WTF is Norwood on about here 15:14 - May 7 with 6927 viewsCheltenham_Blue

“It’s very easy for fans to say that about players when they have their own jobs and people are bringing in presents for them, saying it’s sad to see them leave. You see it on Instagram all the time.

“Imagine if the roles were reversed and we turned around and said ‘What are you on about? They’re terrible at their jobs’

Yet another player with an 'us and them' mentality when it comes to the support, it's been one of the major problems at this club since Mick.

Maybe if the players had shown a bit more this year we wouldn't be so keen to bin them off. Own your mistakes FFS.

I think he speaks well. Should do press more often. People should lay off of him. He’s not been the problem.

Seeing as he'll be around next year, let's hope he learns a little maturity and professionalism in the off season. Maybe Cook can instill that in him and his behaviour here was a blip, taking advantage of the lax surroundings and obvious amateurish nature of how we've been run in recent times.

Norwood is getting quite vocal now isn’t he. Trying for the captains arm band for next season....I’m assuming he knows he’s likely to have avoided the cull?

About 350 of those games in non-league of course. His record here isn't great, he's managed 20 goals across two seasons.


Absolute rubbish how many games has he played, and in a poor team. Next season with a changed squad that's the time judge him.

He's played 50 odd games in 2 years because he can't seem to get and stay fit. He's been part of that poor team, it's not like he looks miles better than everyone around him. I'm not sure why Norwood gets a free pass from some.

He's been put up to do media twice in a week, once post-match and then this morning. Not down to the players who speaks to the press.

So he's played 50 times and has scored 20 goals not a bad return.Yes would have been great had he played 90 times in two years wonder what his goal tally would be. Quess that would speculation .

You may well be right, although he said this morning he gave the captaincy to the most senior player, which I think he is from the side that's started in the last couple of games.

It's actually 19 goals in 53 appearances to be precise. Fairly average record really. And the fact he's only managed appearances in 2 years isn't great either.

Not sure why he's being lambasted for getting a couple of injuries in his thirties and people saying it's because he's not kept himself fit.

I've smashed two hamstrings in my life and both where when I was fit as a fidddle, tends to be a problem for us faster people who put a bit of effort in ;-)

Now I just have permanent achilles issues lol!

When your job is to run around. A lot. Not getting injured is not really an option.

Basically what he's saying is that we have a lot of w*nkers and wet blankets within our fanbase that think it's ok to criticise everything that players do as if they have significant moral authority.

He is correct.

It really doesn’t matter what the reasons are and frankly that’s his problem. He’s played half the games and scored roughly 10 goals a season. He’s Centre Forward. It’s not enough and all the reasons in the world cannot change the fact that he’s 30 years old and can’t stay fit.

We need better than a League Two level 10 goals a season (including penalties when he manages to score them) player, if we are to get out of this league and certainly if we ever get anywhere in the one above. With a wing and a prayer he may contribute next year, if he wants to put the effort in. I hope he does.

A couple of injuries? He's missed nearly 50% of the games we've had since he joined. He's a chubber as well. So many excuses made for such a bang average player. Honestly, if anything is a measure of how far we've sunk it's the recent love in for a pub player like Norwood.

Ah interesting . Thanks for that., but I’ve noticed that Luke Chambers hasn’t spoken publicly for the team for some time ....and yes I know he’s not actually played the last 10 or so matches, but I don’t think he was visible in front of the camera post match for months prior to that either.....have you any insight into that at all?

He did it after the Bristol Rovers match and he's not played an awful lot since then.

He’s not wrong, people personally attack him and other players up and down the country based on seeing less than 1% of their life through social media, but talk about them and hurl abuse at them as though they know them personally.

We see then as footballers, and as football fan it absolutely fine to form opinions on them as a footballer, but nobody really these players personally.

I like looking through Twitter and Instagram etc, but I’ve never put out a tweet in my life, lots and lots of arguments on there it seems.

Point and case of the nonsense Norwood is talking about. People talking as if they know, see and live by his side every single day.

Very very odd.
