He was a tosspot, but he was "our tosspot"

Call him what the fuck you like, but he played more than a fair part in our recent rise back to prominence.

 

In his day at Bolton, a decent player. Good enough to pick up a few U-21 caps too.

so why do they keep hammering him on here, never my favourite, but deserves a break.

We always seem to need someone to hammer.

 

As for "Young Nicholas", he was no worse than Steinsson. But he wasn't a foreigner with tattoos etc

spot on traf

All we need is a team of Nicky Hunts.

 

I'm with Traf and Athywhite on this one. The only reason Hunt get so much shiyte is because he's a local.

 

Like Jussis tendency to drop to his knees, the lad had a the odd fault but, generally I thought he did a good job for us and was there in our best period for many a year.

 

Bolton fans have always had a hate figure, most often misguided. Roy Greaves springs to mind and he was a fcuking belter.

i thought hunt was far worse than than steinsson (although steinsson certainly hasnt had the best of seasons)

 

the number of times a winger could come inside him was nothing short of comical.

 

and all this bollocks about him decent crossing a ball, could he fuck!

 

he had a fairly accurate punt upto skd, thats about it.

 

no doubt steinsson, is certainly very suspect positionally, but he gets up and down FAR more than hunt ever did. and is far more committed to the cause than the local boy ever was.

Hunt only ever seemed to do what he was told to by Fat Sam with regards everything

Remember the game with Spurs in the old Div 2 when we won 1-0 and Greaves had a stormer.

 

The guy standing next to me on Manchester Road ridiculed him the whole game because he was growing a beard.

 

Said it was a sign of a lack of personal discipline when I told him to belt up.

 

Suppose having a Ferrari is a couple of steps worse in the no-marks' rankings.

In order, and in my opinion:

 

No worse than Steinsson and certainly not far worse.

 

The number of times the same wingers are now making Steinsson look like a fish out of water is also comical. I think Cahill's ability to cover for GS's inability to defend is a major factor.

 

I have no stats on NH's assists, besides which, NH was employed as a Right Back; not a Wing Back, Half Back or any other Back.

 

And Steinsson has a fairly innaccurate punt up to . . . the other half of the field! There's not much finnesse, when it comes to lumping it upfield, from either of them.

 

Is there no doubt? As has been stated already, NH was RB in a team which got into the top half of the table a few seasons running. GS isn't. As for commitment, I don't think there is anything in it either way. Both are highly paid players who earm more in a week than most could dream of. What's commitment got to do with it?

true and i guess sam didnt want him past the half way line.

i do remember the odd time he did find himself forward, you'd never ever see him busting a gut to get back again.

ok, maybe not far worse, but worse.

 

i dont recall steinsson being ripped apart one-on-one everyweek, maybe od the odd occasions, but the best can do that, thats why they are rated at 20m not 2m.

 

i do recall him being out of position, because he's either asleep at the back post, or got a little excited and got forward when skd loses the ball, leaving himself exposed.

 

commitment and attitude has everything to do with it.

Had hunt's 40yd volley gone in he'd be a cult hero.

 

In reality he was a decent full back for a club of our size.

He is/was a total fucking prick, not as bad a player as people are making out but as a person a cock.

 

At the end of season players do, myself and a few of daubhills finest were in the after party do at the reebok, all the players were there, everyone of them were being dead polite and friendly. At the time NH was seeing peter reids daughter who also there, she is a neighbour of someone i know and i got talking to her about the people we both knew. Mr Hunt decided he had to walk over and stand in between us. I was not 'chatting her up' and we had been talking for 2-3 mins before this happened, a couple of the daubhill beach boys saw this and were all for knocking him out. Miss Reid came over and apologised for him. the whole thing was totally unneeded.

 

A certain goal machine asked what had happened i asked HP if NH was a total prick he laughed and he said in near perfect english 'sometimes i do not understand what people say, but i think the answer if i could would be yes he is a prick'.

 

TReidys daughter dumped him because he spent all day playing on his playstation and talking about his car.

If the highlight of his career at bolton is a volly that nearly went in then discussion ends there I'm afraid!

SR?

I didn't think we were allowed to mention his car?

SR?

 

 

This was when she lived at home (I mean her parents home), and the initials of the person i know are BM.

Tis very true.

Would that not lead to him leaving her?

 

Hunt's latest squeeze is an interesting girl
