cummins17 Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 So if Flint actually ends up staying, what would you do? Do you see LJ completely keeping him out of the picture? Would you drop one of Wright or Baker to accommodate Flint back in the team? Or would you move to three centre backs to fit Flint back in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Would depend how those in position perform, centre back is far from our major problem areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Easy for me. Drop Bailey Wright. I would do all I could to keep Flint at the club. Not sure he would want to stay or LJ would be for that mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivorguy Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 If Flint stays, fine him two months salary, train and play him in the u 23s, and hope we can offload in next window. Alternately, sack LJ and give Flint a clean slate with new Head Coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Has he done something wrong? Can't fine him and act in that manner for no reason. So what's he done wrong exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't done nothing wrong,so unless someone pays what we want then we won't sell him or play him for the rest of his contract,only us hey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivorguy Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 What he has done wrong is not give 100% to the club who is paying him and for whom he only recently signed a new contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he can't be faulted for today's display (apart from when in the first half Steve Morison absolutely rinsed him for pace) Bailey Wright is so bad. In my opinion he's not championship quality. Not sure why he's captain either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allyolly Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 I heard that Flint was training with the U23s this morning. Sounds like he's a long way off being in contention for a first team place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More mind games I expect, trying to force Flint into a decision. Against Plymouth it was all done behind doors, now LJ is making it public to force flints hand.

I've paid massive money on season tickets for me and my crew and this was too early for this type of performance.

Midfield is so weak and will continue to be a big problem unless it's addressed. Hate to say it but I would move Korey on now. Not the same player and no longer up to it unfortunately. still don't rate BW though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are much better with Wright and baker. some fans need to get over flint is the be all and end all , he's not. Those two are much better defenders imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
