Ronan Curtis joins
- Thread starter HartleyGreen
- Start date
My impressions of Curtis whenever we went up against him was that he had more confidence than his ability afforded. I was always concerned by him though as he is definitely a player who has moments in him.
His stats against us are really good (IIRC he was the one who took the ball from Kelland Watts to rescue a last minute draw) which given our games against them during his time there were generally big and high profile for the level suggests he's thrives under pressure.
Funnily enough a similar line from a Pompey mate:
‘Not bad but was never popular with fans. Thought he was better than he was, I think’
Much like Pompey fans then.

OK cheersI'm sure the club will be able to confirm if they are monitoring PASOTI.
Very much doubt club will comment on it
I think at this level, a solid signing.
I think an ACL would still impact on the body, but his game wasn’t about pace.
Watching Argyle currently, how many times do we see bad passes? How many poor final crosses into the box?
Argyle have missed an outlet on that left hand side since Bali’s poor form. If we are keeping Dale on loan too, that gives us natural width in those positions. Suddenly, you aren’t putting Sorinola in this positions to do a job.
This was the type of signing l expected in the summer. Experience, a gamble because of injuries, but has proven he can play at this level.
I’d like to see Mumba given a go now on the right side. That’s obviously if he stays.

Check the highlights from his last game PV's 5-1 win against Blackpool, Curtis scored the 5th goal.
Cobi, you posted this on page 5 and there hadn't been one negative opinion on him. Even Oldage, the most pessimist of pessimists, says it's an excellent signing. We're now on page 9 and there's only been the one negative comment so I think you'll find the fans are happy with this signing.
There was a lot of negativity when he was first rumoured. People tend to get on board more when a player is confirmed. For me, this is the profile of player we should have been looking at in the summer, glad that lessons are being learnt. Fair play to Derek.
We need width, especially left midfield position.
I don’t think anybody thinks he is a world beater. Most of us have seen him play against us. He was hard working and you look at our current output this season in that area and we are struggling. We wanted experience, especially someone who has played at this level.
I can’t see why anyone wouldn’t be pleased. He isn’t going to get pulses racing but what he brings is an improvement to our squad in an area we serverly lacked.
That is my memory as well, you always had to be concerned about him because he was always involved but his conversion rate of passes and chances didn't match the window dressing...also he was a colossal wind up merchant. Wonder if he still has about him, sounds like it from the interview. If selected the Exeter game will be interesting if he goes full pantomime villain.
The type of player than can occupy the opposition defence. That will buy us another second or 2 on the ball at times.
Perhaps he chose the wrong 'port' yet again! It is the biggest naval port in Western Europe that counts for real success
