JF 694 Posted March 4, 2010 [quote user="PurpleCanary"]There''s an argument that Dickov sent us down from the Premiership. We had been 2-0 up at home to Blackburn (who were down to 10 men) and Dickov shouldered the ball in for the equaliser with a minute or so to go. A crucial two points dropped, although the real blame lies with Worthington, who should have made some tactical changes.[/quote]Remember the game well. I thought Dickov was exceptional that day, a really top quality center forward performance. Past it now and can''t see the logic in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singing canary 0 Posted March 4, 2010 elliot will score more than dickov ... he is younger and hungry to prove himself .dickov is more than likely to retire soon ,and at a guess just wanting a free meal ticket . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Romantic 0 Posted March 4, 2010 Even Nels and the Doc can keep him in their pockets! I hope they play him against us to be frank. We made the better signing today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuglestad 0 Posted March 4, 2010 [quote user="Evil Monkey"]I can''t even see our Leeds friends getting excited about this one... he was way past his best about four or five years ago![/quote]Norwich City were way past their best four or five years ago! He''ll score a few vital tap ins, and always has the potential to get somebody sent off. If he''s done his homework and hassles Darrell Russell all game then Russell is highly likely to tw*t him.

Brendo 0 Posted March 4, 2010 Really doesn''t bother me. A 37 year old, 5"5 striker signing for Leeds, what next? They got McShefferey the other week heard nothing of him since. In fact, I can now see Leeds not getting auto if we give them a whoooping on the 27th. [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
