Chris Rigg is football Jesus

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

A few on the match thread digging him out and wanting him hauled off.

6 mentions alone in the first half

That goal was something else. Improvisation in split seconds. Can't teach that. Awesome.

Rigg has 3 goals in his last 6 games.

He could get double figures this season.

Both our wingers scored tonight. That is why Roberts should remain on the bench on Saturday.

Now that you’ve slept on it, are you sure about that?

Sadly there is still a contingent of fans who want all players to be big meat hairy boys who perspire a lot, pump their fists, bulge their eyes and holler 'cmon' every five minutes as being the epitome of what they believe football is all about.
Having a player of Rigg's quality and class in our side is akin ( to these fans ) to giving a toothless demented octogenerian a 5 star Gordon Ramsay prepared meal when all they are used to is pureed pumpkin.
the same people want to see Browne play every game and drop Rigg.

Absolutely. Rigg will score more before Christmas than Roberts has in the last 3 seasons.

The Athletic have named him one of four players in the Championship destined for the Premier League. Dolan, Esse and Trafford (again) are the other 3.

He’s destined for much much more than that

Read the title and thought he had recovered for the Stoke game on Sunday

For me, he's a generational talent.

Let's hope this injury isn't as bad as some fear

Resurrection is Easter unfortunately mate

Needs to put his healing hands to good use then.

Gonna be riots when the mags buy him

Some of the posts on the match thread are so stupid they should be arrestable offences

Can't be - it was Mayenda who was getting crucified after the last game.

“Big meat hairy boys” might be my favourite quote of 2024
