Kid in the Riot Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Neither have yours, you want SC to fail, he isn't, you can't take it There's a big difference between thinking someone may fail vs wanting them to buddy. This is just exactly the type of signing i hoped we wouldn't be making. Hoping the comments I found from the Posh fans are accurate ones and he's a hit here. At 28 though I'd hope we think very carefully before offering him a long term deal even if he does do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, we haven't been crying out for a target man who can hold the ball up and score a few goals, not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So say he scores 8-10 for us come May, and he looks settled and at home with BCFC, don't offer him a permanent deal because he's 28?

BRISTOL86 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 taken from twitter:shit if you want to play good football, perfect for hoofball. Slow and lazy.On his day he looks a quality player, when its not his day then he can be bloody awfulI can't believe my eyes, people want TYRONE BARNETT at their club, hahaha!

You do seem very negative towards Steve Cotterill, is there any particular reason for this? Just out of interest, what will SC need to do in order for you to be positive and also say on I was wrong?

Yeah, noticed that. Obviously, they could sign a new keeper, though no guarantee they'll settle straight away. Basically, I think we need to approach every game positively, Wolves included. They are good, but not world beaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Is Barnett a Cotterill signing or a Burt signing, or does it depend on how he does?

If you applied the logic that you are using then there would be many more examples of garbage players out there. Lets face it Wolves are in the shit largely down to the decisions of their board, not solely because of the players they had at their disposal. I will admit that Johnson is not a model professional, he likes a drink but he is easily a solid Championship defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Lewis Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 You could say this about any striker we sign though, if we signed Thomas would he go straight in the team or would he be on the bench? Same dilemma. Barnett is a decent striker at this level and is certainly more of a goal threat than taylor, if we can bring players who can improve our squad its only a good thing. And Barnett definitely makes it stronger. Oh and Wes Thomas is on the raidar of a few championship clubs, so its a bit unrealistic. Now where have I heard that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus giving large contracts to shite players, Henry, O'Hara, jonhnson, doyle who are all on 40k+ I'll take the majority of wolves fans opinion who have had the pain of watching him for over 2 years over yours whether or not he's a good player Thanks for the debate though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 hink is good with the new fw. We only got SB and Jet, Taylor dont get many games, SB or Jet injuried then we have to put another in. Think Cotteril knows whwats he is doing. Really hope the new player is good.

He's a physical presence up front, and can score goals. 28 or even 29 years of age is fine for any striker on a 2 year contract, look how old Stead is even now.

I don't know why everyone is suddenly obsessed with player age. As you say, 28 or 29 is not old by any stretch for a good player. It's very admirable bringing through young players, but there has to be a balance of youth and experience, and Tyrone Barnett - although might not be everyone's first name on the list for new recruits - has experience at this level. Prolific goalscorer he isn't, but that's not exactly his role. I do think however that we certainly won't be accommodating SB, JET and TB on the same teamsheet, so it'll be interesting to see what gives....or whether Cotterill knows something we don't about where JET will be by the time the month is out.

GrahamC Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Fact is after Baldock and JET no other player has more than 3 league goals this season. An injury to either would surely see several on here querying then why we weren't more proactive in January. Also some seem desperate to find a reason to criticise Cotterill, sadly for them adding a third striker proven at this level who gives us a different dimension isn't it.
