I seem to have been told by quite a few... 17:07 - Dec 11 with 5324 viewsOriginalMarkyP

...luminaries on here that Norwood was a waste of space, would never play for the club again and I was mad for repeatedly saying he should play, and is the best striker we have.

Not saying I told you so.

But...

He takes up about as much space as two regular professional footballers, so in that sense he's a waste of space as you could use the space he occupies to have two actual footballers.

I think you'll find it wasn't what you was saying that got you flak, it was the frequency which you was saying it that was - and 3 "i told you so" posts and counting backs that flack up.

I find the painting of Norwood as our saviour after one goal somewhat more desperate. For me he's a symbol of our decline and failure as a club in recent years. If he goes on to score a shed load of goals and fires us to the top 6 I'll happily stand corrected.

but we'd rather have a norwood than a baron bonne right?

If we're to get rid of a manager due to results, surely that goes for players. Norwood has shown since he's been here, he's the best option upfront on the pitch

i don't like the person, but I respect the player

If he scores another 10 then we can talk.


If he can stay fit, get in with his job and make something of his talent, we can talk even more.

Norwood is our third choice striker, and rightly so.

We don't know who made that decision, but it won't be based on the on field performances

IF norwood didn't have the off field backround, i'd want him starting every week, he's strong, horrible and can score. Yes he misses some, but who doesn't, but the off field stuff is the only reason I don't like him

Also it is worth pointing out he's been bouncing between injured and fit for a couple of seasons. Very easy to fall down a pecking order if you're showing signs of being injury prone.

Pigott got 20 goals at this level last season, Bonne has scored goals at this level and the level above and has as many goals after 20 games for us as Norwood has ever managed for us in a season. That's why Norwood is third choice behind those two, it's based entirely on their on field performances.

I like pigott, but he got 9 goals the season before, so we can't just base it on last season,
Bonne, he's showing why there's a bit of doubt about him as a striker, started strong, has gone missing.

Again if we sack a manager based on results, that same judgement as to be shown with players. Weve given Bonne plenty of games lately to no effect and Pigott soon has so show he's got something, otherwise there's no reason on the field why Norwood is a 3rd choice striker.

And of course he is a massive bellend with 2 drink drive convictions, so also a cunit.

That’s why I don’t want him playing for us.

He is unfit and injury prone too.

That doesn't really address my point. If we're using a sample size of one game then yes, Norwood is our clear number one. But only an idiot would use a sample size of one game, indeed your post suggests we shouldn't even use one whole season as evidence of who is the better striker.

can't get my head round why 9 goals is such a poor season in comparison to norwood, when he get c11 the same year with a much better side?

Makin has described him as our best striker. After his first goal of the season, coming in our 22nd league game.

I think tbh you're taking it further than it needs to be

He was indeed our 3rd choice striker

Our first choice has been struggling recently
our 2nd choice hasn't taken his opportunties, as brief as they have been

our 3rd choice as must as we may not like the person, has a very good goal to game time ratio, so purely on on pitch relevence, there's no reason why Norwood should be excluded. As I say i don't like the person he appears to be, but im going purely on football matters.
