Jack Dawe Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Some great comments from Marlon after Saturday in The Post: "To score a goal in front of all those away fans in a game of this magnitude was an amazing feeling" "There was so much emotion in the game, the fans were so loud and gave us such fantastic backing that I had goose-bumps at the end" And on the club website: "To score in front of all that travelling support was incredible for me" "Tommo's goal at the end, in front of all those supporters, and the roar at the final whistle - there were goose-bumps" "It was an emotional game and one we'll certainly remember" Clearly, Marlon got a buzz out of scoring and winning Saturday, and our response. Here is someone loving the upside of playing here, in the Championship, at big grounds and before big crowds. He's not just here for the money, he's loving the thrill of it. Good for him. And what a fine goal, too. From outside the box! How many of those have we managed? He loved the reaction so much, he'll be shooting from everywhere now. This isn't an appraisal of Marlon's ability at this level or our midfield, or poking a finger at those who have questioned both this season, it's just to say great goal and great comments. And just a reminder, Marlon, to mention our truly spectacular fanbase more often (cough). He deserves our support and some big love. Pity his name doesn't fit into any songs very easily - we should try though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I don't think any of the contracted players are here for the money. Even the loanees want to play. Poor old Pearce hasn't had much chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it goes to the tune of a Rihanna song which may explain why it didn't really catch on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selred Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 What ever happened to Marlon Pack... In the middle of midfield, in the tune of Our House by Maddness. Thought that was his song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'm sure I've heard Flinty yell that many a time after a corner routine breaks down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 We've been trying out "We fell in love with Marlon Pack" (Rihanna tune) for a while now in Section 82. It's certainly growing, considering the amount of times I heard it round London on Saturday night. Oh, and us who made it up are certainly not "young uns", I can tell thee!!

Twas born aboard the Roger Wilkins Cider Bus in December. Not a great fan of the chant. I think we can do better! As for Marlon, top class. I wasn't ever a fan of his but fair play, he's been one of our most consistent players for the majority of the campaign! He's certainly stepped up.

'Orns Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Finally caught up with the highlights and watched the interviews with Pack, Tomlin, Odemwingie & LJ last night Take PO out as he's new, but he spoke very intelligently about the game, his role, future etc etc Pack, Tomlin & LJ - the way they spoke about the club, the fans, what it meant to score that goal in front of the fans.....it was great to hear. Feels like everyone is pulling in the same direction, good times around the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
