Not renewing next season, and went today hoping to see Warnock blood some youngsters.
Lambert on the bench.
Whittingham plays (no contract signed).
Manga plays (no contract signed).
Absolutely nothing riding on the game today, and most people seemed to be talking about their upcoming holidays and plans for Easter than the stuff on show.
Decided that, if we're not going to see some kids given a chance, then there is nothing of interest to drag me there for the next few games.
Which kids would you have played?
Maybe some of the ones that people slagged Slade off for not picking.Originally Posted by GRUMPYS DEN
So you don't know!!Maybe some of the ones that people slagged Slade off for not picking.
They must exist because Slade was getting grief for not picking them in the one and only dead rubber last season.So you don't know!!
Harris is the only one seen as good enough at the moment .
Not been since selling Toshack etc..:
But we did win.
Fully agree, fek it - much better ways to spend Saturdays than watching average football
Fabulous news , will you be leaving this board as well ?Fully agree, fek it - much better ways to spend Saturdays than watching average football
Dont't be silly Jimmy, how else will she get any attention other than posing silly fishing posts on here.
TOBW report is titled "City shrug off their lethargy and are now all but safe" which suggests we weren't before. There is still time to blood youth players this season.
I asked the same question today .
Apparently M Harris was going to play alongside Bamba today but that went out of the window when Bamba got injured .
Slade got shot down in flames for not playing youngsters , Slade was trying to save his future in Cardiff
Yeah people like Gringo and TOBW slagged him off something rotten, now you don't get a peep out of them.
I thought most of the players Slade could've played have since been transferred or are out on loan. The promising youngsters we have now are only just getting used to the DVP team, so circumstances are different.
I had no interest in going today.
When Warnock said he could barely be arsed to get out of out bed after I watched that shite versus Fulham in the FA Cup at 11am or whatever.
Ah, you mean the game where Warnock gave a debut to someone young enough to still be playing for the Academy? Someone who has been on the bench for the first team more often than not lately?
I'll be disappointed if Harris isn't given a league debut in the next five games, but, if I'm being honest, I've seen very little from the other younger player who has made the squad in recent weeks, Meite, in his Development team appearances to suggest he is ready for Championship football yet.
Bluebirdman Of Alcathays is correct with his reasoning as to why it's different circumstances from two years ago under Slade, but, as mentioned above, I'll still find it disappointing if Warnock keeps on picking the sort of squads he did yesterday - there is an opportunity to at least get one or two of our youngsters who haven't made the first team squad the chance to experience what it entails.
However, speaking as a fairly endangered species on here (i.e someone who goes to home first team games and still posts on this board about City on a pretty regular basis) and a member of a truly endangered species (i.e. someone who posts on here who goes to most home games at Under 23 and Under 18 levels), I can't say that there is anyone (including Mark Harris) whose performances consistently suggest they would be able to cope with first team football at the moment - that's not meant as a criticism of many who have played for the Under 23s in the second half of the season, because they are only just coming to terms with that having spent nearly all of the time playing for the youth team until then.
Chances are they didn't play because they aren't good enough. If you want to watch youngsters there was a game on at half time. Do people think that sticking them in for a 2 games at the end of the season is going to determine whether they have a good career or not?
They get seen every day in training they can play when they are good enough chances are 1 might be but they should have to deserve a spot in the team Ralls was plugging away for years to do that.
We've been stuck mid table for some time if you start throwing team of kids out there then everyone can just switch off for the reSt of the season
NOT GOOD ENOUGH
Feck me, we've got some fair weather fans amongst us
FYP
That too
I'm not fat.
Gotta say, I've gone right off supporting this club ever since that time TH63 accused some of the fans of being "fair weather".
