Colinjb Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 What non league level is Thurrock? Last year they finished 20th in the Conference South.

Colinjb Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 There is no way he's good enough for conference south. He's regularly been embarassed playing Eastleigh and looks miles off their level. I'd put him a long way below that league. I don't think he's even semi-pro standard. The question therefore begs, how did he make into the Spurs youth set up in the first place? How drunk was their Scout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A proper 3rd choice keeper? Forecast was/is no-where near as bad as many on here make out - he's probably on a lot more money than most 3rd choice keepers should be on, but that's hardly his fault.

Mr saint Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 In terms of his rare on field performances, what has Forecast done so badly that everybody hates?-wasn't he an England U21 international at one point (I may have dreamt that actually?), so he most have some talent? The circumstances in which he arrived here are hardly his fault. OK, he's 3rd choice keeper and no many people have actually seen him play, but surely thats the same with all 3rd choice keepers isn't it? People didn't seem to hate Michael Poke (for example) as much, did they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokingFun Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 He earns over 200k a year for tricking people into believing he's a footballer. That's before being an arrogant ***** and starting on saints fans while out. Don't feel sorry for him. I really don't understand your feelings about this guy. Is it his fault that he got offered a stupidly long and lucrative contract and is sitting out his time with no chance of playing or is it the fault of the idiots we had in charge at the time offering it? If I was him I would rather secure mine and my family's financial future and stay put than take a huge pay cut just for a game of football (which is what he would be doing elsewhere). Some of you really should reverse the situation and think about it more logically. Whether he is crap or not is immaterial. The guy is simply seeing out his contract and there is no evidence to suggest he is a trouble maker or doesn't train well enough. I don't see a problem with that.

I think for most people it has something to do with the fact he lamped some girl in a bar in town for no other reason that some lads were heckling him (and rightly so). Arrogant Pr**k!

I have had the misfortune of seeing him play on more than one occasion, and he is worse than terrible. He is so bad there aren't words to describe it. I've seen him play and he didn't look that bad - what have you been expecting to see from a 3rd choice keeper for a third division side for the last couple of years? Also all the stories about him "hitting a girl because some lads heckled him" - yeah I'm sure that's true, bet he's been arrested for it as well? Whereas Barnard is still lauded as a hero by many on here? I couldn't care less about Forecast, he might be a bit of a knob, probably gets paid a bit more than he should and obviously isn't exactly the best keeper in the world, but why do we have to have a thread about him each week on here?

Gambol2K9 Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 People dont hate him cos he's ****e, they hate him cos he's a complete cock. I've witnessed first hand his attitude towards fans, believe me he's a parasite. Dont you think its odd he's been loaned out for a month to a non league side? Its not like Thurrock would have come to a Championship club and requested a keeper, smacks of a punishment to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince Jazzbo Posted 11 August, 2011 Share Posted 11 August, 2011 I'd rather have Fatty Foukes in goal than him, and he died in 1916! Seriously though. The son of a family friend (who knows nothing about football or saints) was out in town at the Club next to Town Quay. He said that there was a bloke who was behaving obnoxiously, insulting bar staff, trying to help himself to drinks behind the bar, arguing with people left right and centre, and even saying things like 'Dont you know who I am, I play for saints' etc. It was only when the lad I know, asked someone who he was, they said it was Tommy Forecast. At that time it meant nothing to him, and he just happen to mention it to me a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
