Anthony McGill and Martin Gould aside, he has faced some serious dross. Either that or players who were too young to make an impact or players who were too old to still challenge him. Incredible luck of the draw.

Ha ha. You and Pinkballs are well suited. Two pint-sized little trolls who live on the Net.

Sorry I don't post here very often. It would be good to get to know you better. Do you ever get out of your mum's basement...?

I presume you are called Muppet due to the frequency with which men insert their hands in your anus.

I admire you for your boldness.

Don't be ridiculous - nobody is called Julian in this day and age.

Eastenders-esque plot twist!

No, it's just a really common name amongst women.

I think you’re missing the obvious tbh

Were the likes of Doherty and McManus rubbish as well?
