    What about the pass to Grigg that set up Mandy's fabulous pass to Markanday? We'll have to agree to differ. A couple of weeks ago, he made a sublime first time pass along the line to Gordon who had burst forrad in front of him. Imo, Berry is a very good passer of the ball.

    I'd agree with that generally; I was just saying that particular pass to Drummond was relatively straightforward. I always bear in mind the fact that nothing is as easy as it looks from a seat in the stand - that's why I never berate players for making a genuine mistake.

    The fans frustration with Berry was perfectly understandable, though I personally would never audibly abuse one of our own players. When he came on he just ambled around while his teammates were making every effort to close opposition players down. I also think some if the comments about his assist for Drummond are way over the top; the ball was gifted to him by a poor opposition pass, nobody closed him down, and he just had to roll it about six yards to Drummond - no comparison whatsoever with Danny Whitaker cutting defences open with accurate and precisely weighted 20/30 yard passes. Berry does have that fantastic ability to produce a burst of pace to go past a defender and sm.ack a 25-yarder into the top corner, but his overall game and consistency of performance has a long way to go.

    Morsy was the best I have seen at receiving the ball and keeping possession. From MOTD, he still looks excellent at the skill.
    There is a few degrees separation from him to some we and others have this level though.

    Agreed, when he receives the ball he's so strong that he can shield it and hold any opponent off. Shame he isn't in our midfield.

    In agreement and also know of folk not bothering with BB anymore due to "childish idiots"
    Of the 3 main protagonists 2 appear that they think they are are clever making comments they don't necessarily agree with themselves but do so 'cos they think/know it will antagonise folk, there must be a medical term for it. The consensus is that the other protagonist is just plain THICK.

    They're ruining the credibility of this board and temporary bans should be permanent.

    I agree that the posters in question have personal issues that could be medical or psychological. For that reason, they don't really bother me because they should be pitied rather than reviled. What actually annoys me far more is the fact that others continue to reply to their posts. This, of course, feeds their ego/affliction, and it continues. I've posted this before, but I'll try again , and excuse me, but I really feel the need to shout :- IF NOBODY EVER REPLIES TO THEIR OPENING POSTS THEY WILL JUST FADE AWAY INTO INSIGNIFICANCE. To my mind, those who grace their opening posts with a reply are every bit as culpable as the original posters. JUST IGNORE THEM.
