He has this really effortless running style that makes it look like people just aren't there. He literally just glides past people, its well weird/really impressive.

Definitely one to be watched, considering his name is an anagram of......
RAN-D KNOB BARER.

I know, I know, I'll get my coat.


The astonishing extent of your mental acuity leaves me open-mouthed.

Full respect to you, old chum.

I'm too young to answer that! He was just a handful of years before my team.

Similar though Beagrie didn't look quite as effortless from what I can remember. I was still only about 10/11. Was a big fan of him though

That part of his game reminds me of John Barnes (who I didn't like at all actually) he seemed to get away from people at times without looking as if he was sprinting at all. Beagrie wasn't so quick but better at crossing.

Barker also reminds me of a young Peter Barnes at times.

High praise Ted. When he was on blob Barnsey was a sight to behold. Naturally gifted and could ghost past players seemingly without having to run full tilt.

I can't quote. I don't see the quote button or the edit button for some reason. It's been like that since the site changed last time. I've asked in the help section and it seems there's no real reason for it, but it still persists. Me and computers. It's always been like this. I secretly hate them. I used to have a regular hacker help me out when I had computer problems and he always said I had the strangest problems, like he'd never seen before.

Mate, with all these signs, don't you think it's time to cut down the use of those dodgy porn sites?

I don't think you should ever regard that scenario as a problem.

You ought to look at it as being more a statement of unsurpassed individuality........

......on the other hand, just grin and bear it.

Yes, when the rest of the world gets attacked by their Iphones or Android phones after they become self aware, mine will probably turn out to be an easily manipulated dimwit, with a reduced thinking capability after a few months with me.

In the meantime, stiff upper lip!
