Title: James Coppinger
Post by: muff licker on March 23, 2010, 01:01:45 pm

Is it his 250th League Appearence for DRFC this evening if he plays?? If it is, well done Copps, a great servant (although sometimes infuriating) and maybe just maybe he will score a 95th minute winner against his beloved Toon...!!!

Here's hoping. I like Copps but as you say he is infurating at times. His performance at St James Park was not great,neither were his 2 performances against his home town club Middlesbrough. Hopefully he's on song tonight because if he is then Rovers usually are.

According to Wiki - its his 210th for us - and his 316 domestic league game!  

If it is his 250th then what a way to celebrate - a goal against his first club!!!

Agreed. When he's on song or the system is set for him, then we look awesome. I feel he's fast becoming a legend for us and one of my favourite players under SOD. A great servant and he's had/having his best years with DRFC.
