What were you thinking Liam?
It was truely unacceptable apologies. Ive become emotionally deranged with this paronoid fear of losing Grealish to the Brits it dominates my life. The last time i suffered such turmoil was when i feared bernie Slaven would be poached at the last moment by those scheming scots! I promise I wont post sober again. promise.Quote:

Will Grealish break James McCarthy's record of thread pages length before his competitive debut?
fan report on Grealish's progress on loan at Notts County: http://www.myoldmansaid.com/jack-gre...y-loan-report/
have to say, I admire the honesty of his opinion on loan players, and references to previous loanees
Honest indeed but it ignores the fact that he's only 18! He's learning the ropes at Notts Co.
Scored a late goal in Notts County's 3-1 win today
Grealish silences his critics... ;)Quote:

The Aston Villa loanee's wonderful solo effort, beating three Gills defenders on the way to his powerful finish into the roof of the net, was his first Football League goal.
video of the goal here:
the man he celebrates with after scoring is his dad!

Over the moon, so happy. One of the best goals I've ever scored aswell which makes it better and celebrated it with my dad in the crowd❤
That was a fabulous goal from start to finish, he's selling more dummys than Mothercare
Maybe a turning pointy in Countoes season.
I think you can here as fan say "that is class", have to agree.

Free-scoring Championship and Irish eligible striker Lukas Juktwiecz was utterly brutal on loan at Huddersfield from Everton, for instance. There's a ton of examples!
Man Utd's Danny Drinkwater was wonderful at Huddersfield but he's an average Championship player now after leaving United.
Drinkwater? that's one weird surname. Just how did that one stick?
I actually looked this up before. The most likely explanation is that in medieval times (and even up until relatively recently), the general quality of water was so low that most people had to drink weak ale instead, which having been brewed was likely to be safe to drink. As a result, a person who drank water would be considered high status and it was certainly unusual enough for it to become a familiar name.Quote:

Well perhaps he is Pete, perhaps he is ;)
Tricky what are you asking for for Xmas?
A world class Irish player with a drink problem :)Quote:

How come it's not spelled "Knotts County?"

Because it's short for Nottinghamshire, which doesn't begin with a K.Quote:

I don't know whether the opposition are terrible or whether he just makes them look terrible, in the few clips
I have seen of him he makes them look like a pub side (after a good few pints), they seem to be falling over left right
and center without him doing anything!
The clips I have seen in recent weeks also seem to suggest he is a good player. Granted it is the 3rd division, but many good players have developed by playing at that level over the years.
Compares very favourably so far with Connor Cliffords unproductive loan at the same club a couple of seasons back, as a guide to how these loans can go for young prospects.Quote:

Dat pass from Grealish for the last goal!
That notts county supporter who wrote in his blog how much better Ince was on loan than Grealish really is stuck in that english understanding of football. Course he loved Ince cause he was fast, strong, direct, took on the full back and crossed or shot at every opportunity just as he does always for Blackpool maybe a slower version of Townsend. Grealish is nothing like either of those two wingers thankfully he is a playmaker who will be at ease in the premier league and at senior level for us. But good god he needs a strenght and conditioning coach.cant remember many players as scranny as him. Jordan graham meanwhile from villa and at loan at ipswich is the player that notts fan would appreciate fast, direct, crosses everything and a few tricks a proper english winger
Soccer announcers are so funny. During the Liverpool game before the guy said "Liverpool are.....asking some questions right now." what the hell does that even mean.
I wouldn't be too worried about that yet. He's only just turned 18, so still has about 3-4 years of growing left to do. Work on his ability, strength and conditioning will come in time.Quote:

It means they're posing problems that Spurs have to find answers for. Seems fairly intuitive.Quote:

Well, he is slight definitely but you could also argue to leave well alone as if he is impacting at that level of football, which is a fairly rough & tumble one at that end of that division, he is doing fine. At this point anyway. I know what you mean though, he looks like a kid among men in the clips.Quote:
