Z175 He has got a bit of everything but a lot of players who are like that early in their careers end up with not a lot of anything.

Personally I think his best position is as a striker but is distain for passing to his teammates is terrible. You could accept it from Nicky Forster with his goalscoring record (although he normally preferred to dribble it out of play that pass it to a teammate) but from a player with no goalscoring record like Blackman in a struggling side it looks very contemptous. If I was Clarke I would hold a half way line shooting session in the stadium and put Blackman in the South stand on ball boy duty and make him collect everyone's undoubtably wayward attempts.


Ah, the old Forster is greedy argument. Sadly for you he had an excellent record for assists too. So your case is a tad weak. On that basis I am out and will not listen to any of the rest of your discussion.

haha well before I take such drastic action... I didn't say anything about Forster's assists record and to use an extreme comparison I reckon Garath Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo probably have a lot of assists too and I would argue they are both selfish players and rightly so!

I think you are reiterating my point. When you set up (and of course score) that many goals who is going to get upset with you for being selfish. Nicky Forster was entitled to be. Nicky Blackman really isn't...

Of course the greatest assist Nicky Forster ever provided to a teammate was to Darren Caskey...

I like him although I acknowledge he hasn't been great for us. He's played in plenty of different positions too.
As for his celebration at Derby I don't blame him to be honest.

Having seen the brief highlights of the Colchester game, he seems to be getting into good positions. Maybe if he can convert a chance he'll get confidence and take off...

Yeh, looked like he did well for the early miss and was unlucky when he hit the bar.

He clearly doesn't like any form of Criticism, he blocked Pepe and I on twitter. All I called him was a ball greedy tw*t

As posted elsewhere have never been his greatest fan BUT he really put a shift in on Tuesday, full of running, tackling back and involved throughout the game - thought I had mixed him up with Williams on a couple of occasions and was close to being our best player on the night :o
