Port Said Red Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 In the press talk section of the official site, it has a quote from a Sporting Life interview with Albert, in it he says that He and Bolasie shared a nickname at Barnet, but doesn't go on to say what it is. I can't access the Sporting Life site from work so was wondering if anyone here knows what it was\is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted November 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Book ends ( I think) Thank you Give him a chance ffs! And yes I agree, every time I see people dismissing players after a couple of games, I remember how they treated Brian Tinnion in the early part of his career, or how wonderful everyone thought Carl Shutt was after his 1st game etc, you can't jump to conclusions in football based on a couple of appearances.

grifty Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Shame they don't share the same ability I've got a mate who has played football with both of them and he and most clubs they have been at say that Bolasie is the more complete player. Albert also says that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 If our wingers are known as bookends and then i think we should give a similar name to the rovers wingers. I think we should be consistent and begin it with a B and end it in ENDS. I just cant think of anything appropriate though?!? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
