I shake my head when I see him in the starting line up.

I refuse to clap him as he comes on the pitch as a sub.

But I won't boo any player wearing a Rovers shirt.

hr

I can only assume Sam looks only at match stats when deciding his team. I'd like to know the stat for successful pass completion further than 10 yards. I think Andrews racks up points for making short sideways and backward passes to team mates. Granted he will make the odd Lampard-esque slide rule pass but more often than not his passing goes astray.

At least from where I'm sat.

Apologies for last night jisty, alchol and rage dont know why I let it get to me but I do.

Totally in agreement with what you say, after seeing Andrews in the last three games, Allardyce just hasnt come out with any credit at all to have started him against Manchester United if Allardyce thought he could do a job against Man U then the fans are entitled to start thinking about who the next manager is going to be.

At the end of the day many of the older Rovers fans have probably seen more hours of high class football than the proclaimed expert has.

There is NOTHING argumentative about it, he is simpy the worst ever player, even worse than Paul Shepstone, to pull on a Rovers shirt.

That is one hell of a statement! You must have a phenomenal memory! But why then do both Allardyce and Trappatoni continue to play him? I`m not going to pass judgement one way or the other because I`m not a professional player, coach or pundit but still am confused as to why such managers would choose to play him. He must be doing something right??

I don't think he is the worst player to put on a Rovers shirt - what a ridiculous statement. However, he should be nothing more than a squad player - and I am prepared to give Sam the benefit of the doubt regarding his constant playing of Andrews until Emerton, Grella and Reid are fully fit. If he continues to play him in preference to anyone of those players - then I would be seriously concerned.

That's still a fallacy. History is littered with respected managers who have kept faith in complete donkeys.

The article says Guti has a problem with the current Real boss?? He will be gone before January anyway so he wont have to worry too much about him!!

Cant see us getting him to be honest - although you never know with Sam and his ageing super-stars

Andrews loses the ball to Mokoena, Mokoena loses the ball to Andrews...repeat ad nauseam

Which one will wear stupid coloured boots that dont match their kit ?

Maybe Andrews should wear a red nose to match his play.

That statement is true, each and every word. And NO I suffer no alzheimers !

The only reason I can think of why both SA and Trap pick him is simply because there is NO other choice.

I beg you to tell me WHAT IF ANYTHING Andrews brings to our team apart from weakening it !

Moko is better than Keith... at least moko tackles (sometimes) and he went through a good patch with us for a very limited time... keith has done neither so far

Andrews has scored some pretty important goals for us actually. He's also been one of the most versatile members of our squad and the most fittest.

Get over the Andrews bashing its getting tiresome :tu:
