What are they feeding Dazzling Darren? A 34 year old playing with the energy of 2 x 23 year olds and the experience and smarts of a man twice his age. Brilliant again today.

He's 34? Christ.
Absolutely fantastic, never stopped... Such great workrate, and he's good. A fantastic combo.
The thing is, someone like Tommy Driesen could put all the stats and figures into a database and not have a clue what makes him so important and effective. What he provides goes way beyond passes or goals (though he's had some of those too.)

I thought midway through that second half he looked like he was struggling, and had nothing left in the tank. Then somehow he was just everywhere again.

Reckon his stats must be pretty good as well this. KMs run, tackles made, pass completions etc, all right up there.

Absolute hero.
He's probably needed a rest for about a month or two - Got a rest last week but needs a longer break
Thought he was at the end of his career when he signed for us but he's become a key player with impressive fitness levels. Has helped hold the team together.
He played regularly in that very silky Swansea side . To me he’s been a complete revelation - he’s always been “professional” in the sense that he knows how to do the nasty when necessary but his energy this season has been phenomenal. Hope he can have the odd rest with Field , Cullen and JFC coming back
PWR everything...Beats me why there are fans still waking up to what Pratley offers to the team.
I think we all woke up some time ago but he wasn’t playing well before Christmas last year . In fairness, I think games when we have a lot of possession don’t really suit him now but he’s the first name on the team sheet against teams in the top 8, IMO

Absolutely immense today. And right at the end they break away players are dead on their feet. Who is it chasing back and making the tackle. Dazza.
What a man.
Absolute hero.
He's come back since the Doncaster game as a massive ambassador and integral part of the club.
A player the youngsters can aspire too.
My POTS of months.

Oh Pratley,
He moves like he's Michael Flatley
And he's 34.
Oh Pratley,
He's runs further than Gebrselassie
And he hates Millwall
(Repeat)
He's there
He's every flipping where
Pratley

I assumed he was a journeyman but we're only his fourth permanent club. Clearly been valued wherever he's played.

He really gives his all
And when you ask him who he hates
He fucking hates Millwall!
