Beck

[SODIron]

Given the level we’re currently playing, I would suggest that Beck is without any shadow of a doubt, the worst player to don’ a Scunthorpe United shirt!

[Awaywego]

At the moment i would agree, but he’s got to come good if hes the main striker next season whether we like it or not.

Ian Ormandroyd, that twit from Forest who played one game, Alan O,Meara, Ron Wigg, Damien Henderson, Ian Miller, Dan Gallimore.

But he is right up there.

He actually hit the post today???

Thought it was the bar but I’m just splitting hairs for devilment.

He’ll be gone before then. Two games in a row he’s missed absolute sitters. Complete and utter donkey.

He’s definitely up there. Beck reminds me of a young striker we signed years ago called Matt Bailey on loan from Stockport who later on in his career became a CB. To be fair Beck reminds me of him and believe me, that’s not a good thing. Bailey was so bad he’s been etched in my mind all these years.

Beck is shocking. Those two misses in the last two matches are right up there with the worst I’ve seen from any United player.

From Jerry on the Cults page. I think that’s fair. It wasn’t such a terrible miss.

‘It seems that Beck has become a target from some of the supporters along with the manager. Beck’s confidence must be at an all time low and with so called supporters slagging him off how is his confidence going to grow.’

[WonderGoals]

Tongue firmly planted in cheek there Deerey. I’m sure the fact he’s missed two absolute sitters in back to back matches and genuinely looking poor since his arrival has nothing to do with people having serious doubts about him.

You’re right jerry, he’s been unfairly targeted. I quite easily list all the mistakes Butler’s made, which I have no doubt could fill a sheet of A4 paper. I’d rather not even go there.

Was Jerry drunk when he posted that response or was he actually being serious ?

Jerry does not talk like that if you really know him, he thinks the same as we do, but can’t say it due to being a volunteer at the club.

This is posted to deflect away from Becks signing. Who spotted him, who wanted him, why play him, how much is he on and how much did he cost?

Can we get rid and recoup money or write it off as a learning curve?

[Iron-awe]

From what is said on this forum about the ” Cults page ” seems like quite a few on it have learning curves of their own.

Just posting a photo of a goal… @Beck – this is a goal, your job description requires you to put the ball between the posts and underneath the bar!

Confidence is completely shot. When he breaks his duck, he’s going on a scoring streak. I tells ye!

He wouldn’t score in a gratis Wild West whore house.

yes agree and hopefully same goes for Charlton Ubu

[64]

it wasn’t that bad a miss to be fair to him. I’d also point out that many many games were awful with the Shithouse up front,and he improved us yesterday. Also before he joined we did seem to be in an unstoppable slide which has been halted. I’m not saying he’s great ,he’s not from what I’ve seen but it’s not as bad as I saw from an Arsenal player last week

[Deereyme66]

Fair and reasonable

[64]

Also didn’t Fitz spill it twice?

[Deereyme66]

Saw this from Fred Benson on the Facebook group and concur:

‘Confidence is clearly at a low for our strikers, but we need to support them and it will get better! One goal, they just need one goal to get going’.

Mark ‘maladroit’ Beck – Banjo turns 30 on 2nd Feb. His bday won’t be spoiled as we’ve no game that weekend.

Tuesday 4th Feb sees us ‘entertain’ Jimbob’s tulips.
If he scores, would it count as a ‘real’ goal?

I’d send the lad out on loan to build his confidence – we need players who are firing on all cylinders in our ‘attempt’ to extricate ourselves from this leperous league.

” leperous league” eh, well we do play like a bit dropped off sometimes.

This is one of the most tragic signings I have ever seen at the Iron.

Can’t head, can’t shoot, can’t tackle, can’t stay on his feet.

Absolutely tragic.

95 days remaining of the regular season.
Today’s his 67th day as an Iron player.
Mid point will be day 81 – Feb 4th.
Will he score his first goal against Jimbob’s Tulips on the 4th?

[Deereyme66]

Tbf, his minutes are very limited lately. I’m sure some wit has something to say about that.

[Awaywego]

Michelle and the board should.

[CMC]

Thoughts are with Rene this evening

[Deereyme66]

Delighted for Beck, as I’m sure everyone is. Hopefully he pushes on from here with some confidence.

“Where were you when Banjo scored” Only just trickled in but in it went, got a great reception from all the players, well pleased for him that’s the monkey off his back, now for Uzbekistan to score.
