| Quote: Egg Chasing "A Leeds fan calling out MM for hitting small players when they had Ryan Bailey and Carl Ablett for years, and then signed Brett Ferres.
I really don`t get this obsession with Bails and Ablett.
Neither could knock the skin off a rice pudding.
They were panto villains at best who would wind up the opposition but were certainly not hard men.
For the players you mention at Leeds I will raise you Tomkins, Bateman, McIllourum, Head high SOL and of course Flower to name a few.
Probably the only thing I would agree with is MM will hit anyone.
The guys a nutter and this is coming from me who has links and supported Queens in the past

That's what he means, thanks for proving his point.
Other Leeds fan calling Mickey mac out for only picking on small players, when he obviously doesnt.
Whilst ignoring the fact that theyve lauded more than their fair share of grubs, wind up merchants, cheap shot exponents of their own.
Most of whom wouldn't stand toe tontoe with Mickey Mac
Tomkins apart, I would back all the others you name to stand up to anyone.

When have any of those ran away from a fight? Bateman would start one in an empty room.
I haven't seen any of the players you have named cheap shot someone and then go and hide behind the nearest half back.

| Bateman loves the push and shove/verbals style confrontation we see nowadays but he does look like he knows he’d get battered if one of the big guys was let loose on him. He’s very aware of what’s going on around him, who is on his team backing him up and the fact that you’re pretty well protected by the rules IMO.
Micky Mac on the other hand=absolute nutter! He looks dead behind his eyes when he gets in that mode he was in on Friday night and anybody who thinks he is a guy who bullies small players is living in a dream land. He’s small himself and throws himself in to anybody with the force he hit Dwyer with. People saying he wouldn’t go toe to toe with big guys, should ask the question why no big guys go toe to toe with him? There is a reason not one Leeds player went after him on Friday and that is because his reputation goes before him. There aren’t many out and out hard men in the game anymore, probably because it’s not allowed but Micky Mac is one. He’s a throwback really and as we’ll see with his upcoming ban, that style isn’t allowed anymore.

How odd. I thought it must have been an elbow into the face or something, the way people were talking.
I don't see why you'd want to do that, in a non-romantic context. He certainly is a charmless individual.

Either I`m missing the point or you are.
I`m referring to you saying we have grubs like Bailey, Ablett and Ferres and have come back with the grubs in my opinion you have/had playing for you.
I`m not for one minute suggesting your players would run away and hide far from it.
In the case of Bailey and Ablett they are nothing but wind up merchants.
No doubt you will think your players are all pretty innocent whilst I disagree each to their own opinion.

You are yes.
Nothing to do with being grubs (when did that Aussie phrase make its way over here) or wind up merchants, the original comment was that MM only picks on the small players which could not be further from the truth nor does he go missing when it kicks off.
