I know that I always bring this up, and I make no apologies for it. I think you have to remember where he was a year ago also, so far out of favour it was unreal. Smith quite publicly challenged him to improve areas of his game and he has done. He could quite easily when left out have thrown his toys, forced himself a move and that would have been that, but he chose to work hard and we're certainly seeing the benefits of this.

Just shows how impiortant attitude is, a year ago you'd never have imagined so much positivity about Myler, and genuine praise for his all round game, similarly, you wouldn't have thought Eastmond would have been marginalised, and there be some much negativity about he. In twelve months, the fortunes of both have shifted hugely.

He's crap. He'll never be nothing more than a support player.

Yeh, and that fullback bloke who has been playing this year, Hodson or someting, all he can do is kick goals.

Yeah, and him, he's crap an' all. He's too light and not big enough & not to mention his age. I reckon we should get rid as soon as poss, give one of the young lads a go. This Helliwell fella sounds a gooden.

Still a one man team, always have been, always will be. God forbid the day when Sir Lee Briers retires!

Re: Richie Myler : Mon Jul 18, 2011 8:28 pm  

What's our record in the past 15 games when Briers hasn't played.

We lost them all you idiot!

Brier's is overrated.

Knew we should of packed him off to Barrow when we had the chance.

Since the start of 2010, we've been without him for 14 games, the stats read:

2010: Won 8/10

2011: Won 3/4

But remember, we're a one man team.

The stats for 2008 & 2009 would be useful just to compare against these.
