Ollie fan

I really agreed with CHF's summary except that Petty is saying he is going to be a swingman, and I think that is great: he goes wherever he is needed. I agree with this also. We have been very poor on run pasts. I suspect from the training reports that this is being changed; it needed to be.

Everyone says he is reminiscent of Robbie Flower. Robbie was never an "inside mid" (not that that term was used in those days).

I'll tell you why certain posters undermine her and try to cast doubt on her. It's quite simple. They are jealous. GW puts in the hard yards but also - and I have never actually met her - quite clearly has an open, generous nature, and so the players like her and talk to her. Some posters, we all know who they are, don't have those relationships and never will. They also aren't liked on this site. So they backstab, carp, make snide comments, and disparage whatever she says. They don't have her relationships so they don't believe, or pretend not to believe, that she could have them either. It is pure jealousy.

100% agree. Not all good players have to go into the midfield.

You probably forgot the onions. As a veteran of a number of school fetes etc manning the sizzle, you soon learnt that if you want a queue, fry the onions - the smell attracts the punters like....(insert own analogy here)

Ghostwriter, you truly are amazing. People like you, and you in particular, are so important to a club - volunteering for everything, chatting to and supporting the boys, endlessly positive - I tip my hat!

Just listened to the Charlie Spargo interview. I realised I had never heard him speak before, and isn't it funny? - His voice is nothing like I expected it to be. And also, no offence to the bloke, and I hope I'm allowed to say this here, but he looks like a bit of a dope, but gee, he certainly doesn't sound like one! Mature, intelligent, very well-spoken - I am impressed!

And just BTW: this was a terrific, positive thread, full of the best news we have heard all year, until two fools decided to get nasty and wreck it.

Who could be bothered?? You're not that important!!!

Oh, the lack of self-perception here is soooo ironic!

And you are despicable. I've had absolutely enough of the posters who disparage WCW/GW - it is beneath contempt. And moderators: how do you allow this?

Well you would be completely wrong and should STFU.

Now THAT is good news!!

I'm with you on this. I think it would assist his game, and bring a different perspective to leadership. I think he is generally underrated with regard to his strength of character.

We should be able to get to at least 9/zip
