Collis Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Worth noting that Cole Skuse has not been booked all season! A fantastic achievement in itself. (I think he was only booked once last season - maybe someone could check that)Our most booked player is our captain Carey with 11 yellow cards and 1 red card. Sorry I was bored.

Sorry I was bored.if you`re bored could you do me an updated league table with the results adjusted by removing each clubs top scorers goals. I think it would show how we`ve benefited by not being a `one man team` i`m just too idle to do it myself. PDG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I was bored.Nothing wrong with the odd booking or two. A passionate and determined side will inevitably come across cards from time to time.

A passionate and determined side will inevitably come across cards from time to time.I disagree.You do not show passion for your club accumulating bookings and ultimately serving bans and receiving fines. I don't really want to have a dig at Carey because in the main he has been fantastic for us this season, he has unfortunately just lost his cool on a few occasions.Skuse is a perfect example of a player who can keep his emotions in his head and not getting carried away.

A passionate and determined side will inevitably come across cards from time to time.I agree with what you said there about picking some cards up for passion, commitment and determination. but with carey not all of his have really been for those 3 things, as dissent don't really count or the one he picked up against scunny where tangled with the scunny forward, and was lucky in the incident at Northampton. And then does that show that Skuse aint that commited to the cause as not picked up any bookings not even for being passionate or determined on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But so has Orr, Keogh, McCoombe etc and they have not picked up even half of the amount of cards Carey has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtucks Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I know it was a different era, but big John Atyeo played a total of 645 games for us and, in all that time was never booked or sent off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
