Paul lighten up for God's sake. I see you've only got 50 posts anyway. I've probably posted more times on this Board! Take a chill pill brother.
I agree cara it is a disgrace to see out no 9 overweight sluggish, lost a yard of pace at the moment, so we've been paying him 25K a week to not do his job properly,
Nope People bang on about holt being a slow starter and there is an element of truth to that but he shoud work to be in peak condition for the start of the season to try and maximize the. Possibility of getting off to a flyer and carrying weight illustrates he hasn't do e that.
Come on mate. He was bloody awful against WHU. My son is one of his biggest fans but even he lost patience with his poor control, inability to jump from a standing start and his repeated fouling of the opposition. I'm not Morison's biggest fan but thought he looked far sharper. And Jackson must have had a bit of anger about being the first substitution despite his greater contribution. He has been a Titan for three years but that doesn't give him the right to a starting spot. And there was always going to be extra criticism of him after the close season dealings. There is no need for the name calling especially from our own supporters but strikers get the money and plaudits when they scoring so I guess they get the ****e when they aren't.
You said it yourself mate, people were ready to slag him off regardless of how he started. I'm just tired of having this debate every season. He will prove the same people wrong again.
The thing is, the season starts in August, not the middle of october. he may not score a lot in those first few games, but at least he could look the part. I was at my mate's watching it yesterday and he said how Holt looked like Hartson did around the middle when he played for us. I hated to admit it, but he did have a point.
The guy's a glutton. Its such a shame because if he got himself in shape he'd be in the England squad. Its wasted talent as far as I'm concerned. Why can't he just stop stuffing his face?
The guy is not fat, and if he was thin he'd be crap. That's his game. The stick he's getting is unreal
Come on man, your loyalty to him is blinding you from the obvious. He could fill in as a Rugby Forward in the morning he's that big.
He's getting pelters from all quarters and it's all based around the contract thing. I can't believe people are still hung up about it. He will come good and whatever "lack of form" he has is not because he's out of shape physically or anything to do with any contract situation has existed. He is still our captain and he will provide us with goals.
Big doesn't necessarily mean fat, and nobody said he should be thin. All people are saying is that he doesn't look his best this season, on form or in shape
Beef always respect your opinion but you do come over as not respecting others. I just posted a match report with my opinions. I raised a question about Holt for debate. I am not for one minute suggesting he wont come good but so far this season he has been not firing (and is not alone in that).The guy has been immense for us and very often we look lost when he is not playing. We as a club should always look to improve and that includes getting better than Holt when we can. Just say you disagree with me mate, no need to be disrespectful.
