sheded 0 Posted February 16, 2006 These somersaults from the Welsh dwarf ..... sooner or later he`s going to get it wrong , and break his fool neck ! then what ? 4 mill down the pan ! Nigel and the board must watch him performing this stunt with a pained expression , bad enough when a scorer gets leapt on by mounds of playmates , suddenly increasing his weight by a factor of six + ! but Earnie in a neck brace for six months [ if he`s lucky ] ? let him confine himself to netting the ball [ courtesy of the hard work of Hucks and WLY ] and quit showboating !!

sheded 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Rubbish Ranky ! I`ve done enough gymnastics to know that unsupported somersaults are dangerous ... one slip and your neck snaps ! simple as that ... Earnie has an ego thats just waiting to turn into an attitude , as for natural creative instincts , all he`s displayed so far , is that he wants every ball to fall at his feet while he`s hanging around the penalty box ! s**t even Doc or Flemmo would be banging them in if this happened !! the REAL creative play is coming from Hucks and WLY , without them Earnie wouldn`t be doing anything except going into a sulk ! guaranteed !!

[/quote]absolutely, Erny has an ego and an attitude... I wouldn''t want to tempt fate as regards to that one. However he can finish very well, and looks like he is strong with the ball at his feet. And you are right again, without Hucks and McVeigh we would be in the big doo doo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Jones 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Why the uproar? He''s always celebrated goals this way since he started his career. Cardiff did try and stop him at one stage but gave up in the end. Think a bigger problem would be if he stopped doing this exercise because that would mean he''d completely dried up goals wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
no1canary 0 Posted February 16, 2006 he''s been doing them since he was like 8 or something. thats thousands of sommeraults. (he would have scored ALOT in a season at youth level). thats his celebration. you cant take that away from him, and no-one as the right to either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]Sorry mate but I don''t agree with you! Earny celebration is unique only to a few players (Earnshaw, Lua Lua and Agahowa). I like to see a good celebreation, at least he''s showing some passion for the game. Another thing is if Earny ever did break his neck and retire, norwich wouldnt lose out because all the players are Insauranced, For example Dean Richards of Tottenham had to quit and spurs got 3 Million so don''t worry about that. Earny won''t though, he know''s what he''s doing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]i think we should just order him not to celebrate. and while we''re at it, inform all gymnasts competing at the olympics they cant do back flips as sheded reckons their dangerous. for the record its a SOMERSAULT, not a back flip as he rotates forward (i know sheded got thisa right but many others havent. and when worthless tells Earnie to stop the somersaults, he can also tell him to stop shooting in case he kicks the ground and breaks an ankle. and no sprinting in case he tears a muscle. and most clubs have insurance to cover against career ending injuries for expensive players anyway.

Maybe we should ban overhead kicks and diving headers?Should be ban all players from driving performance cars too? Cos I''d say the chances of losing a player that way are far greater.You''ve got me agreeing with Wiz now, I hope you''re proud of yourself :) What with him laughing at one of my light hearted digs if this keeps up we''ll be looking for a room....Personally its good to see a player with the confidence to celebrate like Earnie does, I bet hes so used to it that a goal doesn''t feel the same until hes performed his party trick :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheded 0 Posted February 17, 2006 To those who havent twigged yet .... this thread WAS a bit of a send up !! [6] anything to get away from the continuous " Worthy out " moans infesting this forum ....Here`s a reality check for those who smugly think that insurance companies would pick up the tab if the " dragon " did break his neck , performing a stunt that they would consider self inflicted ....... yeah ! like they would happily fork out millions if it happened , get real !! I don`t know the conditions that surround insurance for the players at NCFC , but you can bet your arse that there would be many clauses attached to the contract , and the premiums would be steeeeep .... Lets say this insurance company notified the club that the dragons antics are considered a risk , over and above anything mentioned in the certificate .... and that, if it continued , the premiums would have to be increased to match the risk , get the drift ? the club would have to fork out considerable sums to cover that risk ! There`s a poster that says he works for Norwich Union , maybe he can add something to this insurance question ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
