See that’s the fun of a fans forum. If I told you “yes”, you wouldn’t believe it. You would continue to believe what you want to believe. That’s the way it works.

LightDN123 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 13 hours ago, League one forever said: You don’t rumours to watch a player, as our Micky says. I watch with my eyes. His chesterfield performance was unlike anything else. So he either he can only produce one 90 minute performance a season, or he isn’t performing to the best of his ability. But apparently that’s not his responsibility, so I wouldn’t worry he can do what he wants. So are you saying the same about Dallas then ? What about Gardner ? A lot of players had the best game on that day. Did they all give up ? Or was Norwood better because Dallas his strike partner showed up that game ? Just like Norwood looked miles better with Stones next to him ? You just say anything to suit your narrative that Norwood is not good. Go look at his goal scoring stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go look at his goal scoring stats . . and you don’t read what people type because it doesn’t suit your narrative. Never questioned if he’s ‘good’ I’ve also said I am well aware of past achievements- which is what he’s living off. On his day- the best player on the pitch. However his day isn’t frequent enough for a player of his ability. Nor should his performance be solely judged by who is playing with him. IE - is it Norwood fault that Dallas has an awful first touch? Of course not. We’ll never agree- and that’s fine. You think he’s untouchable. I want more from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would continue to believe what you want to believe. That’s the way it works. I think it's one of the problems of social media. People believe stuff to be true based on no evidence other than what they see or often what someone else says they saw, they then write it down on the internet and it spreads as "fact" because when something is written down it suddenly looks more believable. Which then culminates in the sort of disgraceful abuse that Norwood got at Oxford away. For what it's worth with Norwood, what I see is someone who was regularly chasing balls and making runs and berating his teammates for not being better. So I think he tries and he is bothered. But I don't know for sure obviously, so I wouldn't be trying to pass off my opinion as cast iron fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a difference though, there are facts we base your opinions on with football or voting (goals scored, how often out injured, number of children living in poverty). And there are opinions based on stuff other than facts. My issue is when those opinions get passed off as if they are based on facts.

Lukers1 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Former player coming back to be part of the management team. Not sure which position but I’d expect it to be developing the youngsters.
