ciderup Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 You ripped off our club You ripped off our clu-u-ub You fat lazy bas***d You ripped off our club Definite Stern John goal then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindjuicer Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Much underrated player, Stern John. As I've said before, we looked most like scoring last season when he was paired with Maynard. I don't judge a player by how quickly they jog off when substituted. You don't say the same thing about Hartley, do you? Conserving one's energy isn't such a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lack of Action Man Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Maybe we should change the half time game to shooting the ball into a ginormous pie, that should get his shooting and work rate up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For many people, a good player is one that simply runs around a lot. John was experienced and intelligent enough to pick out the right positions rather than running around like a headless chicken for 90 mins.

Nibor Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Stern John had a decent touch and vision but was brought here to score goals on the back of one good season and reverted to his normal contribution of very little which wasn't enough. He was a bad signing because we signed him looking for a goalscorer and that's something he isn't really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a bad signing because we signed him looking for a goalscorer and that's something he isn't really. Indeed had a bad patch with us which could spurr him on even more to perform well against us a curse in the making but I'm hopeful of a decent result today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim S Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Despite all, you cant deny SJ has talent. So did Bas Savage..... Bas was very talented and full of skill - but he just never managed to use it when it mattered, ie - on the pitch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mindjuicer Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Maynard seems to be doing better without him. Because Maynard has got better - tho he's scoring nearly all his goals from 30+ yards out. Stern John seemed to be the only partner Maynard's had who was on his wavelength. He wasn't a bad target man either. I think Haynes is better and Saborio will be eventually. Think we'd struggle to fit SJ, Maynard and Haynes in the same team so no great loss on letting him go. And didn't we loan Velicka to replace him? So it probably isn't SJ's fault he doesn't play for us any more. I didn't like the abuse he got last season and so I feel inclined to stick up for him this season too. Just hope he doesn't play too well today.

Nogbad the Bad Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Just hope he doesn't play too well today. Stern John was rubbish for City - no doubt about that at all - but I do concur with your last bit, he must be capable of the occasional effective game so let's hope it's not today.
