Talking of bad discipline at the club, would it be fair to say this guy has never been accused of being an outstanding influence in the dressing room at any point in his career. I’m thinking West Ham, Sunderland, QPR.

Examples of the above please? Can't say I followed his career until he came to Southend United.

Also keen to hear of any alleged stories from Reading or Bursaspor.
 
You don't want to hear what happened at Bursaspor! .. Disgraceful! :smile::winking:

Good point.

I really think our next signing should be a Gripper Stebson type character.
 
Do we really need to be stirring up more rumours surrounding a player who is struggling for form?
 
Indeed.

I think this is why we've gone down the comedy route.
 
I'm not aware of Anton being anything other the a real good pro- his issues about fitness have nothing to do with work ethic or not looking after himself. He was great last season- various knocks this year and he seems to be at a point where it might take longer to recover.

Are we lining him up as the next person who needs sacking? I think we need a complete reset now- clean slates for all players- CP to pick his team and formation based on what he sees on the training ground and the pitch from this point forward.

KM will understand the above- the fans were trying to get him sacked for some time until he turned out to be one of the best CM we have had.
 
Who? :stunned: Is this a story that starts: ‘during the war...’?

For shame 'spaceman'.

The legend of Stebson is well known amongst those who were brought up on late 70's children's TV.

On a serious note, when I saw the thread title, I thought he'd either left or was the new manager!

I went to almost every game when Maher was getting abuse and in my opinion Maher never helped himself by never seeming to try very hard. To his credit he turned it around but it wasnt a case of him being picked on for no reason.

Maher to me was a bit like Bobby Moore in his day, Ok nowhere near as good, but Bobby passed sideways most of the time and was safe the same as Maher....They both went forward when there was space....I doubt Bobby ever scored 2 such spectacular goals as Kev did against QPR at home a few years back....I think we won 4-1 but i forget the year.
 
5-0 that was. 9th February 2007.

Comparing him to Bobby Moore, I'm not so sure. They played in different positions.
 
I couldn't find it on youtube, although the match was live on the TV.

I was born in 1978, so I can’t say I was paying a great deal of attention to the TV in the late ‘70s, even when I was actually looking at it! :smile:
