Danny Crow - what do we know?


So the Crow has swooped/flown in/landed/other bird pun of choice. As I said yesterday, I’m not sure it’s an entirely necessary signing, but if we have the cash in the budget – and I’m sure we wouldn’t overspend, we never have before, ho hum – adding a quality player to the squad can’t be a bad thing.

A lot has been made of his bad attitude, mostly stemming from the now infamous Big Ron Manager documentary which P*sh took part in a few years back. But a glance at the Scum messageboard shows that opinion about our new signing is very much divided.

There’s the good:

“Good luck to him. The best natural finisher at the Club for years. Pity it has not worked out and obviously faults on BOTH sides.”

“Far more natural talent than Rendell or Hatch but its up to the manager to get players to perform. I know who I blame.”

The bad:

“I would say he had every chance, but he just seemed disinterested and lazy. I was keen for him to do well, and prove his critics wrong but ended up totally disillusioned with his lack of effort.”

“He was a workshy mofo who was good in his debut season, when he had something to prove. good riddance. shame we had to pay him to leave.”

And the indifferent:

“Crow never got a chance under DF, and i'm actually pretty gutted about that as he quite clearly has talent to go far (albeit his attitude somewhat overshadows that talent).”

Seems like a signing that could either way really. But on the positive side, Evil came with a reputation as a troublemaker and he’s done alright so far. If the Brabinator can keep all these strikers happy, we will surely have the best frontline in the division.
