Graham Roberts vs Jan Molby

Good afternoon.

Just when I thought I was out.. they dragged me back in…

Rambo Roberts, arguably one of the world’s worst football managers has been challenged formally by Jan Molby for the coveted title of Football’s Fattest Burnout.

But who will win?

Rambo’s position is pretty straightforward. Here we have a guy who if boxing referees legislated media careers, would have been counted out for his own good years ago. Last seen by me personally on the High Road signing photos for a tenner a pop off a trellis table. Revered in most of our hearts as a footballer, but …his time since then has been an unremitting disaster. His comments on AVB mark him as a mentalist. So tell me why Rambo is he persona non grata at The Lane, it can’t be because he thinks he has a commercial value as high as Jimmy Greaves…

Molby

Hahahahhahaha. Please, tell me this ridiculous barfly was paid for this direct into his fat palm and it wasn’t a case of the cheque from adifferentleague.co.uk. going straight to the landlord.

I score it as yet another unscrupulous media own goal. If you, dear reader are bored by all this, then please think about what is your rather sniffy ‘who cares’ contribution actually worth? Or maybe you are content to propagate these poisonous seeds by doing nothing. Maybe you are so demanding and cheap a supporter you only cheer when we’re winning. I don’t know, but I am certain you’ll tell me.

    HH, think before you write. This is the man who managed Kidderminster Harriers for four seasons, after all. I think he deserves quite a bit of respect, and his opinions should not be taken lightly.

    Having read his article, it becomes quite clear that he is also psychic, and knows exactly what Lloris is actually feeling and thinking – in a way that the rest of can not do based simply upon two sentences of quotes taken out of context. Finally, he can see the future, and knows that both Friedel and Lloris will fair to perform well as a direct result of AVB’s comments.

    We all need to pay heed to the sage advice and opinions of the incomparable Jan Mølby.

    Harry .. with so much going on at the moment its a shame this sort of article gets written.
    Robo was my fav play growing up .. I remember well him going in goal for Clemo at Fulham in the FA Cup all them years ago..and his goal against Bruge ..a screamer ..
    I do agree with what you say though .. his brains seem to be in his feet not his head … why do so many heros of old feel the need to spoil the memories with ill advised comments ? Gary Mabbutt … Steve Perryman .. “chicken on shirt” DAMN RIGHT !!!!

    The press / media coverage of football is becoming less and less relevant as football supporters become more educated and informed. Back in the “good old days” (my arse!) when(no offence meant here, honest) most football fans were semi literate and of low socio economic status ( or as I like to call them, Chelsea fans) the papers could get away with printing any old carp that your mug punter would consume with a bacon roll down the cafe but now we are all a bit more educated and a bit more savvy and drink lattes the dross trotted out by your John Cross and Adrian Durham types is irrelevant to the thinking football supporter

    You see the difference between Roberts and the rest of the former players versus the likes of Gary Neville and a couple of other recently retired players on TV.

    There’s no comparison. It’s like asking some of the least tactically aware twats out there for an opinion based on their so-called hero status.

    Roberts isn’t a Spurs amabassador. Axe to grind.

    Hall of fame? Hope not after those comments – and let that be a lesson to some of the others.
