Because he's utterly <ovf censored>. Bristol Rovers fans told us he was. Not a single one on their forum gave him any sort of praise from what I remember. Why were we even looking at someone a side below us at the time didn't want and with his goal-scoring record, or lack of one, in the first place?

The fact that you use "didn't play too badly" as some sort of praise say's it all. 

He’s a striker. He has less career league goals than Nathan Smith. If you didn’t laugh you’d cry.

Need goals and we bring on Ikpeazu, a striker that has 9 goals to his name since 2020. Another wonderful piece of transfer business by Flitcroft and company.

They certainly want the ball more.

He was named on the bench at 2.58pm

Someone must have picked up an injury in the warm up which happens quite alot at vale

At 2.58pm?? That shouldn’t be allowed I’m putting a complaint in 🤣

You can say we're dog <ovf censored>, you know. Just once. You're not going to spontaneously combust after.

Ever thought for a moment that we have a tendency to make teams look considerably better than they actually are?

I could but I'm a proper Vale fan.

She won’t sack Crosby. It’d cost money.

Obviously thats where  we are going wrong, Play Smith upfront and Loft at centre half. Surprised we havent tried it if the stats support it.

And Bristol Rovers pretended they were signing someone to replace him….they had a great laugh at our expense. 
 

Thanks Flitcroft.

Since he was appointed there, he has earned double the amount of league points at Cheltenham than Crosby has with us.

Attached is the league table at the time of his appointment,

Gee, d'ya think maybe it was a mistake for us to replace Clarke with Crosby????

[rob1983]

What was Ripley doing on the third goal. Christ.

[Valiiant]

 

If we draw this half some of the usual bunch will be calling for Crosby to be given an extension.
