usain Bolt and Muhammad Ali for effortless superiority and mastery.
