Milky Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 He may be a year older but he's still shit. Rather than saying he's shit, just say he's not good enough for this level or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 He's a shadow of the player that I saw make his debut aged 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milky Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Stearman is actually a centre back, and to be fair to him we haven't seen him in that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynny Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Oh he's not THAT bad. Think of Alan Maybury and be thankful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Stearman is actually a centre back, and to be fair to him we haven't seen him in that position. He played there briefly in the friendly against Portsmouth, if I remember rightly. I don't doubt that Stearman celebrated his birthday in style.

Stevosevic Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Broke into the team at the age of 17, now 20 and still just a squad player. I'm sure he would agree when i say he has not progressed as much as we would have wished, of course there is still time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anish Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Forget 'not progressed' - he's gone backwards over the last year and a half. It's such a shame too, he looked a fantastic prospect when he first broke through. I think a lot of the blame lies directly at Stearman himself, especially with his off-field partying. But he has been badly managed I agree, especially with Kelly playing him in any available position. I think he's got to really knuckle down to realise the potential he had, otherwise he could quite easily fall by the wayside and become another City academy kid that drops down the divisions into obscurity.

All very true. He used to be our brightest prospect. Now he can't command a place in the squad, never mind the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 I think that Stearman has himself to blame. Apparently, he's a bit of a character and didn't get along with RK or Levein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 19 August 2007 Share Posted 19 August 2007 Yes, i'm sure Richard Stearman is sitting at his computer reading Joe's comment on Foxestalk The comments do get back I assure you. And such remarks are totally unjustified. Stearman has generally been much more his old self since MA arrived and if Stearman fails to command a place it will be because he's got stronger competition now.

Stearman has generally been much more his old self since MA arrived and if Stearman fails to command a place it will be because he's got stronger competition now. Sorry Thracian but how can you possibly say he's been much more his old self when he's barely played? Stearman's not playing for a one reason. He's not good enough. Simple as. In my opinion he's not a good enough player for us and won't ever be. Since making a promising start at 17, he's only gone downhill. Can't see him being at the club for much longer really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see him being at the club for much longer really I saw him throughout pre-season and it was quite clear he was properly fit and focused. Like many young players he's still erratic but as a fairly versatile player who can play central defence or full-back I doubt there'd be a rush to be rid of him. Whether he can be a significant squad member considering the competition he'll face, both now and in the future, is another matter entirely. But MA seemed to hold him in fairly high regard when he commented on him at Kilworth. But things can change fast in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
