davieG Posted 16 August 2004 Posted 16 August 2004 Lets face it, if Scowcroft was renamed Tommy Wright and had 10 years knocked off of his age, he'd be good enough for england by now 11937[/snapback] Not at all, but at the end of the day what's wrong with encouraging the youngsters to be given a chance. Why shouldn't they be? At the end of the day Scowcroft has had 8 or 9 years to prove himself in professional football and hasn't, so people who stick up for him are just as bad. 12019[/snapback] If he hasn't proved himself in professional football how come so many Premier Teams, admittedly not the best ones are interested in him. Are all these managers wrong?

Scow Posted 16 August 2004 Posted 16 August 2004 Scowcroft would have got at least 10 goals last season if he was played in his proper position. He still managed to get 5 from the right/left wing.
Guest freund Posted 16 August 2004 Posted 16 August 2004 didn't he get about 12 goals from the wing the season before in div one?

Nee oil painting though 12033[/snapback] So he's an average player who hasn't proved himself in professional football, how big do you what to make that hole you are digging for yourself.

I'm not digging at all, in my opinion Scowcroft is nothing special. He is definately not a £3 million pound player, he has aspired in to nothing really. In 10-15 years will anyone remember James Scowcroft? The answer to that is 'no' he is no better than players like Richard Cresswell and Danny Cadamarteri, players who were touted as being something special and then just failing to ever produce the goods in the top league. He's alright, he'll do a job but he's had 8 or 9 years in football and he's not impressed me. He has his critics and he has his fans, as a striker he'll never let you down, but as a winger there's no point in him.

It's more of a wide right position which entails getting in to the box and making a third striker when attacking.
Mark Posted 16 August 2004 Posted 16 August 2004 Not doing much good is it? Didnt last season and he's hardly sparkled this season so sort out a proper winger FFS, play with 2 strikers like most normal teams do, and push Williams up there when we go forward instead of that flaming lovechild.

I would personally prefer Canero right wing when he's fit, with Makin right back, but I doubt that will happen.

MON Posted 2 November 2004 Posted 2 November 2004 :w00t: :laugh:I think i'll just say, I dont agree with you! I forgot Scowcroft isnt under the age of 21 that means he cant be any good can it ? Williams is good and im sure Dublin is. So, age doesnt matter when you're shit. 2886[/snapback] Bet you regret saying that petrescu
