There's a piece on the BBC now about Brett being the first player to score for the same club in each of the top four divisions. :)

Great stuff!
I am sure that it is for Blackpool??? Hasn't Earnshaw scored Hatricks in all 4 Leagues?? Maybe wrong and I am sure that somebody will point it out if I am... :D :D :D
 
reread what he said 'Brett being the first player to score for the same club in each of the top four divisions.' That club that he mentions may well be Blackpool you know :rolleyes::D
 
I have re-read it Sparkie :) I still understand it the same, somebody else has scored for the same club, in all four leagues... :) :) :) Brett has done it for Blackpool!
 
i dont think anyone else has scored for the same club in each of the four divisions. How many clubs have played in all four divisions in a relatively short time span? Wimbledon on the way up, Bradford on the way down .... any more?
 
As a side issue,a footballing friend who attended the game with me was impressed with the standard of footy played by Acci,and also was impressed with Sean Mac !!!

Perhaps more than a side issue. This is something that happens a lot. Speaking to a Wycombe fan after the game on Sat, he was impressed with Craney for his ability to drift away from his marker in dangerous positions. I remember a Mansfield fan raving about John Miles after we had beaten them in the league a few years ago - poor workrate, sure, but he hadn't given the ball away all afternoon.

This is easier said than done, but familiarity with a player's shortcomings ought not to leave us unappreciative of the qualities they do have, even if you think they don't remind us of those qualities often enough.
 
Phil,thats agreat post and agree 100%. John Miles work ethnic left a lot to be desired,but when he had the ball you always felt he could create something,this may upset a few people,but thats the sign of a quality player and JC was probably aware of this.
 
Football 19 I think what you are referring to there are what I would term luxury players

Players that can change games in the bat of an eye but lower down the leagues there are not many of those who can actually do it on a regular basis and thus can appear in fan's eyes as being uniterested etc. the odd thing is as you go further up the leagues particulary PL you will find them by the score.
 
pendle red,I agree with that!!,got frebbie tickets to watch man utd recently and you wouldnt believe how bad Rooney was,He wouldnt get in Accis reserves,never mind the first team.
Out of 20 passes,19 went astray, and guess what,the only decent pass was shown on match of the day! and not the other 19,not bad for 200k a week
