Owl Be Back Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 He needed one extra touch than he had time to do and never learned that issue so couldn't adapt to the English league. Not on his own in that regard but that fundamental flaw and a basic ability to adapt it into his game was the reason why he failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 One of our worst ever signings, his attitude stunk and he was just laughing his way through games knowing how much he was earning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weshallovercome Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I don't hate anyone really, it's a wasted emotion, but I've made an exception for De Bilde. How he gets to analyse footy on Belgium tele after assaulting his wife and daughter beggars belief, every time I see him I just want to punch the tele.

Baldrick Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I left the ground about 10 minutes before the end one game and his missus was parked on Penistone Road in a BMW with Belgian plates, engine running As I recall he had been substituted early in the 2nd half and guess he wasnt planning on hanging about for the post match team talk Probably sums up his time with us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorian gray Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 3 hours ago, Nut said: My main memory of him is an away game at Stockport where it absolutely hammered it down all game and we got drenched on the open away end. There was a corner just in front of us and de bilde had his hands up his sleeves and his head tucked back into his shoulders as if trying to shelter from the rain rather than being bothered about the game. It really showed to me he wasn't that interested, although I think he may have scored that game. Alan Kelly was in goal and I think we lost 3 1. proper fainthearted ****pot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomtheOwl95 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Remember reading an article a few years ago about De Bilde from a Belgian magazine or something and to sum it up it basically said he was a complete to55er. Nobody seems to have a good word to say about him. One of many who took the club for a ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Never saw the best of De Bilde, thought he was going to a decent signing but Degryse was a class player that I liked watching, was gutting that Degryse didn't stick around longer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Sounds like a nutter, like the likes of Maradona; Gazza, Cantona, Zidane, Suker, Djalminha and Di Canio, etc. Some nut jobs are still quality players. De Bilde struck me as a player like the likes of Jonk and many others, that didn't fit what we needed at the time. Sadly, DC and Paxo's recruitment years later as been a car crash too.
