[Archived] Keith Andrews - Time He Went

[jim mk2]

Nicky Marker was a much better player than Andrews though. When he made a tackle the opponent knew it!

Marker could also head the ball forwards instead of sideways or backwards, pass the ball accurately over 10 yards and read the game, all basic footballing skills that Andrews lacks. As the manager's pet, no doubt Andrews sets out the cones before training and collects them all himself afterwards, and scrubs the manager's back in the bath, but the Ewood crowd aren't fooled and they know a poor player when they see one.

The player I would compare Andrews to is Graham Oates, another talentless midfield player from the 1970s. Good character, would keep running all day and always willing to follow the manager's instructions etc etc but basically hopeless.

This board gets so boring sometimes.

Can I point out that Rovers have not bought proven players since Jack's heyday.

Yes Joey and even back in the day we bought our share of fringe players and stiffs:

Alan Wright, Le Saux, Sherwood, Newell, Hendry come to mind. I'm sure there are others I've forgotten.

And now only 29 days to the Legend that will be KEEF scoring the winner at the Turd.

[mhead]

This is all a result of Keith's upbringing in Galway. I blame it on his parents and the Catholic church.

The aim should be to 'point' him in the direction of the Dingles.

Lets just pray that hes nowhere near Turf Moor on that day otherwise we'll be singing 'we've only got ten men'.

Portsmouth's blundering defender Marc Wilson has been called up to the RoI squad. He's rated by both Trapattoni and Avram Grant - must be a good player, eh?

Don't bring the troll back out, Topman!

[T4E]

Yes, I knew he was being ironic, but it could still provoke another rambling by Keef's agent/brother/sex pet/Jonnolad.

No, the irony was in your response.

[martmitch]

Hopefully Keith will learn a few things from brazil tonight

[Amo]

Andrews was limping for a few moments. Jan's voodoo doll almost did the trick!

[T4E]

Keef is currently giving Kaka a footballing lesson.

[imy9]

Oh Keith!

[T4E]

Hahahahaha. KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF.

[Balwer]

Better for Ireland than us Keith!

[RovertheHill]

Great finish. Now if he can just remember which end he should be at....

[Stuart]

Quality finish. I thought the keeper had his angles covered too.

[T4E]

Kaka would have missed that.

[Guest roverspogges]

To be fair he had to try and block the ball across but it is funny though!

[Stuart]

In fairness, it was definitely offside.

I actually feel slightly sorry for the lad.

[braddock]

he's playing very well
