Nailed it.
He's one of our own until he's not. Even then, it's bottom of the barrel to judge a 19 year old just because you don't like the way he dresses.
I reserve the right to judge anybody on how they dress. Especially hipsters.

I have no idea what you are talking about.I reserve the right to judge anybody on how they dress. Especially hipsters.
Yes, point taken - perhaps we old gits (well, this old git at least) were a little harsh on one of our own youngsters.
But surely if you choose to publicise yourself in this way you are expecting (asking) people to judge you??
He's done fuck all since Poch praised him, decided he was too good to turn up to work at Norwich on time a single time during his loan there and was sacked. That's where the questions of his mentality come from- and rightly so.It's fine to think he dresses like an idiot! Just not to relate this to an attitude problem or to say he believes his own hype.
Just to clarify, I too think he dresses like an idiot.
Was it WindyCOYS on the pod who'd heard about Edwards going out on the lash in Norwich instead of concentrating on the job, too?He's done fuck all since Poch praised him, decided he was too good to turn up to work at Norwich on time a single time during his loan there and was sacked.

The state o the cunt
Can see both sides but when a young player:
• Is called out by Poch as needing to knuckle down
• Gets farmed out as not making the grade
• Loan is cut short due to mentality and attitude problems
You would think it would be a wake-up call to sort yourself out. Football, more than ever before is about a player's brand and living to a clubs values, especially us – I'm ok with that.
He then follows the above with:
• Posts ridiculous videos of himself and his mates on social media
• Posts images of him with attitude online
He is 20 and not achieving much in a highly competitive industry
So to call him out, I don't see it as a witch hunt – the guy seems a few sandwiches short of a picnic to not realise, close his social accounts and start knuckling down. If he doesn't he could disappear into obscurity. He'll be more gutted of that than me but I would prefer he turned it around and lit up the league as one of our own.
It's a forum and it's where we chat about these things, hopefully nobody is hassling him directly.

Belter.Is that not a Rizla packet on the floor top left?
:mong:
I'd have said an empty packet of BBQ hula hoops, an unidentified plastic box (I'll go with you on the egg mayo sandwich) and a packet of OCB papersBelter.
It looks like an empty packet of frazzles, an egg mayonnaise sandwich box from the Shell garage, and, yes, a pack of red rizla.
This is the point. No one knows the context. Yet have trampled all over him.Notice that it's likely not even his car. His mate is driving. All of this stuff could be his mates, as he's not exactly going to throw this stuff into his own footwell

Why do you think the photo is for your benefit?Well kindof Spursdem.
Surely the point is that he's chosen to post this photo, this is not some paparazzi stitch-up.
So he's either stupid, or this is how he wants the world (us) to see him. In which case are we not entitled to give our views on his photos of himself - a highly paid professional sportsmen dressed like a prat in a fast car, surrounded by fast food wrappers and rizlas...... Am I supposed to be impressed?
