Guest Nottingham_Owl Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Chris Waddle despite his age and lack of fitness nowadays can still play some amazing football. His ball control and Skill when it comes to 1 on 1 tackles is amazing. Was he that big a player for the massive that he could/would ever do any coaching related jobs for us, even if it was for the development squad?

Guest Nottingham_Owl Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Has he been given a lengthy opportunity though? He once stood behind me at the cinema queue in Meadwhall..... Just thought it was important to bring that to the thread I play football with him every now and then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fife_owl Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I think he enjoys being a pundit. Would never want him as manager, would be good to have him inspiring the youngsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazinga Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Im playing a charity game against him in a couple of months time.....fully expect him to make me look a complete ***! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpowl Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Once played in a friendly he was playing for an over 35 team, he consistently made me look a mug. remember bringing him down towards the end (by mistake) and then I went in to overdrive with apologies claiming how much of a legend he was and I loved him at wednesday..... He just smiled at me looking back now I bet I looked pathetic it is cringe worthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1867Heaven Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 My brother regularly gets drunk with him in the Devonshire Arms at Dore. When local had a Sunday league side we played against dev a few times and he was playing for them in that period but unfortunately he never played against us, we had a few rough n ready in side but all Wednesday so he would of been safe enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightace Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 If you play footy with him,you'll know he's a mardy arse who gets bag on because the people he's playing with aren't up to his standards :) Legend none the less though and should be involved in coaching or something.

brooklynowl Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 He was born with that skill - it cannot be taught and we should feel privileged he graced Hillsborough with his talents. A true legend and if ever I find myself in the Devonshire Arms I'm buying his drinks all night and paying for his taxi home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
