sheff utd were very wound up last night as we would be if you are on the verge of automatic promotion,the guy on the tannoy nearly had a seizure he was so excited ,i think fleck got caught up in it all and it was a brilliant goal (not great defending) so fair play to them. Still think they are a bunch of twats though !!

Kiss the badge, don't celebrate against your former clubs, make that stupid heart sign or point at someone in the sky. Football is becoming so generic and boring - it's not like he flipped the bird or slagged us off in the paper. Would you have not celebrated if he scored an own goal?

I appreciate the realities that for clubs that rely on loanees and journeymen there is a wide gulf between the club loyalties of fans and players, but for me it was a bit sickening to be honest.

Just seen the goals and he still looks fat.

All players should celebrate every goal they score against old teams or not, if players like Clarke didn't celebrate against his ex teams he would never celebrate as he has played for loads.
On Fleck I was glad to see him go he cheated us for years with a lack of effort and worse a lack of basic fitness which meant he never played ninety minutes.

Lots of players have done that this season, not saying he isn't capable of moments of brilliance just a bit hit and miss for me, each to their own I guess.

I see he is one of the three players up for player of the season

Best pipe down until after your stag.
You wouldn't be the first man to spend his week long recovery weeping and scared of life!

It will be interesting. I guy I know knew him from his Glasgow days. Fleck liked a drink and it impacted on his ability which was never in doubt. If he has managed to focus on his career and take care of himself, I think he will do well in the championship once he has adapted to the pace and level. I think that he was under appreciated here which can have an effect. Also, he may have struggled here because of the way he was managed or coached.
I wish him all the best, he was lovely to my boy when he was a mascot and I respect him for that.

I've got no problem with him at all. It's not like he did it right in front of our fans. Jay Bothroyd for example made the effort to jump over the advertising hoardings and then get in the faces of the City fans in the North Stand a few years ago.

Fleck going in itself wasn't a problem, the problem was that his replacement (Gadzhev, somebody with a track record before coming to us) has been a spectacular disappointment.

We have hardly played Gadzhev he must be a hopeless trainer as he never gets a chance in the side.
Players like Armstrong, Murphy, Maddison and Kent who have all gone on to play at a higher level than him this season?
Very good player at this level, no qualms about that, but his lack of leadership, effort and drive after xmas last season was clear to see and a major part in last seasons collapse for me, as club captain and an experienced player he should have dragged that team up

I think you're exaggerating a bit, his midfield partner was more effective.
No doubt he needs that step up. Wish him well, he made things tick for us. But he needs to tone up.

We offloaded Fleck, JOB and Vincelot and I think we would gladly have them all now. While Fleck was offered a huge pay rise the decision to bin the other two made no sense. Their work rate alone would have bagged a few more points.

He's had his chances and blew all of them so at least he's good on blow jobs

This is one of the things wrong with Football for me. Fleck was with us for a year or two, he was just a player, not a club legend, we won't be seeing him in years to come turning up at Legends day.
We were a stepping stone in his career, a paycheck until he could move on to bigger and better things.
Of course he should celebrate against us, it shouldn't matter which club you've previously played for l, if you score, you celebrate. You look after the club and fans currently paying your wages. Football is so fickle.

did he ever kiss his badge for us?
did we win anything for him to kiss his badge. look at Bigi. if he played half as good as he did last week we may not be going into division 4. Bigi had something to kiss his badge for. we gave him a job when no one else wanted him. Fleck - would still be with us if Sisu/Fisher give Mowbray more money to spend in January to improve fading squad. we got Rampage and Henderson. so Fleck left because he could see City badge was not worth it. sheff Utd going up. he made the right choice. he was good for us. he's got better we've got worse
