The difference between him and Charlie Adam was on display last night. Crouch is one of those players that people seem to have respect for, always gave 100% for England, at least we didn't see the robot last night! and Charlie Adam is scottish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsquirrel Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 i thought crouch did well last night. didnt bother us in the slightest and charlie adams entertained much more,even it was only making himself look a complete tit every time he tried anything. if that stoke team totalled £100m, bristol city starting 11 are worth double that amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Exiled Robin Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Bit of respect for a very good career, someone who's always tried hard for England and plays with a smile. He also shook hands with Flint and applauded him for playing so well against him which shows the touch of class he has. Used to be a lot more applauding 'good pros' quite a few years ago before people got so angry about everything in life on forums and Twitter! The contrast between him & Charlie Adam was stark in every way last night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just acknowledging a good pro, who's had a really good career I reckon. It reminded me of this last night too. That was Dublin's last season and he walked all the way around to the Atyeo tunnel. I normally give dogs abuse to any opposition player but joined in that night as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben4BCFC Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 I may be wrong but I thought it was for Crouch at first then noticed Bobby Reid taking off his bench attire and preparing himself to get ready and chatting to JMc about his role on pitch. I was under the impression that the applause was for him, and then within a minute he was ready to come on. May be wrong of course but a few around me noticed Bobby getting ready and were applauding him, not Crouch. Me included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 I didn't clap him as I too remembered the blatant handball v Pompey in the cup. He did win a few headers against Flint though but nothing we couldn't overcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Thought he deserved it for the way he has handled himself (stop it) through the years. nice guy, and like somene said, played with a smile and seems to appreciate his good fortune to be a footy player. Unlike far too many. Well done PC, I clapped Was in a good mood funnily enough, last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear that he's a top bloke as well as a top player, so a round of applause for such bloke is fair enough. I'd imagine it would have been different if we were losing and he'd scored against us. Not quite enough respect to stop most of us knocking one out over a picture of his Mrs though..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His goal against Man City a few years ago was absolutely class. 20 odd goals in 40 odd games for England wasn't it? Top bloke. More than quite decent imho. Always looked good in any team he played for at any level, his technique stood up well. A genuinely nice bloke by what we've seen of him. I clapped him too.

Spot on - debatable whether he was better with his feet or head - and a clever player too Very underestimated / appreciated IMHO One of the highest if not the highest goal per minute ratio for England oh , and Mrs Crouch is 'sex on a stick' too !

adamski Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 I never realised he was playing until he came off(missed team sheet). Flint had him in his pocket all night, only saw him when he climbed out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamkiller Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 2 hours ago, Flint says No said: I thought he said a virgin but still as funny either way! He did say 'virgin'. We all love Crouchie. We don't understand how he's still our most likely goalscorer - but the fact is that despite spending squillions, he's still there. Nice that people gave him a decent ovation. There's enough unnecessary hatred in football and life in general, so I'm sure he appreciated it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoons Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 The biggest applause a opposition player as ever had was when lomana lua lua ran the show for Colchester against us on a Tuesday night game many years ago!!
