headhunter Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Been at the club now for 18 months and was 19 in January. Season started well for him last year and there was that goal vs Watford. Since then nothing other than an indifferent loan spell at Cheltenham. Not rated by Johnson Snr or Jnr.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon79 Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Fairly common for most 19 year olds I would say. Would say another loan is a definite for him. Needs game time & more experience of League football imo. Would also say the choice of loan club is really important, have to play the right way imo for someone like Hinds.

JoeAman08 Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Also not a big lad so lower league loans may not be the best as he may not feature. I’d try and get him somewhere in the conference if I am honest where maybe his ability will outweigh his limitations strenth wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COYR Yes game time is all important, don't need another Cheltenham experience for him where he hardly got a look in. Judging by his performances in the early rounds of the league cup, he has something about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Don't ship him out somewhere until we've played Plymouth in the League Cup. I'm sure those Janners will be happy to see him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 he needs to drop down to the conference and play mens football every week, I'd loan him to someone like Barnet or Orient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claverham_Red Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 He had a car accident didn't he? https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bristol-city-youngster-freddie-hinds-936514 Thankfully he didn't sustain any injuries but that must have knocked him back mid season. Fingers crossed he can get a decent loan spell again, perhaps start afresh in the National League? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Get him a loan somewhere he's likely to get regular football whether football league or conference, he needs to be playing regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 I've been impressed with Hinds the few times I've seen him play. Big shout after the the little I've seen of him, but I think he's going to be a very good player. Unless we're planning to play him often next season, which I don't think we are, I wouldn't even play him in the early round cup game/s for us. Last year, January - May was wasted for him because he played for us as well as Cheltenham so couldn't join anybody else. I'd send him out on loan until January, then once he's back, decide upon his move for the rest of the season. I'd attempt to find a league two club first, perhaps Newport/Forest Green/Yeovil. But also Solihull Moors had a couple of ours last year, that could be a good option. Edwards didn't play much there but O'Learys loan was a successful one.

Bar BS3 Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 He needs to go and see what the other side of football is like. Away from the glitz of Ashton gate, surrounded by wealthy footballers, the pressure of big crowds etc. He needs to go somewhere where he’s a big fish, where he can see what could come of his career, if he doesn’t knuckle down and kick on. Somewhere with horrible facilities, low paid players who have been signed on free transfers, low crowds, no ambition etc. Maybe a club not too far from here, so we can keep tabs on him and he can train with us sometimes. Any ideas on who such a bad example of a football club could be..?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a good move for him. Close to where we can keep an eye on him. And I could see him more. Just up the road from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to go out to a decent footballing side where he can get opportunities to bang in a few goals. So not Swindle or the Gas. I want to see him succeed but not scoring freely for those bunch of numpties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, as Stockley is very important to the way that they play. They have played a more direct style than before which usually requires a target man up front.

Dastardly and Muttley Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Send him to Maidenhead. Hour and a half down the road, proper little club and I’d get to see him most weeks. I’ll keep an eye on him for Tinman, or buy BT a drink if he insists on coming himself! Anyone wants to help link it up, I have a contact with the Maidenhead chairman who has the fantastic name Pete Griffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
