Sorry for the ignorance but is it Russe as in Bus, Russe as in Moose, Russe as in Fussy or something else ? I hope it's Russe as in bus. When he went off the fans were chanting Russe as in Roos and it sounded like he was being booed off. He had a very assured game for his debut. I was really confused by that. I just assumed it was Russe as in bus or as in the boy's name "Russ" short for Russell.

Well played on Saturday Luke. You will get used to the irony on the forum

Really well done for Luke. I seem to remember reading that he was released by the Sh*t as he was too small and we came in for him. Luke said he has been with us since he was 10. Did the Sh1t really release a 10 year old because they thought he was too small? F##k me!

Gheorghe Hagi, Pavel Nedved, Juninho, Alvin Bubb. Alan Ball,Nobby Stiles,David Hillier,Marty Taylor. Hagi also had size 4 feet. I think being short could be distinct advantage in some respects, centre of balance, dribbling, etc.

Definitely Russe as in bus. I played footy with his father many years ago. Set up many goals for him. Hang on Bobby Gould scouted you and said you were clueless😂 I had skill, pace and great vision. Sadly no commitment.

He signed professional terms the same time as Russe. Maybe someone got crossed wires, as I agree, I don't think any club would release a 10 year old due being too small.

If I remember rightly; their fathers withdrew them from the 82'rs youth set up because they were not getting on as well as it was envisanged they would. Brought them to the Gas and Robert is your Mother/Fathers sibling; or some sh*t like that

Certainly not saying anything about the parents here, because I don't know the details, but you have to feel 10 year old kids should be enjoying themselves and not being coached into 'footballing superstars' at that age.
it doesn't seem much different to the pushy mums and beauty pageant kids and the like.
bit depressing to think 10 year old kids are expected to push on be it from parents and/or clubs

I seem to recall it was more about opportunities than being pushed; that was certainly the impression I got in the article by Lewis Ellingtons father. Who as it happens works for Patersons just down (or up as the case may be)the road from the sh*t.

Sorry for the ignorance but is it Russe as in Bus, Russe as in Moose, Russe as in Fussy or something else ? Very good question, I've been thinking about this myself.... I think it's simply pronounced "Russe".
