    Ronaldo is now 37 and playing, so I'm sure most of our set of crocked pensioners can handle another 3 or 4 years before they decide to quit, don't you?
    The thing is imo if we’re going down it’s a big difference in quality and pace so there are an odd one or two that could maybe do a job for us as part of a squad ( not saying they’d start every week ).

    Truthfully a few of the names are going to the level they s be playing at - as for the Ronaldo analogy - Ashley Barnes - JBG or Ronaldo it’s not really a hard choice is it.

    I was not claiming our lot are better than Ronaldo, I'm just alluding to the fact elite professional footballers are not ready for the knackers yard at 30.

    Neither are they as effective as elite professional footballers at 25-28, and if you overload your squad with them, which is what we have done, you end up bottom of the league, which is where we are.

    Without writing an essay to justify a response, I seriously think you are talking bollox sinkov...
