One Team Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Skuse was one of those players who lots of people seemed to rate, but I never saw what they did. I guess everyone has one of those! I will say though I know from personal experience what a fantastic man he is and he was a superb ambassador for the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Always remember a particularly miserable defeat at Blackburn in the cup, towards the end of McInnes' time in charge. City were truly awful and at full time, the travelling fans let the players have it "you're not fit to wear the shirt" etc, most of them and the manager either sloped off down the tunnel or sort of half heartedly acknowledged the away end from afar, but Skuse took it up on himself to come over to placate and apologise. He spoke to a group of fans at length which ended with handshakes all round and him getting a round of applause as he left. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaz Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Good on him. Doing it the right way, by starting at the bottom. If he shows any ability, a possible future city manager 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess everyone has one of those! I will say though I know from personal experience what a fantastic man he is and he was a superb ambassador for the club. I always liked him, I would imagine he would be as calming an influence as Manager as he was as a player. I remember playing Ipswich a few years back when McCarthy was still Manager, we were 2-0 up with about 5 minutes to go when Skuse strode forward past a couple of players and played a nice ball out to the wing, no rush, fuss or bother. I said to my daughter who was with me that with Cole you wouldn't know whether you were 2 up or 2 down, he just played his game. I think McCarthy said "he's always 7/10 and you need players like that". I will be adding Bury Town to my watch list, it will be interesting who he signs and who he gets as assistant to begin with. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Red Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Fair play to him, as others have said doing it the right way starting down the football pyramid. Was always a class act for us i thought, he was always quite underrated by our fanbase at times i feel though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 I always remember this goal with his wrong foot, mainly because as good as it is, it wasn't the best goal of the game. Sproule doing his best Messi impression is just incredible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
