Those at Uddersfield at the weekend can you comment please? Gurney's brief stints in midfield under King weren't that impressive, has Iffy got it right? Quote One to watch A DISAPPOINTING performance from Town on Saturday but by no means the end of the world with three key players absent. I think the player we are crying out for most was playing for Swindon. That's Andy Gurney, who scored the penalty. He ran everything in midfield and in my opinion would be ideal for us. He sat just in front of the back four, won the ball and played it simple. He's on loan from Swansea and if funds become available for Mr Jackson in January then I think he'd be someone to consider. Jack Dalton Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Kinky Tom on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:03:49 He's looked much better in midfiled under Iffy than at any point with King. Still a bit gobby etc. but a vast improvement.
Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:06:19 The missing link?
No pun intended. Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Kinky Tom on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:10:13 I think his name will be one of the first on the teamsheet until he goes, if he does, can't see Swansea needing him really.
When he plays it simple he is the player we've been missing, when he tries the 'hollywood' balls we copuld do without, but I think he's learning that himself now, would you believe. :shock: Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Panda Paws on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:15:36 He's got better with fitness, IMO. When he has his first start back from Swans I thought he was awful - but on Saturday he seemed to have a little bit more confidence about him, and thankfully some legs. I have to admit, when I first saw the team, I thought Iffy was going to play a five-man defence, but didn't turn out that way.
I think the thing that still winds me up about him is his rashness - he goes in and doesn't think about the consequences, even if he's hanging on with a yellow card and a last warning from the ref. As long as he keeps a lid on his temper, though ... I hope he's back to his Leeds/Elland Road best.

Fucking great night which was ruined by that cunt Robinson!, still wont ever forget going absolutely mental when Parkin scored. :beers: Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Bob's Orange on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:30:30 Were you one of the ones that went on the pitch spuddy?

That night made me realise that Leeds had the gayest stewards ever, if you stood up to get money out your pocket it would be "can you sit down please?". :evil: Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:40:29 He's improved considerably since King left, I have to admit...
Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: adje on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 19:53:42 I hate the bloke-always have always will.If he never plays for Town again,I will shed no tears

Was utterly fucked off after until some fella in the crowd - rightly - pointed out that they'd done brilliantly to hold Leeds and we should praise them for that. One of the best things anyone ever said to me at footy.

Fucking pathetic! Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 09:40:30 Pound a pint is wednesday and friday here :beers:
Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: walrus on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 10:07:40 I stand by comments the pissed me said.
Alas it wasn't pound a pint, but a large can of Strongbow Super is only a pint..... :beers: *Mega Death this mornign...* Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 10:09:32 Strongbow Super - now we're talking. Offy round the corner does 8 for £5 :D
I think I am an alcoholic Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: McLovin on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 10:11:58 Strongbow Super is actually tasty.
Gurney - vast improvement, shouldn't get near free kicks still. He's living off the Leeds one, a la Ruddock against Chesterfield(?) Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: mattboyslim on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 10:15:37 Southend wasn't it?
Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: DV on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 12:08:34 much improved now he knows he isnt automatic choice and he has to play for his place.

That or all Leeds stewards have been sent to gay school. Also funny was keeping the ball and Bridges get a bit miffed we wouldn't give it back. Smith was laughing at him though. Back OT. Gurney is too good to leave out of our first 11 compared to what else is available. I still prefer him at the back though. Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: adje on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 17:32:54 I pwefer him back at fucking Swansea
Title: Gurney turns heads Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, November 3, 2005, 17:37:08 I think he can bring something to the side but doesn't always, and his gob is a problem.
No complaints with him playing though |
