Sam Cosgrove

[donsdaft]

It's my middle name, was my Gran's surname.

Family tree would suggest country folk from the surrounding area. (north)

Imagine he does go. We are pretty f@cked

Why the panic?
We have Curtis Main.

.... ok... panic.

One of the worst signings McInnes has made (there’s been a few).
And apparently in terms of wages, not cheap.
Gleeson, Wilson & Main will be on a collective £10k per week approximately.
£500k per annum on those three.
For what return?...

The constant negativity about Cosgrove from certain members of this forum and, indeed, a particular article recently in The Scotsman is tedious nonsense. 37 goals in 69 matches from player that possibly everyone on this forum (including myself) criticised for months after his signing has been a magnificent return.

We've seen the lad, who we were all quick to point out had only scored one career goal before making the move north, comeback from being sent off in the first few minutes of his debut and going the initial months without scoring to going one full year as a regular goalscorer.

On this occasion McInnes, Richardson and the coaching team got it right and we, the AbMad keyboard managers, got it wrong. However, nobody cares or scrutinises when we get it wrong.

Here's hoping Curtis Main can prove the critics, who have written him off before he started, wrong too.

[QUOTE=blowupsheep;39358087]We have been over this discussion on more than one occasion now min and i have been extremely consistent and vocal since the day we signed the lad.
Am I grateful for his goals - yes of course I am, and I've even given the lad credit now and again.
As for being a skillful football player, best to let's just park that discussion. a newborn bambi stay's on it's feet longer than our donkey, he is lucky not be on the receiving end of numerous bookings for his obvious diving, and I ask you if a player from any of our opposition did that sh1t that the donkey does every single game against us, would you just turn a blind eye and say nothing about it, would you fk there would be screaming from the stands at the ref and the player, Cosgrove really does need to wise the fk up with the sh1t.

He's definitely been a find. You can't argue with that record of goals.

This time last year I think most of us thought he was a terrible signing.

I never thought he would turn out to be a better player than Rooney but he probably is.

He’s a better all round footballer than Rooney by a big margin.
Rooney was purely a penalty box striker.
