George Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 9 hours ago, Baggys battle bus said: Following on from the Mick Lyons post, what would be your hard man team of past years watching Wednesday Mine would be ... Pressman Sterland Lyons Pearson Reda Hutch Agent Wilson Carlton Shez Mcculloch Chapnan Shez? Are you drunk? He never put a tackle in? And Hutch isn't hard, he's just daft. I'm not sure Carlton was really. Athletic and committed but I am not sure if he was hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl-zat Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 First person mentioned Lee Chapman who should instantly be ruled out as wasn’t he charged with hitting his missus Leslie Ash? Di Canio was a psycho and no-ones mentioned Andy Pearce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall him as a Croc. Remember he'd head a brick if he needed too. Loved him at Hillsborough. Proper hard poopydoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 These 'hard man' threads are somewhat tiresome and seem to come round every couple of months, but as there is bùgger all else to do I'll bite... Not sure what Pressman has done to be a shoe-in for everyone's XI. He's big but he's out of shape - anyone remember a goalkeeper that neshed out of playing the full 90 minutes more often than Pressman? Surely Martin 'Concussion? What concussion?' Hodge is a better bet, or Steven Bywater certainly looked the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before he arrived ,We were screaming out for a midfielder to put a tackle in ,From the first time I saw him ,From the off knew we had found him .

scilly owl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 It’s a shame that Jim Holton didn’t get a first team game after he signed for Wednesday... he’d probably have been on a few people’s lists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
