Was just outclassed and out bossed in the centre of midfield. Tried too hard, tried running around every blade of grass leaving gaping holes where he should have been which was exploited by Celtic in particular. Was told and told what to do, where to be, how he was meant to play and couldn't do it. Basically a headless chicken. The manager is Stephen Glass (former NUFC player) and he wanted him to succeed. When it became obvious he couldn't follow basic instruction he was dropped and never got another look in.
See what happens vs Watford. A win will change everything..
We'll be out the bottom 3 and maybe other players might sign..
Can this team beat Watford?. Hopefully
Broony would batter Keano. Facts
He's one player I would never want to piss off (Brown). Not as nasty as his image and a decent bloke by all accounts but he was an absolute rock in that midfield. Not bad at winding the opposition up either - especially if your name was El Hadji Diouf

Yeah onfield he's a twat (unless you like Celtic) but he's actually a really good guy
I moved up there in the early 80s and I supported Aberdeen. Not out of any strong connection, but I moved to the west coast of Scotland and the first question I was asked at school was whether I was Protestant or Catholic. When I said Protestant I was told I supported Rangers then. I thought **** that and picked the north east team instead. I didn't know anything about them but it turned out to be a decent shout back then as it was just before they won the cup winners cup
He's gobby mate, likes to sound like a hard man, put a few dirty tackles in during his time but tell me who he actually threw fists with to earn this reputation. If him and Carra actually went at it I'd back Carra to knock him the **** out in seconds. It's quite funny watching him in Sky studio's because Neville worships him like a hero and Carra and Souness just look at him like he's pathetic.

So you support a red side managed by Ferguson? You sicken me
When he told his mates that he was going to support Aberdeen the response would have been "Gonnae no"
Ferguson hadn't been tainted by the mancs yet and he cut his managerial teeth managing the black and whites!
Aye he tries too hard, had a similar discussion with a mate earlier that him and Souness try too hard, gurning at the camera, telling everyone they'd smash such and such. Pipe down lads. I'd love to see big Dunc vs Souness and Keane in a 1 on 2
What's your connection with Scotland. Did I see somewhere that you're a Celtic fan?
Dunc - is an absolute maniac mate. The stories I've heard involving him are mint. I actually fear what may happen to Rafa in a few weeks time
If that's to me then I am Scottish, just moved back down here after 15 years back up in Dundee.
It was to Ben10. I guessed you were Scottish!! I moved up there when I was 12 and lived there for 15 years. Only been to Dundee a few times. Spent a few nights in Angels if its still there - a nightclub in an old church, and another nightclub that had a hamburger bar in it (thats all I remember).
