The Post-Mackie era begins

[Jimmy Floyd Rabbit]

He scored 9 goals in 25 appearances ffs.
He was a huge player for us in that season.

Huge?

[Stanley]

Maybe not huge but he scored some very important goals for us that season. Derby and Ipswich away come to mind. Warnock always got the best out of him too and his influence in the dressing room no doubt played a big part in the team spirit we had.

Huge?

It means very big

[Brian Wilson]

Got some important goals (7) in our 1st season back in the prem too when bigger names were letting us down.

And if he hadn't had his season cut short in January that year, he'd have easily got more.

Exactly.
His performances and goals helped us hit the ground running in the early part of that season.
Couple that with what Stan pointed out above, it’s obvious to see he gave the team momentum straight away which was huge (sorry jimbo, very big )

compared to kenny? hill? taraabt, derry, helguson, routledge, faurlin, gorrks etc and many others he wasn't. btw 8 of those goals came in his first 7 games so he only scored 1 in 18 after that hardly a huge player, effective yes but certainly not a key player that season

Like I said, he helped build momentum early on in the campaign, which imo makes him a huge part of the team.

Ignore what I say though, I certainly wouldn’t want to deprive you of one of your little pleasures in life so crack on sniggering like a year 1 schoolboy at Hitmans hilarious nicknames.

First mention of "Gump" comes from Rebel I think #creditwhereitsdue

Haha, not quite.

It is not about what he did 6 -7 years ago but what he brings to the team now. Which is nothing. Holloways fault for playing an out of form player every possible opportunity.Tactics are shaped so he can always play him to the detriment of the team. Has set him up for ridicule.
I sometimes wonder if Holloway is just a figurehead and really Mackie picks the team.

Still played his part a water carrier so Adel could do his thing i think you under estimate his overall contribution that season

Played his part yes. Wasn't huge though. Adel, Faurlin, Derry, Hill and Kenny were huge.

Yep, I never started the Gump name but after it was said...... I ran with it.

Seriously, if you are offended by my humour and banter regarding mackie. Then I will stop it.
All you had to do was say it 😊
