To be fair , there was a large group of SCers who liked kaboom first time around . He made a coupla high profile CB mistakes and got a rep for unreliability...but there was a fair amount of realisation here that the man had potential .
His departure was not a delight to all by any means . We spotted the man had something I'd say .
On to ratings , I've just seen the 1st half again and theres plenty of loose stuff ,aimless clearances etc...Not wildly impressed...million miles adrift of Barca and some here rate it as our finest 45 this season .

TBF, I did say 'some Spurs fans were harsh on him" and not "I was a lone voice crying in the Wilderness, a prophet of his unrecognised genius":grin:
There was a noticeably large element on SC, however, who were constantly on his back, and who decried his return to the Lane.
