Storer

[Lambies Lost Doo]

Was not the best tackle but at least he took on Brown during that game.  Good player. Great potential.

Maybe, but he isn’t the 1st and won’t be the last player to do it - even players who are lauded for their hard tackling.

 

Nope, equally I saw John Robertson deliberately stamp on an opposition player. Regardless of the regularity, doesn't mean I should be any more accepting of it.

In my opinion it was a disgusting challenge. There had been nothing to result in or merir retaliation. In fact Brown had had a pretty comfortable game. He hadnt put in any bad tackles on any Jag, never mind on Storer. 

 

It was a nasty challenge that could have ended another players career. Regardless of any opinion of Brown. I don't want to see a Thistle player to that. 

 

Go in hard, go in tough, that's fine. But what Storer did was snide. Studs showing, on the top of the foot/ankle area. Nowhere near the ball. I don't like that. 

Fair enough

I'd rather Thistle players take on Brown the way previous ones have done successfully, like Erskine, or to his credit Edwards. I wouldn't suggest in any way possible that Storer took Brown on, in that game.

Can’t believe the stick Jack Storer is getting for one tackle especially on a player who has made a career out of being confrontational and also has dished it out , maybe Jack Storer got pissed off  with Scott Brown trying to referee the game as well and decided enough was enough . One of the problems we’ve got with the team just now is we’re a soft touch , there’s no Charnley , Hardie , Lennon or Albert Craig to win tackles or even to get involved in the physical side of the game.

Provided Storer listens to the senior pros round about him to remind he’s got to channel his aggression and stay on the park, I don’t see what the problem is or would you prefer our players just to sit back and admire the footballing abilities of better players and better teams .

Don’t think that’s the way it works in football , it’s a battle physically to try and win the game and the best teams have always had someone who takes the rules to the limit whether that’s a Roy Keane or a Ramos at Real Madrid.

Storer has got a lot to learn but there is ability there .

It's almost like you completely ignored everything I said. Which is a shame.

How much stick? 1 person having a conversation over 3 or 4 posts. That's hardly any stick. Who he fouled has no relevance. If he'd done the same to someone you like, would you have less of an opinion of him? That says more about you, sadly. 

 

As I said, I have no issue with tough tackling. I loved watching Hugh Murray in the middle of the park. Very much on the Roy Keane mould. I called for us to be making moves for Paton during the close season. 

 

Again, I haven't said I don't want out players to tackle. So no idea why you assume I think they should just stand back and admire the opposition.

 

Again, no problem  having someone who takes the rules to the limit. If you think a snide stamp on someone's ankle that could end their career is taking it to the limit, I'd rather watch a different game.

I/We’ve no idea what went on before that whether it was verbals or whatever , but Scott Brown has made a career out of being confrontational and in your face .

Remember this is the guy who put Harry Cochrane out the game for 3 months , basically because the youngster had bossed him the previous game, Storer’s tackle wasn’t even remotely at that level .

Or nothing went on before it?

[Big Col]

The boy has talent. Just needs some guidance with keeping the heid. The tackle on Brown was poor but he’s not the first footballer to put in a poor tackle. And no harm came of it. 

Would be a shame if he left in December, especially if it is at the expense of Mtwembe who unfortunately does not look like a player at all. 

[lady-isobel-barnett]

Making no point either way but one of the dirtiest Scottish footballers I've ever seen was our esteemed ex-manager, Mr Auld. 

[Dick Dastardly]

I have a feeling that Storer could become one of those players that opposition supporters hate, but you love to have playing for you. A sort of Nacho Novo or Dougie Imrie type. If he can learn to control the aggression then that could be an asset 

[Paulo]

I'm surprised there is so much opinion, especially divided opinion, on the boy at this stage.  I certainly haven't seen enough from him to say he's potentially great, or that he's a complete waste.  Shows some nice touches, some really daft touches.  The only point I'd make is the times I've seen him, I struggle to identify where he's trying to play.  For periods he can be the last midfielder back while we're attacking, or the furthest up the pitch while we're defending.  

[elevenone]

Just been sent off again this afternoon in reserve game.  What is this boy thinking?

[HeWearsNumber9]

The boys done ,not a chance on earth whoever replaces Archie’s going too waste there time on Jack. Gave him his chance he didn’t take it ,will be lucky to make it to January.

[northjag]

Just back from the reserve game. Terrible performance. Storer sent off. Not surprised cause he is a ticking time bomb. Thought he was unlucky to get sent off as he only shoved the hibs player in the chest. Think storer’s reputation preceded him which is why the ref sent him off. 

[Maestro]

It looked like we had quiet a strong team out today but got an absoute pasting 

[Hankey]

Lol bunch of jobbers

Love this guy.

Soon more red cards than goals.

[lady-isobel-barnett]

Judging by the reaction from the Hibs bench there was more to it than just a shove. 

Don't think Jack has what it takes to be our new player-manager. In terms of temperament this fella makes Jimmy Gibson look like Iniesta.

[Weebaw1]

He will probably depart soon, with a legacy of his magnificent strike vs Morton.

I agree that we shouldn’t waste too much energy on him. But perhaps McColl could ‘sort him on’.

 

[Third Lanark]

He really should have just been given a 6 month contract- now he will likely be paid off in January and we will have wasted more money. 

Should also have only given Brice a 6 month deal to prove himself and don’t think Mcginty should have been given 2 years either
