    Barclays have been showcasing walking football in their latest adverts, perhaps Astrit can be an ambassador for the sport?

    He would have to significantly speed up.

    Apparently Leon Best was at the game tonight. Not sure if he joined anyone after being released by Blackburn.

    Weird that one because I saw a bloke I recognised but didn't know from where, now i realise it was Leon best

    not sure he's upto scratch to be honest, more of a physical hold up CF which is not needed with Makienok
  • Don't see Luzon taking anyone that's not been either scouted or training with us.

    Really? I thought I spotted Jon Fortune, who has connections with both clubs - they are not too dissimilar.


  • AA is a 10 not a CM so comparisons with Jacko are pointless, AA was one of the most technically gifted players we have had in the last 10 seasons and I would not mind him back


    Most technically gifted! You have to be joking.

    What type of player did you see him as? He had a good touch, was comfortable on the ball, a decent shot from long range and could pick a pass.
    Yes, that defines technically gifted.

    Who would you say has been more technically gifted in the last ten years? Genuinely interested, your shock seems to imply you can think of loads and loads. There's Andy Reid, Jerome Thomas if you're feeling generous and Darren Ambrose if you're feeling like a debate but other than that I'm struggling
  • Brad Jones - ex Liverpool and Boro keeper - training with us, according to a (probably) spotty teenager on Facebook. Still, it's a rumour.
  • Add Murphy to that list.

    Definitely. Left in 2004 though. I think that's what Scoham was getting at; we had some quality when we were an established Prem team but since then we've had workmanlike players and cloggers. AA was a nice change when he wasn't on his fag break

    Those two are a given but from the comment the last few years I think NLA was implying post Premier League Years and saying that since players of that calibre AA is one of the most technically gifted we have had.

    Reid
    Todarov
    Buyens
    Kermorgant
    Poyet
    Gomez
    Ambrose

    Off the top of my head.

    AA was ok, nothing more, when on the ball, terrible when off it.
    Don't think off the ball comes into technical ability though, and technical ability is what's got AA through the game. Also, Todorov? Don't remember him ever showing much in the way of exceptional technical ability, but then it's not like he had much of a chance to show it

    Watch toddy glide past the palace defenders at Selhurst.

    Very gifted player.
  • Todorov, the difference between bouncing back into the big time and slipping into league 1 IMO
  • Todorov had obvious class on the ball but was clearly not very mobile or particularly strong. Needed a nippy striker next to him and all we had in that regard was izale mcloud.
  • Since the first season after we got relegated aa had bags more technical ability I meant, he was a shining light in some seriously dull times

    Claus Jensen liked his fag breaks too.
  • Remind me what the rumour is or was.

    Remember when we were linked with Sarr/Bauer/Makinenok/Bergdich/Ceballos/Ba/Kashi and then signed them? Just reminding you

    Fortune was there, as was Leon Best.

    Without this becoming a who's who of random footballer's in attendance - I am sure that Leon Best was sat with Fitz Hall. A quick google would suggest he has as good as retired so maybe they're mates with someone playing and were simply there to watch?
  • was it Leon best who turned us down a few years ago because he didn't want to move his young family from Lancashire?

    Best and Hall would have been mates from their Newcastle spell I would guess. Best will rarely be down in London if he lives in Lancashire with his family, and cant see him travelling all the way down to London for Charlton v Dagenham for any other reason other than he is meeting with the club.

    Maybe took the time to catch up with an old London based friend?
