One of Mark Robinson's best articles on Jack Watts. Sums it up perfectly for me!

I did just attempt to link it, but it moved to premium features. It was strange as I'd read it perfectly fine.

Not sure if allowed, but mods will delete if not I guess....

A surprisingly decent article from Robbo. I got from start to finish without cringing once.

robbo wrote an article while sober - priceless

I'm not buying this. Yes a few supporters have been scathing of watts over the years but most have been incredibly patient. This is evidenced by the joy everyone has in seeing him finally perform. Most demons fans have had reason to be frustrated with him but at the same time have continued waiting for him to come good. So heres cheers to all of us. To Jack for continually trying against a relentless media. The Mfc who has had faith in him. All the supporters like me who have had faith that one day this guy would play the footy he is today.

Thnx for the read Stuie & the heads up Picket, some of Slobos best work for sure.

Tear the tiges up jack, with rance to hoges & astbury to pedo/frost......  Who goes to watts? They'll probably think they can get away with a smaller opponent on him tonight. Could be another big game for killer!!

Some here have been far more 'patient' with Jack than others.

I reckon we got the right bloke at pick 1. Always have. Pity many supporters and the media reached their verdict 1/3 the way into his career.

If, and when, I find the link, I'll read what Slobbo has to say on the subject.

 

Missed the stuie post before nashers edit, I'm assuming it's this article?
