Darren Currie .......
I thought he was terrible today, in open play he was so off the pace, we were effectively playing 10 v 11
However, as Luke will quickly point out , he made the goal with a perfect pass.
IMHO Currie, does not do enough to justify us playing a man down!
What do you think????

at the mo. beggers cant be chooser's, he set the goal up which won us a vital 3 points and its not the first time he's done that either......ok so he's not consistant (but then name me a player that is ) one week when Jim wasn't playing Curries corners were 1st class, the next week they were awful. But right now he is our only 'flair, playmaker' call him what you want but he's making a contribution that if you took away we'd be worse off.squiz18 wrote:Thats exactly what i was thinking ! He was sh*te and then up comes an inch perfect pass for westlake. Then he was sh*te again.

Currie was totally shocking today. JR should of taken him off before he set up the goal.
The thing with Currie is he is too slow. I dont mean running wise, you dont need to be able to do the 100m in 11 seconds to be on the pitch, but look at someone even like Jim, he is very slow running wise but can be fast in his football.
Currie gets the ball and his whole action seems so slow, he seems unable to pass first time or quickly. Its like watching someone in slow motion, it REALLY bugs me.
But I guess this is a lot like why Sven keeped Owen on the pitch against Argentina, rubbish for 85 minutes and bangs in 2 goals. Currie had his WORST performance ever against Luton but his one wonder pass secures the game for us.
Football sure is a funny ol' game!

I agree about his inconsistancy. But lets be honest, if we
had known we would have only drawn, or lost if he had been taken
off (I am not disagreeing, just making a point), Then would we
have thought the same.
Probably..
However what concerns me about Currie, unless he has actually
got the ball, he is usually running away from the play..
Never seems to be where you would expect him to be..
Apart from Once..
