    At the end of the day he’s probably the best technical player we have in the squad. If we only had players around him who could read his passes. His major weakness is no end product?

    Remember the “Clockwork Orange” game at Highbury? He was our standout player. Great day out that was.

    Is my memory playing tricks but I thought Ronnie Brown was our standout that day ( was it the 2-1 loss in FA cup?)

    It wasn't meant to be mischievous, apologies if you thought so. "People like you" is referring to you sitting behind the "Adams picks him and he's a football manager so I must be right" angle without actually offering any reasoning.

    Instead, why don't you tell us why you rate him. Explain what you believe he brings to the team and what he does well, or at least looks like he's capable of doing well.

    I believe that's all @Offcomedun@Offcomedun was asking before all this nonsense from us both.

    '<insert mangers name> picks him so he must be right' pretty much nullifies any talk before or after a game. Might as well shut this place down.

    The irony, I thought you were all for bringing back as some posts don't deserve a reply, just saying like.

    He was moved more central that particular season, he played a more centre forward role than right wing, maybe we could do the same will Gilly ?.

    Nah. The turd emoji was just for the adults on here without the mental or emotional capacity to deal with cartoon pictures.

    I'm sure you know of such posters.

    No mate
    The game I am thinking was 1973 at Highbury we lost 2-0
    Not sure but I think it was before Ronnie Browns time

    You wanted them introducing on this forum, saying some posts didn't deserve a reply, then quoting @1975citygent@1975citygent, "It's a football forum, it usually helps if you add your own reasoning to an opinion", do make your mind up.

    Steve - you’re right about the score but I’m sure Ronnie played that day. Where’s RCB or Don Alred when I need them? By the way, Ronnie was one of favourites back in the day but never seen a footballer smoke as much.

    Whatever the skill levels of those guys back in the day they certainly had character, sadly missing today...

    Spot on @Tennesseebantam@Tennesseebantam he played no 8 that day (just checked the programme)
    2 things stand out in my mind from that day John Halls header (I believe) hit the crossbar and hundreds of Arsenal fans under the clock wearing scrubs !!
    Ronnie certainly liked his smokes and also a flutter back in the day
    Great Memories !!!!

    Strangely, my memory was buying hot roasted chestnuts outside the ground.
