he ran at them to an extent,

but it wasn;t the same style as Huckerby, he wouldn;t get the ball out wide and beat three or four defenders about 6/7 times every match - laying on 3/4 great chances, match after match.

Bellars obviously ran at players but usually to get a shot off himself and certainly didn't do it as instinctively as Hucks. Probably hte mark of a better player, but Hucks' h'headless chicken' approach was the most lethal approach in the 2003/4 season .

        Not the same style as Hucks. No you're right - Bellars beat them more than 30% of the time (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Sep 21, 15:17:31
