Played for one of the best clubs in the world and was given a role with them after his playing career ended. But onwards and upwards.

Fermer Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Loved watching him destroy dons in league cup final. Memories of a great player. Dont know about his coaching so cant comment but seems to me a bit like john kennedy at celts. Career cut short(er) by deliberate malicious tackle from someone who couldnt lace their boots and club looking after him. Will have made his money though! onwards and upwards.

Bit of a major difference between him and Kennedy. The major one being that the tackle didn't end his career. Durrant didn't leave Rangers until 10 years later then had a very productive four year spell at Kilmarnock. 16 of his 20 caps were after the injury.

Shows you how good a player he was before the injury aaid. Never the same again though. Any reasonable person knows that. Had the same injusy myself at 21 and although different levels always had that weakness. Anyway, he's made more money than me !! But he was never the same, that's all.

aaid Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 2 minutes ago, Fermer said: I know. I was highlighting fact that the clubs looked after them. Similarity. It's completely different. Rangers didn't "look after" Durrant. He was out for what 2 years there or thereabouts, played another 150-200 games for the club, then went to Kilmarnock where he played another 100 games. They renewed his contract on more than occasion because they felt he was an asset to the club and they then gave him a job as a coach - five years after he left - because they thought he could do a job. Ive no idea about the ins and outs of John Kennedy at Celtic but I guess after his injury they made him an offer, they would pay up his contract either and he could either walk away or they would give him a chance to start his coaching career. I imagine that at any point since if he didn't look like he was an asset to the coaching set up they would have binned him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What bit? Football is about opinions. Ive watched the tackle countless times. 1. Look on Simpsons face makes me believe it was deliberate. 2. I firmly believe his career was cut shorter. 3. He couldnt lace durrants boots? In my opinion no. Disagreement is all part of fitba' But it's in the past. Only reason it's reared again is because he is in the news today and someone made a bland comment inviting answers. What bit do you disagree on just for opinions sake?

Kennedy was injured playing for Scotland by a Romanian player called Ganea I think. The SFA would have been liable for the contract getting paid up as he was on Scotland duty at the time. So Celtic would not have been out of pocket. It's also obvious that the tackle on both players was deliberate and intended to injure. Argue about it if you want, it won't change the facts.

Split second but I think deliberate in the heat of the moment (Durrant one). Look at Simpsons face and body language. What would a neutral jury think? Jambo's, Hibees etc?

My disputed is about Simpson not being able to lace his boots, you obviously know nothing of Simpsons ability or achievements. 42 minutes ago, RenfrewBlue said: Kennedy was injured playing for Scotland by a Romanian player called Ganea I think.

Really?????? its obviously debatable whether Simpson did it delibarately as people are debating it above. It's an argument I can't really be arsed with, especially with someone as narrow minded as you. Edited June 9, 2016 by vanderark14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
