We love a trier, see Tait, Burns Etal. But he was not even that. I
Turbulent times indeed but he is part of the history of this club and here we are today.
A young vibrant team looking upwards
I stand corrected on Talbotx age. I always thought he was a yoingster. But 9 games is hardly enough to gauge his effort levels and certainly nothing justified his treatment on that last hame of his.
I remember people hating Carl tiler too (again not as a kid).
In fairness, its not too many.
Carl Tiler was not only a bad player himself, he also ruined the careers of players around him. I think Scott Hailey was one and he nearly did it to Linvoy, but was injured before he managed it. The criticism of him was fully justified.
