Charles Monkey Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Who was better? We all know Hirsty was a Wednesday legend. However, who was the better player during the 89-90 season? Atkinson had fantastic pace and ball control but the finishing let him down. Nevertheless, he was top goalscorer that season. I personally thought Atkinson was better but his departure at the end of this relegation season appeared to be the making of Hirsty. I'm intrigued to know what other older owls talkers think.

KivoOwl Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 It's not as bad a question as you think. For the 1989/90 season ONLY - there wasn't a lot in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Monkey Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 Absolutely real question. I thought Atkinson was better that season. Hirsty was phenomenal the season after. Scored 32 goals from what I remember. Would he have been as prolific if Atkinson had stayed though? Paul Williams was the perfect foil for Hirsty wheras Atkinson was more of a competitor for goals.

vulva Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Without doubt, Dalian Atkinson had more ability than Hirst, but no where near the same attitude, hence the reason why Hirst had the better career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 You've gotta be kidding Not at all. Atkinson should have won 50 caps. He was unplayable for a while, but made the wrong career move, chased the money and fell by the wayside. Shocking waste of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshfish Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) ..it was very obvious when you saw DA marked out of a game...great striker with strength and speed but Hirtsy was unplayable even though he had off days.
