Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Not sure how I feel about this one
But wouldn’t be a transfer window without a Bristol switch

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Some things never change - even under Morison.
This doesn’t particularly excite me - not sure why.

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
meh, but lets see what he can do

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
In the right setup, this could be an astute signing.
The boys got a good left peg and engine

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Wurzels fans already finding this hilarious

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Dont know what his assists stats are like, but his goal scoring stats are especially poor for an attacking player.

1st reply to the link on OTIS
Good luck to whoever signs him, more like.
Unless it's Cardiff, there's no wishing them anything but the very worst.
160 games in 6 years shows he must offer something
another post from that OTIS thread, obviously before he signed for us
Players do come and go, however do remember that they are no different than you or I and have feelings etc.
Callum was amazing when he met my son, giving him so much time and encouraging him to pursue a dream of playing football.
Last week was mental health week, and mayn don't know some of the injuries that Callum has faced as he is quite a private person.
Many may say he should/could have delivered more, but I will say this - from what I saw, he gave his all and both he, and his family cared deeply about this club. He also did a lot in the community that was unnoticed and unreported, and represented Bristol City as a professional at all times.
Good luck Callum and I for one hope you go on to achieve more in your career.
Welcome Callum :thumbup: sounds like a decent lad

Bristol had a year option that they didn't take up, but then he had barely played this season so not a surprise really

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
I think it’s only correct that he’s written off before he’s been sized up for his training kit.

I'm sure he's a nice guy, and I hope the move works out for him and us, but the opinion held by all the Bristol City fans I know is that he's underachieved for them, drifts out of games too often and is injury-prone.
Maybe he needs a change.

Didn’t he fall out with the manager halfway through the season.

It played since January, only 7 full games last season. A downgrade on Vaulks or Bacuna or even Pack?

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Explaining his reasons for releasing O’Dowda, ex-Leicester boss Pearson was tight-lipped however, simply saying “It’s just time for a change.”
“I think Callum has been here for six years. He goes with our best wishes. He is a really good lad, but it’s time for change.
“It’s time for a shift in a different direction. It’s as simple as that.”

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Appears to be a squad signing but not convinced with this one at all. Struggled with injuries of late which is concerning, albeit no where near on par with Cardiff's own Vassell. But less than 40 appearances in the last 2 seasons does not help to make a good impression on a new fan base.
Statistically as well he is lacking with a handful of goals and assists. Plus only 160 Championship appearances in 6 seasons, 95 of which he was in the starting 11, which indicates that he only started in roughly third of the games played by Bristol over that period. Again this doesn't help to make a good impression of what O'Dowda can bring to Cardiff.
All the best to him when he throws on the City shirt, not every player Cardiff sign are going to be pleasing from a statistical standpoint, so with that in mind can anyone help to dispell my underwhelming reaction to this latest signing?

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Good luck to him but I really hope the next few signings are a lot more exciting than this. Otherwise it’s going to be a long season.
Is Jed Wallace back from his honeymoon?

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
If Morison can get Bagan to score 3 in 3, surely he can squeeze more out of O'Dowda...:thumbup:

Re: Callum O Dowda signed from Brizzle.
Not impressed by his stats over the past 6 years.....and he's given a 3 year contract??! Underwhelmed by this one.

He must be as cheap as chips, or Morison thinks that he can revitalise him and make him a player. Which option do you reckon :hehe:

Morison said he brings goals and can create goals, which surprised me as he’s usually very analytical with his statistics and the stats say otherwise. Averages 1 goal and 1 assist a season.
