SwallowsHisOwnSpunk 7,993 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Another brilliant ball from Lowry creating a chance out of nothing.

Well Kamara of old could. if that’s Davis, Arfield, Lundstrum, Sands or Jack that’s going straight back to Barisic! I'd just get rid of Lowry, obviously he is shite, has a bad attitude (so someone said) and isn't fit Problem being he probably thinks he has the ability and talent to start games, but, barring his injury, doesn't get the chance, under a boring manager! plymouthranger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember growing up and Durrant was and probably could have been the best player Scotland ever produced. And it is because of that cunt Simpson, no one was near Durrant at that point, and he still came back and was at a better level than most. What a player!

He done that so well, not just scoring but winning penalties, he was ahead of his time, what you would call an attacking midfielder. An excellent player (not ruined) but curtailed by that utter cunt. He cost the Scotland team a guy that would have won 'X' amount of caps, and back then people actually bothered about the national team, not the shit show it is now. ayrshireranger and One Jock Wallace 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross-Gazza genius 2,053 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 All lowry needs to do is watch the Gazza documentary to see how off field antics can ruin you, then watch the Messi documentary to see how a gifted talent focused solely on his career can work out. I'm not saying he'll get anywhere near these levels but young players have tenancy to think they've made it just because of a few 1st team appearances............in actual fact that is where the real hard work starts. ayrshireranger, One Jock Wallace and cstamomusa 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger 9,111 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 It says a lot about how good Durrant was that after that injury he played zero meaningful football at ages 22, 23 and a big chunk of 24, and wasn't really back as an injury free player until he was 25...... Then still went on to have a hall of fame Rangers career. Lowry has potential, if he kicks on I don't see any reason why he couldn't become a first team regular and saleable asset. Durrant however was proving his potential and was well on his way to being a top, top player. Lowry is nowhere near that yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not buying any of this. They are skillful players told to play further up the field.

Popular Post Big Al 55 9,526 Posted November 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2022 You can’t want players to be positive and look forwards all the time then castigate them for giving the ball away.

the cry was no 3,072 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 4 hours ago, The Specky Liar said: Fucking hell that's mental Time will tell Less than two years ago, at the time of the Covid breech in Feb 21, I was laughed at for saying Bassey was "potentially" our biggest asset and should be playing ahead of Borna and that Patterson was "potentially" worth millions (many wanted to show them both the door) This time last year the out of form Borna was still playing and Bassey had played limited football. Injuries gave him his chance and he never looked back. When he turned 21 Bassey had played 12 senior games (9 starts) He had pace, strength, power and decent skills but most of all he had a great attitude and determination to be the best he could be. Lowry has outstanding natural ability and skills, he'll never have Bassey's physical attributes but that's not his game. If he has Bassey's attitude he has the world at his feet Personally I see a fair bit of a young Durrant in him, including the gallus style and natural ability Whether he fulfils his potential is largely down to him and partly down to Gio (or another manager) giving him a stage That's my view, you might think it's mental but I couldn't care less Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s always made out that we have all these things first team ready youngsters who are being held back by the manager and it’s always “the next man will give more youth a chance” but realistically it hardly ever happens.
