As I posted last night he is on his way over as we speak.
Disappointed it hasn't worked out for the lad, but hopefully this will free up wages for another striker.

Hope this isn't true.
He hasn't worked out but he's a reasonable quality player who can score the dd goal unlike Rhodes who's a washed out player Sheffield Wednesday had to replace with Callum Patterson.
McCarthy looks set to fill the team up with washed up players that once did a job for him.
Then if he leaves in the summer, we’ll have another costly rebuild.
On the other hand, if he stays, then we can look forward to another season of Clogball.
Being a Cardiff City fan really is out there!
You are joking right?Quote:

I’m sorry that it hasn’t worked out for him here but he isn’t up to it as Moore has shown.
We have Harris and the striker from Crawley.Quote:

Injury and lack of experience make them inadequate back up for Moore. Lose him we are scupperedQuote:

Forward Robert Glatzel has today joined Bundesliga side 1. FSV Mainz 05 on loan for the remainder of the 2020/21 campaign.
Glatzel has scored eleven goals in all competitions for the Bluebirds since joining from 1. FC Heidenheim in August 2019.
We'd like to wish Robert all the very best of luck while away from CCS.
and right on cue, it's official
well im gutted...
its just a loan :tumbleweed:
It was odd watching Zohore on Saturday - him and Glatzel are very similar. Every now and then they pull off a brilliant strike, and you think "Yes, this is it, he's going to be great", but it doesn't last long, and soon you're cursing him again. Zohore = Glatzel.
All promise, but no delivery.
To be fair Zohore had a period where he was a serious threat , power , pace and a great shot.Quote:

Zohore we did get a big fee for. Glatzel we will be lucky to get a small fee.
Zohore looked terrible Saturday though.
Zohore had a period where he was completely unplayable, Glatzel has been quite easy to play againstQuote:

Took a bit of stick after that decent spell of results ended and he seemed to be made an escaped goat of.
If Mick can somehow get a bit more than NH from our MF in the way of some kind of service, he should bag a few and ease the pressure.
Glatzel has another year left. I hope he absolutely bangs them in and they want to sign him.Quote:

Our best players like Wilson, Hoilett even Kieffer himself struggle if their teammates are playing poorly or off form.
God knows we've had our fair share of those this season.
I thought he might be a bit better then that based on those few games playing alongside Moore, but he's probably just a discount Gavin Whyte.Quote:

Has he though? What does he actually do well?Quote:

Seems to be doing OK with Hull.
Run the channels, score for one. Whyte has done the square root of sod all for us going forwards.Quote:

I'm hoping that Watters gets a run of games playing up front with Moore.
