Anton Ferdinand

I was born in 1978, so I can’t say I was paying a great deal of attention to the TV in the late ‘70s, even when I was actually looking at it! :smile:

Ah, point accepted. Apologies 'spaceman'

Dig out the old Grange Hill stuff and you'll see Stebson in all his glory. :thumbsup:

Maher to me was a bit like Bobby Moore in his day, Ok nowhere near as good, but Bobby passed sideways most of the time and was safe the same as Maher....They both went forward when there was space....I doubt Bobby ever scored 2 such spectacular goals as Kev did against QPR at home a few years back....I think we won 4-1 but i forget the year.

Doubt it mate... it's probably the 4-1 win over QPR on 27/3/1954 you're remembering...

I reckon the old boy might be thinking of the 1927/28 season when we beat QPR 7-0. Blimey, Merthyr Town and Wellington Town was in that Division 3 South.

Good point.

I really think our next signing should be a Gripper Stebson type character.

Gripper was a bully and we have just got rid of one of those

Now Brown has gone I hope we are not looking for a new scapegoat already.

Are you new here?

so

I really doubt that will happen, and why 10 days?

Good point.

OMG a Grange Hill reference. I still remember the scene where he was ridiculed for not being able to read in a biology lesson

Aah! But was Gripper harder than, Tucker's nemisis "Booger Benson". I think not.

5-0 that was. 9th February 2007.

Comparing him to Bobby Moore, I'm not so sure. They played in different positions.

wasn’t Simon Royce in goal for QPR that day - a real ‘welcome home’

If I remember correctly Royce gifted us the first goal and we all sang Roycey is a Shrimper.

Tell me. The club is managerless, the fans worried. Why the need to stir something up out of absolutely nothing. If you have something that is a fact then post it. If not then this is nothing more than hearsay at completely the wrong time. Saying we can do better than Anton at CB would have done fine. That’s an opinion and they are divided.
