How bout a bit of credit for Barry Corr, regularly

[Tangled up in Blue]

I'm merely reporting on what was trending on Twitter yesterday.

And who were you following on Twitter yesterday?Certainly not me.

Personally, I don't think Messi tracks back enough, shows lack of commitment to the cause and work rate. :winking:

Actually this is a common criticism amongst Bar$a supporters.They let him off though because he's scored shedloads of goals for a few seasons now-unlike a certain SUFC striker.:winking:

Amazes me how Corr gets moaned at. If you look at his past record he has had an amazing season by his standards. He hasn't seemed fit all season yet he weighs in with goals. He will never get the credit he deserves as he is a bruiser rather than a flair player but personally I am delighted with his input.

Own goal.:hilarious:

What have you got against Barry Corr? If a player gets 20 goals a season, then I couldn't care how good they are.

Indeed not. Mostly interesting people.

Just ignore Barnacle... He's having another episode.

Glad you asked.I've got nothing whatsoever against Barry Corr.In fact he's proved himself to be quite a decent goalscorer at this level.

Like your good self I imagine(a legend in your own mind)?

Yep - and if he had proven himself to be a decent goalscorer at a level above then he wouldn't be playing for us. We are where we are, the players get paid a salary on league 2 wages so if they do well at this level then credit is due.

Stop cyberbullying.

That's quite true.And if PS hadn't worked with him before(twice)he wouldn't be playing for us now either.
I agree he's due full credit for what he's achieved this season.
Doubt if anyone will come in for him at the end of the season though, no matter how many he scores.Given his career long injury record(and previous disciplinary record)he'd be a huge gamble at any level above L2.

Banned? Darnit... What on Earth will I do now?

Continue with your sensible debating ?

I'm really failing to see your point.

I don't think anyone has said that he is a fantastic footballer etc. We are all baring your good self saying that as a L2 striker it dosent get much better than Bazza and 14 goals at this stage in the season is a good level for any player to get too.

As a side note I would also add that is this season alone he has now scored more goals for us than he has in the rest of his career if wiki is to be believed.

That's not true because, as JTSB pointed out before the season started, Corr had already "agreed" to join the club as one of Tilson's signings.

As for how in-demand he is, as I've said before goalscoring targetmen are hot property in the lower leagues if he keeps scoring goals then someone will be interested. Same story with Revs at Orient, to be honest.

 

[GrumpyBlue]

Best striker weve had since Scott Vernon.

Where is the smiley ? :smiles:

I think thats the point BC is operating at his level - A 4th division centre forward - like millions we have had before (Drewe, Mcdonut etc etc )

 

[mattytheshrimper]

I've been saying for ages that corr has been great for us but always surprised by the amount flack he gets.

his target now is to get 20 for the season and hopefully more. That would be a great signing considering we got him on a free. you've also got to say well done to sturruck.
