    Sorry, not that AT but 'another AT' ie Armond Traore!

    I like the way that he 'talked the talk' a couple of weeks back and now he has backed that up with a goal. Further more that was not an easy strike at all. First he had to have the split second awareness that the defender had screwed up and then he used his pace to get to the ball before the defender (? Smith). Finally, he had to compose himself for the shot while off balance and hit it very awkwardly with his left foot.

    Really good to see. More please.

    Yes. Plenty of potential but application to date has been questionable. Hopefully is waking up to the fact that time is running out for him to establish himself.

    When is his contract up? Hope this isn't what is behind his fighting talk recently.

    If that is the motivation he needs, so be it. No complaints form me if he puts a few more like that away? Has he ever scored for us before??

    He had to take a long time to get it onto his left foot.

    He's better at left wing rather than left back.

    And I do appreciate that he might not have scored with his right but he did it so credit where it is due.

    No he has not scored for us before, but he has done this...

    Roller, don't start me on that again. I was just commenting to my son only today over lunch that I so wish we had won or drawn that game. What ever heights we may or may not eventually reach, we would have been written into football history as the minnows that denied the £0.5 billion team their first title in over 40 years!! Oh well.

    Seriously Stroller mate, you can't complain when people question yours and Flyer's motives when you come out with comments like that.
    I stand by what I said on the match-day thread regarding the both of you. You're both depressed because we won!

    BTW, that Man City game still haunts me to this day. I'll never get over how we threw that one away.

    C'mon, the only comments you've made since our victory yesterday have been either negative or begrudging.

    Honestly mate, you can't wonder why some people would question yours and Flyer's enthusiasm for this team can you? You both hate Redknapp so much you don't even sound like you're happy when we've put in a bloody good performance and won a very tough game.

    For ****'s sake Swords. I've supported our club for 50 ****ing years. Do you really think I would be unhappy about our winning?

    Well if this is you happy: "He had to take a long time to get it onto his left foot", God help us when you're pissed off!

    Well, in another thread, I raised my doubts about Traore, based on his being too one-footed. Even in scoring the goal, he looked awkward.

    Its not that Stroller. You've not made one single positive comment since the game yesterday. A match which was hugely important for us and we won it, convincingly.

    That to me is odd, no matter what way you dress it up.

    Oh dear Stroller, you're in Swords' little black book. Watch out for a knock on the door at the dead of night...<yikes>

    Really can't agree with this. He is very one-footed, but even my lad pointed out that it was a very clever finish whilst running at pace. The bloke can't win with some people.
