At first I thought he was getting pelters because he was playing regularly but wasn't one of our glamour signings (Joey, Niko etc) but it seems it's gone to a personal level towards Andy. He doesn't big himself up. He doesn't say he's going to be amazing and fail spectacularly (unlike some). He just gets his head down and gets on with his game. Yes he often speak of his love for Rangers, largely because he's asked out it constantly. And I think he's a pretty solid midfielder in to the bargain. Yes it could be a jealousy thing. I do remember the pelters Ferguson got/still gets. Whatever the reason is I wish people would just wind their necks in and rate him on how he performs on the park.

Bit harsh to single out Halliday when he's probably been our most consistent midfielder so far this season. I still can't get my head around the seeth towards Halliday on here from some folk. Halliday has either slept with @THE_MIGHTY_BEARS's missus or bullied him at school. His insistence on digging him out is almost unhealthy. I had a similar debate with him a few weeks ago; he singled-out Halliday's performance against Celtic at Parkhead and I struggled to fathom how on earth someone, anyone, could watch that match and target Halliday, looking beyond Barton, Kranjcar, Senderos, Kiernan, etc. Frightening.

I simply pointed out that he played during the last Old Firm game. He got a full 45mins and done nothing. Am I wrong? Did he have a smashing game?

We controlled first 15 mins of second half got caught with a sucker punch and then went down to 10. Hard to judge him on that Since he contributed nothing that day I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that was a shite performance. I appreciate you giving it a bit of spin and trying to turn a poor performance in to a bad one but I'm not buying it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even worth responding to, so I'll refer you to my original point; you're over-looking not simply worse, but abysmal, performances to highlight him. I think the amount of times you've had to defend your opinion on this subject emphasises it's lack of credibility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It amazes me how many people have conned themselves in to believing he wasn't on the pitch at all. There's a difference between coming on into a game and being in the game from the start. If he's coming in halfway through, where Celtic have had free reign and are on a high horse in the midfield no amount of bravado or confidence will change that. Barton, Niko and Windass didn't have control of the midfield. Midfield control HAS to be established in the opening minutes of the game, a marker of dominance placed down. if it's not established there then it won't be regained. Halliday was coming into a game where we were 2-1 down and soon enough 3-1 down. Celtic would've been on a high and breaking that down isn't easy. This will come across as "Bartons fault case #19123" but it really is, he's the holding mid and should be controlling the midfield offering support, getting the ball back and generally being a cunt. Halliday did and still does all 3 of those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough fucking shit, you've posted you're opinion and so it should rightfully be criticized cause it's fucking stupid. Coming on as a sub into a losing game where midfield control is already established is a completely different thing than starting a game. Doesn't matter who you are, shit is going to be tough. Especially when it's an away game in a crowd of 60,000 shouting dogs abuse at you and because of lack of midfield control nothing can be done about it. Waghorn and Forrester also played, they got about 4 touches between them. Know why? Because there was NO midfield control. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
