Deptford Yellow 258 Posted July 22, 2022 I quite liked him … At least he was prepared to run at players and take them on - he reminded me of a bowling ball knocking skittles aside … 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted July 22, 2022 He was a bit crap, one of those look down at your feet and run with the ball and hope for the best type of players that would just play averages with whacking a ball in the box or take pop shots and get lucky now and again. But he was still better than Placheta, at least he'd run at people even if he'd sometimes trip over his own feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can remember him unmarked in the right wingback position on numerous occasions and the players just would not pass to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tumbleweed 106 Posted July 23, 2022 From memory Marshall said he had a really horrible time as he had to live in some castle thing in Norfolk. Tough life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in year 2024 on Football Manager and he's in League Two, where he's not pulling up any trees. Billy Gilmour hasn't played a single competitive game since returning to Chelsea from Norwich, I scouted him out of interest and the conclusion of my very talented scouts was "decent Championship player". Often Webber gets accused of playing a real life game of Football Manager, but perhaps he ought to use it more! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Under The Cosh perpetuates dreadful early noughties "lad culture", and they find stories of binge drinking quite funny, but even that bunch thought Ben Marshall was pretty tragic, you could tell, awkward silence from Chris Brown (the former Norwich striker) when Ben Marshall slagged off Norwich. From the Grant Holt one you could tell Chris Brown liked it here and wanted to succeed, Unfortunately he was just sh*t at football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
