Me thinks you need to look up the definitions of ridicule and humour.
If you do know Glynne as you are suggesting, then you would know his message wouldn't have been meant that way. It was a humoured response to the suggestion that Voth was put off his game by McMorrow.
Didn't stop him scoring a goal did it? And according to Terry Phillips on his live chat, it didn't stop him going over to the Belfast bench several times for a chat or two. Sounded to me like the referee told them both they would get chucked out if they had another fight. Did McMorrow chase him around the rink for the rest of the game?
Brad is Brad. He won't change his game because of a knuckledragger who gets a couple of shifts a period.
Definitions of ridicule and humour are one thing and both are subjective, how they are interpreted by individuals is something entirely different. My "schoolkid" comment was humour.. but you saw it as insulting to Glynne.. case in point.
Welcome to life off the computer screen.
You claim Voth wasn't put off his game by McMorrow, nor was effected by McMorrow, yet go on to admit Voth felt the need to have a chat on the Belfast Bench on more than one occasion?
Why?
Surely if McMorrow was such an insignificant part of the game there would be no need for a "chat"? Voth would proceed to play his normal game where time and time and time again he's ran the ice in the Odyssey. Last season he was dominant in our rink at time. Last night he wasn't.
Yes he scored because as a player he is vastly superior to McMorrow, which is why I was very surprised he dropped the gloves with him, as Gazza said earlier surely he could have just ignored him and played his normal game, frustrated McMorrow to the point he took a misc? or a dumb penalty? and considering our PK is poor, that would have been more a benefit to Cardiff?
I began in quite the "Anti-McMorrow" camp in Belfast, and still am 75% against his recruitment, but if his actions are going to have this effect against Cardiff in a game I had down as a loss, then I'll give him somewhat of a bye-ball.
Unfortunately I think Cardiff is the only team that will prove effective because unless McMorrow find a bit of speed to catch and hit the likes of Legue, Lambert, Huppe or Berry, then taking on Voth is the only time he'll have a shot of taking on or out a player of greater significance to the team-play than the bench.
