I’d be surprised if you can tell a footballer like Kee looks jaded, and surprised if his style of football would make him tired.

Brown, Nolan... they are the ones doing all the graft. Jackson, the Don, Clark... they do a lot of running but Billy mainly just stands there.

He didn’t have his best game on Tuesday but it didn’t seem anything more than he was well covered by their defence.
 
For a neutral watching the game last night it must have been a pleasure to watch as two teams came out trying to play football on a 'Zippy' pitch

cannot agree with that i,m afraid. for me a really dull and forgettable game. a neutral would have been bored or frozen to death by it. we got 3 points which is what i wanted and forgot about the game by the time i reached the end of the M65.

Billy's even better than I thought then, not many players could score 18 goals & have 8 assists to their name by 'just standing there'! :rolleyes:

Totally disagree.

Billy mainly just stands there.

Again, disagree. I am used to watching Billy try to hassle defenders as they try to clear the ball - and goalkeepers making clearances.
He did none of that on Tuesday. Running seemed to be an effort for him.

But I am sure that I am wrong - I bow to your superior knowledge.

think we all see matches differently. some enjoyed tuesday night and i imagine others like me found it boring. agree with your take on billy and glad we have a free week next week after the barnet game for all to re charge their batteries.
 
Well I hope that our Super Billy Kee carries on........"Just standing there"....:rolleyes:
Then he should bag another twelve goals before the end of the season and get another half a dozen assists in. He should then finish up as League Two Top Scorer with THIRTY goals to his name and he will have played a MASSIVE part in Accrington Stanley being PROMOTED!:jimbo::mosher:
Yeah....Keep on Billy........."Just standing there!!!!"
:dummy:
 
The tactic of "just standing there" is nothing new. In a recent article by Graeme Souness he described how he'd been out for some weeks with an injury and, when he was picked for the next game, Joe Fagan told him that he won't be able to cover the whole ground. "Just stand there", said Joe, "and let the ball come to you". ;)

Perhaps all of our players should............."Just stand there!"
Then we would "RUNAWAY" with the League!
:rolleyes:;)
I have just read The ninety two, and billy kee is second, behind Liverpools Salah in all four divisions for goals @ assists, not bad for someone who just stands their, i'm certain some watch different matches to others.:rolleyes:
 
Oh dear, I gather that it is a hanging offence to suggest Billy is anything but superhuman in everything he does.

Sorry all, but I’ve seen far better forwards than Billy over the years (sniffer Clarke, Lee Chapman) and believe me they also did sod all running about but they didn’t half stuff the ball in the old onion bag regularly.

There’s nothing wrong with that. Honestly, there isn’t.
