re: cambgulls comment

I know it's very sad but I do scour a lot of other clubs' forums and have to say that I think ours is the worst for bickering and slagging off our own players by a mile .

what does that tell me ? we are a passionate bunch

ffs chunkygull..... let's move on.....same old drivel. have you got a personal issue against oastler ? best thing you can do is go and buy your tufc shirt with tonge on the back, make up a song for him and go lick his a*sehole

apologies to cpgull..... the above post was directed at chunkygull

cpgull if you say so then it's got to be right........ :} :} :} :} :}

cp gull, i have read on here over the season that some posters think that leadbitter isn't getting picked because he has some kind of attitude problem ( even before the shirt sponsors event ) and that for some reason managers don't like him. this is because they can't think of another reason why ostler has got in the team ahead of him. if it isn't an attitude problem which, as i said earlier, that i personally don't think it is, it must be that ling and knill think ostler is the better player. also ling actually brought leadbitter in.
as for being responsible for goals, i wish i had the time to analyse the season and having been to EVERY game i would put a bet on ostler not being top of the guilty list. also i would like to point out that there have been many occasions that ostler has put in last ditch tackles, clearances etc which have prevented goals.
the last 3 games IMO he has played really well keeping davids and ellison quiet and defended well gainst bristol.
there are divided opinions about ostler which of course everyone is entitled too but i do think some are too harsh . i also think nicho has had some unjustifiable criticism and finished the season on a good note.

anyway let's see what happens with contracts over the next few weeks. let the experts make the decisions eh

re: joe ostler
i think joe had a really good start and a really good end to the season with an average middle and a only a couple of poor games. i certainly don't agree with the overly negative comments on here. buckle brought him here, ling played him all last season and knill obviously likes him too. i am sure they are better qualified than some of the ostler bashers on here to make judgements. as for leadbitter's supposed " bad attitude "..... that is a ridiculous statement. having spoken to him on several occasions he seems to have a very good attitude. yes he has pace but that's it.
those who have heavily criticised ostler on here obviously just don't like him and cannot see potential. he's only 22 ( i think ) and deserves more credit than given.
anyway i've said my bit..... off to work to save up for my renew season ticket COYY

totally agree with brucie about the harsh comments.....i was beginning to wonder if i was at a different game !!! i thought each and everyone of the lads battled ( especially the back four.... and yes i am including nicholson and oastler) and had their hearts on their sleeves. a good win, some good play and could've scored more with better finishing. well done lads
