Blair Sturrock

[Greebosan]

Depends on how Luggy want to play it, but in the past I think we've been too defensive at home. If squad rotation is the plan, then I think Blair could do a good job slotting in behind Benyon and just feeding balls through to him. He would give us an extra link between midfield and attack and provide a bit of cover in the middle. By all accounts he played well in midfield in the reserves game so his inclusion may give Luggy the extra stability in midfield needed to take a chance on Hall and Martin starting together, as well as giving us another attacking option. Now we're in the business end of the season, any player who gives us the option to change formation or style game on game is going to be useful.

I was only using it as an example of what someone might say, not necessarily me, so don't get angry SBH.

It's okay, Dailly is good thanks, sorry you misread though.

Seem's you fell victim to it also eh ;-) perhaps

 

[dashman]

He said he 'perhaps' has more in his locker than Blair, who he was basically saying is terrible. It's like saying loads of women are more attractive than Jo brand, perhaps even Vanessa feltz. I'm not sure either would be happy with that statement

'Perhaps yeah'

A master of the understatement!!

I'd say at over 60 Ian "Chico" Hamilton would be better than some of the players we currently have at the club.

'we can rebuild him' or 'feel the force Blair'

Any Jedi mind tricks!?!

He really is just a crap footballer who has been kept in employment by his dad. What he did to warant a new contract in January I dont know. If he gets a new deal in the summer, I will truly despair.

Do we really want to?

Interesting how our best football last night, passing football with god link up play coincided with Blair being on the pitch

Now you're going too far.... :winking:

Conversely our worst football was played in the second when Blair was also playing. Overall none of the football we played last night was effective as Aldershot's defence hardly broke into a sweat all evening

Lol. The hold the ball up and tap it backwards thing also produced only 1 half decent shot at goal and helped the Aldershot defence to dominate our forwards.

We produced not one decent effort on goal so Im not sure what youre saying has any credence. 7 goals in 63 games says it all.

I'm not talking about goals scored, i'm talking about the all round play last night. You brought goals into the equation to justify your slagging off of Blair because that's the only way you can discredit him. His movement and hold up play along with his passing last night made it the best football we have played in a while

Is that really the case. We conceded after Blair had gone off and only after we conceded did we panic and revert to hoofball.

Brilliant, but what use is passing with no end result? Useless. Play Flood, or Sampson or anyone else. Just not Blair Sturrock.

With his back to goal and laying passes onto the midfield running on, he won't have a shot at goal.


Sampson is gash and flood is an unknown quantity
