Here are mine from my previous post We are just over halfway through the season and thought i would give my half term scores and verdict on the team: Ruddy: 7 started off a bit shaky, couple of rickets, but is getting better week by week, needs to be a bit more commanding in his area. R Martin: 9 the most improved and most consistent player in the team, chipped in with a couple of goals as well POTS front runner so far L Barnett: 8 best signing so far this season built a good partnership with Ward only indiscretion was the red card and ball throwing against Pompey E Ward: 8 Formed a good partnership with Barnett and has settled in well A Drury: 6 great when he''s in the team, if he stays injury free we have an excellent back 4 Crofts: 8 he''s here he''s there he''s * everywhere, nuff said, been immense in midfield Russell who? Smith: 7 Consistent as ever, needs to chip in with a few more goals, still learning tho Lappin: 7 Mr I can and will play anywhere, consummate professional deserve new contract and best crosser of the ball we have. Hoolahan: 8 was a bit off the boil at the start of season and was rightly dropped, last 2 months tho been on fire and glad he has signed a new deal. Also his work rate has been excellent as has his tackling and defending. C Martin: 5 to be fair has been * so far, doesn’t look interested (maybe his court case is on his mind) only scored 4 league goals and looks fat and lazy, would be worried if Lambert brings in another out and out striker Holt: 8 Started slowly was injured and had no pre season but has now proved his critics wrong works his arse off and scored 3 against the scum The Rest: Nelson: 6 when he’s played done a good job when needed and has proved people wrong that he can play at this level. Fox: 7 good signing comfortable on the ball does the Croft role well when needed. McNamee: 4 utter *** when he starts a game cant cross a bridge, not a championship player, might do something if he comes on last 10 mins of a game but that’s all, very poor man’s Hoolahan. Jacskon: 5 has bags of pace and scored some good goals needs more time on the pitch and deserve to start more than Martin. Surman: 6 when he is fit you can see what a class act he is if it was on performances only would have been a 7 or 8, need him back fit. Askou, Whitbread, Smith, Oli, Gill, Wilbraham and OTJ haven’t played enough for a rating. Special mention to Lansbury who I hope we keep as he could be the key to making the chances to score that could see us promoted.

I did mine on a post recently "half term report" and how anyone can give C Martin more than 6 is way beyond me!

[quote]Go and watch Chris Martin please.... And if you still don''t understand, go and talk to Lambert.......[/quote] I go to every home and game and a fair few away so have seen martin a lot and he is slow, lazy and has contributed nothing this season, I would love him to score 20 goals again this season but he wont and he found his level and league 1

[quote user="city till i die"]haha martin 5, you clearly watch a different game to me, his touches and build up play have been as good as any.[/quote] you need to take them blinkers off mate, doesnt do any off that and has been piss poor this season has 4 goals and 2 assists in the league in 17 starts and 8 subs, stands around looking for his next sandwich.

If i was a reporter I would have said fine but answer the question the fans you say are so brilliant at the club want to hear from you are you staying or do you want to talk to Burnley so answer the fucking question

it defiantely happened and martin was 10 yards away scratching his arse. He is a lazy bastard and Jackson has a better goals per game record this season both have 4 goals each but Martin has started more games. Jacskon was unlucky to be substituted on saturday as he was played on the wing and ran his nuts off but isnt a winger. Martin should have come off for Wes and Jackson put through the centre. Yes he is a good finisher but is a lazy workshy tosser and more people in the crowd are realising it

if you dont like the prices, you know what you can do. Simples!

You''re winning the game 2-1. They are down to 10 men. Start of the second half we play about 30 odd passes from left to right between the midfield and defence, making them chase the ball for 5 minutes. And the crowd start moaning that we arent attacking, dont they know anything about football. If we have the ball they cant score. The tactics were spot on, we knew they would have to go for it in the last 20 mins and bring on a striker, so we kept he ball and knackered them out, then when they made the change we broke and scored 2 goals in 2 minutes. Tactis spot on, and to the people who moaned that we kept posession you''re all fucking idiots

Hoolahan is stalling over a new contract, he is out of contract at the end of the season and has been offered a deal and doesnt want to sign one. He is waiting to see if anyone bigger comes in for him before making a decsion, so Lambert has benched him because of this. Why do you think he got Landsbury in instead of cover at left back. I hope he does sign a new deal but am behind Lambert and if Hooly doesnt wanna play for us the fine thanks for everything but fuck off.

dont care all ex players and ex players for a reason only one i care about is cody and it was a briliiant goal he scored

you just can''t let it go can you Shack, even tho you have driven him out you still have to keep having a go - Prick

meant buy lol, and also shows what a shit job doomcaster did taking us to the brink

Quality answer to the studentt hat bitched about the ticket prices, by a season ticekt you mug, then if you go more than 7 times you have your money back - dickhead

[quote user="Razzmatazz"]Etuhu was quality for us, how anyone could ever put him in a city worst ever side is beyond me.[/quote] Etuhu was dog shit, had no anticipation at all jsut watched the ball and box to box player my arse, would be in my worst XI easily probably as captain.

1) Russell Martin 2) Drury 3) Holt 4) Crofts 5) Korey

THe only way some of the points being rasied would work is if a persons season ticket price was means tested. Bloody students bitching about the prices annoys me, if y ou can''t afford it, don''t go. I know lots of people that are in full time employment that can''t afford to go and they don''t moan that they don''t get a discount. I travel from essex for every home game, i''m divorced with 2 kids and in debt. Money is tight but i put aside the money to make sure I can go to games. If i couldn''t afford to go then that''s just life, tough shit, i''d get over it. We need to compete as a club and I have no problems what-so-ever with the club putting up casual prices, we are in debt and have to reduce that, we are no longer little old norwich, but some of our fans would like us to be. Concessions should only be given to under 18''s and over 65''s, with the latter getting only a small discount. I know a lot of over 65''s that go that are better off than me so why do they deserve a discount and not me?

he is doing fine on another forum where he won''t get abused on a daily basis. I''ll pass on your regards

no i didn''t, i hear he played well against forest and was ok at best against scunny, obviously i can only go on what i''ve seen and swansea was terrible i love hooly but was glad when he was substituted. I think it''s only a blip, form is temporary class is permanent and we all know he is a class act.  Maybe he is trying too hard at home?

[quote user="Yellows"]Naa scummer, been top drawer so far this season, sorry.[/quote] Totally disagree with that, he has been gash so far this year, his final ball in the games against watford and swansea have been woeful wither playing balls to no one or giving it to an opposing player. I wouldn''t agree that he is out of his depth coz he is a quality player but so far this season has been very poor.

[quote user="morty"][quote user="paulo79"] So just because i swore at the bloke my argument is wrong.  The bloke needed to be called that it was way out of line.  He deserved to be smacked in the mouth for what he said but i''m not a violent person. If anyone agrees with taking the piss like that so personally against the disabled they deserve to get a mouthful and some [/quote] It was a lovely touch wishing he was in a wheelchair too. [:)] [/quote]   PMSL i thought so [;)]

[quote user="morty"]I think someone may be going to sit on the naughty step soon. [:)] [/quote]   Sit on it i think i own it

oh very clever delete my posts, truth hurts doesn''t it

whats swearing got to do with moral high ground, i can make an argument with or without expletives, but that bloke went over the line, it pissed me off and it needed to be said.
