    I wouldn't be surprised if the players have a bag of 10 pasties from Greggs before they play!
    Malky's Championship signings were absolutely spot on. Warnock's cheap signings have been arguably better. Whenever we've spent big money, our return has been limited shall we say.

    There is precious little value in keeping an asset like Bobby Reid when the manager is determined not to play him to his strengths or play him at all. The board have made their decision to give Warnock another season so provided any money was immediately re-invested in a quality replacement who could fit into a Warnock team it might make sense. My concern would be I have little faith in Warnock and the so-called transfer committee spending the money wisely.

    Yep at least Malky had his dossier of players and Jones always seemed to get good players in.

    This signings the last 2 years have been strange at best even with a few decent players coming in.

    Malky's dossier took some hits (and rightly so) but we got Conway, Cowie, Taylor and Gunnar for free in 2011. Plus paying small fees for Turner, Miller, Mason and Harris. That was probably the best summer the club's ever had!

    Mutch, Connolly, Noone, Campbell and Kimbo all came in the year after. We signed Velikonja that summer too so it was more of a mixed bag .

    Maybe his sale in the MLS team is due to something other than concentrating on Cardiff city as was stated at the time.

    If Bobby Reid is sold without any significant replacement, then you have to wonder why a manager supposedly in the last year with the club would consider sanctioning such a move.
    Warnock doesn't rate him that's plain to see!

    I agree with this, Warnock doesn't seem to rate him as a player and can't fit him in, let him go by all means, but sign a quality player that can fit into the team, not just Vassell who is a massive risk due to injury!

    Why spend £10 million on a player he doesn't rate? Is he actually just a huge Bristol City fan? That's £15 million we've chucked them for 2 players our manager doesn't rate.

    I don't understand this way of thinking. If he doesn't rate him we should be questioning the manager not giving him more funds to spunk up the wall on another useless lump of shit like Madine

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    How many players has Warnock signed that he doesn't rate?

    Cunningham
    Madine
    Tomlin
    Reid
    Murphy
    Ward

    Especially when this is Warnock's last year. I could just about stomach it if we were going to get a few centre mids in but with 3 in the squad so far, we're clearly not going up so to go even more "Warnock" is just stupid when we're some way off being a promotion challenger.

    Smithies. Who's being linked with Forest today. Talking of Forest and goalkeepers, they currently have 5. Which is impressive.

    And how many of those did he describe as his "number one target" at the time of signing?

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    I'm hoping this is just bullshit but if ccfcwelshlad says he's for sale at the right price then I believe him. If that is the case then Warnock's going to plummet in my estimations because Reid's quality and he's not getting the best out of him, and robbing us of a good player for when Warnock leaves in a year

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    If Vassell does come in I’ll judge him on how he performs for us and won’t have any premeditated opinions on him, he could work well with a big striker to play off, got no idea, my issue was if it was Reid out him in.

    I’m baffled by the amount of players we have that he can’t make use of, why do we sign them?

    Even at amateur league level managers either get in players that fit their style, or change their style to suit the players they have, I’m not sure what Warnock is doing.

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    More than one club interested in Reid. Not sure it will be Bristol that he ends up at. Which at least lets us laugh at the Wurzels... right?

  21. #196

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    I'd have thought that the club would have denied this by now. It'd be close to a red shirt situation if it were true.

    I think that's a bit dramatic

    Re: Updated: Isaac Vassell in - Bobby Reid out?

    So, Reid out and the guy from Le Havre and Vasell in. Doesn't strike me as great business!

    Rumours rumours rumours
    We’ve always conducted our transfer business close to our chest
    Let’s not have a Corporal Jones moment before we hear from official sources
    Then we can have a flap if the situation calls for it
