Souness: "I have to say Titus has to have a close look at himself. Why he's gone to make that challenge at that time - I will be asking him about that on Monday."
Titus Bramble has a neck like Mike Tyson, can move as fast as a greyhound out of the traps, and - on his day - can be as good as Jonathan Woodgate. But there is a period in EVERY match when you wonder if the defender would get a game for "The Old Bull And Bush" Sunday League team.
The closest I can say I have ever seen in a Toon shirt is Kevin Scott. That lad was never the fastest, but he had days when he held the back-line together like glue. Other days he would give away a penalty when HE was the one with the ball!
Will Titus ever change? Like Scotty, I cannot see it. They say "mistakes show character" ... and both of them lads have character to give away!
