How good is Gumpy?

[MrCelery]

Silly question really.

From his rousing reception at his introduction to the game, to his influence on the latter half of the match, to his cracking goal, to his acknowledgment of the crowd at the end. No wonder he's my all-time favourite Mariners player.

I have always been a Gumpy supporter, even when he was facing the chop.
It was great to see him net a well deserved goal.

Makes you see how stupid Lawrie was last season doesn't it.

Osman was useless!  My start an average player like Osman when you have a Rolls Royce like Gumpy sitting on the bench.

osman played right back last season before the injury

are you saying gumpy should have played right back?

 

[Wombat]

Why was Osman playing RB last night?????

My point is Gumprecht is a class player and Osman is not.  He was treated poorly by the club last year because the Gaffer had the shits with him. Lawrie stupid fued even cost us the GF.

He is fit now as should start every game.

osman was not playing right back last night

but you said lawrie was stupid for playing osman ahead of gumpy LAST season when ossie was playing right back

again i ask, should gumpy have played right back last season?

 

[Kareem]

Gumprecht in midfield >>> Osman
however Osman >>> Gumpy in defence
last year I agree wth Lawries decision
this year NO WAY- Gumprecht simply owns Osman going forward!

 

[Wombat]

I wouldn't play him at RB no and Osman did over-achieve until he got injured. However that has nothing to do with last night or do want to disregard that.

He usually played Porter or Owens in Gumps spot and neither of them is in his class either.

I agree, but I was just making a response in regards to your comments about last season.

So we can now ascertain that Lawrie was not stupid in playing Osman ahead of Gumpy last season.

 

[Wombat]

OK let me clarify.

Lawrie was stupid with his handling of Gumps full stop last season.

In yesterday's game he was stupid starting Osman ahead of Gumpy.

Well done Gumps we love you
