manicowl Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Patrick Blondeau was reported to be an hard man but like Di Canio and Bywater he may have just been completely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shandypants Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Graham Hyde was tough as was Mark Pemberton. Neither were the tallest and both played in a position where you had to mix it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't believe me just ask Nigel Winterburn how scared he was. With hindsight knowing he’d never play for us again, oh how I wish Paolo had chinned the weasel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being poor at tackling doesn’t make him hard , he wouldnt be in the top 200.

Oh dear where did I say Sam was in the same league as Mick Lyons ? I , In my opinion mentioned Sam simply because he has bottle and never pulls out of a tackle . That is rare in these days of Mamsy pansy footballers rolling about like clowns . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we have harder players in years gone by but Hutchinson’s attitude is rare these days and if you can’t see that well maybe we don’t judge the game the same way .

It's hard really not to look back in this sort of thread rather than at more recent time (and not just because our signing of biscuits in recent years) But also because. ...well. men just looked a bit more manly in the past.
