I’d just add, everyone talks about the goal against Brazil (which was class btw) but for me his stand out performance was against Argentina in the WCQF, he was brilliant when he came on in that game.

I agree he was brilliant for Liverpool but rarely ( very rarely ) anything above very average for England And Currie was brilliant for them and Leeds but managers managed to ignore him largely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d still take Barnes over Currie though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growl67 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Currie is up there with my favourite British players despite playing for the other lot, when it came down to entertaining the crowd, he was up there with the likes of Chris Waddle and Gascogne. Still not as good as Johnny Fantham though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtawnyowl Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Thought Tony Currie (I'll not say TC as everyone on here knows there is only one TC) came across very modest and down to earth. And so far up his own arse I'm amazed you could hear his voice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were a postman and spent all shift passing parcels between you and your mates in your own depot yard (half of the pitch) and only posted 4 letters in November (shots on goal) I wonder how long you'd be in a job? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this stage of the season -- top 6 seems highly unlikely -- we may as well give Carlos the season, and take our time finding the correct manager. Mick, what would your opinion be, if Carlos is given another season after this one -- which can't be discounted, as none of us can 'read' what our chairman is thinking -- would you support the decision or want a replacement?
