Talent in abundance no doubt but, his intellect is questionable. And he thinks himself that this is what holds him back. So, if he feels that he's not getting "loved" or "appreciated" by the club then that reflects down on his confidence and attitude. He states in the interview that if he is not liked then he won't pull his weight and this has all transformed into his personal life where off field problems have followed him around. Talent is not enough for Tomlin. His mental deficiencies do directly affect how he reacts to his on field activity and, if its against him you won't get the 100% from him. That seems to be the case with Tomlin and Cardiff City. Needs to be cuddled in cotton wool rather than work at his game. A career going nowhere fast And now they’re Posing the q is Bobby Reid the new Tomlin !!! http://www.cardiffcityforum.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=2&start=240 pull his weight, now that's asking a lot!!

Davefevs Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 4 hours ago, Swede said: There is no doubt that both Tomlin & JET had ability but wasted talent? Possibly just about agree. I think JET had talent in abundance, he had a languid, effortless style and a really likeable character. With all of the money thrown around in football I suspect this has had an effect on his career trajectory. I am sure if he needed the incentive he would be busting a gut to keep playing at League level, sadly that doesn't seem to be the case. Tomlin on the other hand has plenty of talent but too much baggage and certainly doesn't come across as being a popular member of the team. Quite ironic really as its "being liked" seems to be what he yearns. Perhaps a testament of their popularity would be when they have come back and played as an opposition player, Tomlin was vilified and JET was well received [just like Derrick Williams recently] Very sad really and yes, JET can take a penalty. Probably the best penalty taker I have ever seen for Bristol City. I will always defend JET. I do think his body just made it harder and harder to stay fit enough to cope with the demands of professional football as he got older. Of course you might argue “did he try hard enough to attain the level of fitness”, which is a fair point. However, having had a very good opening season in 13/14, he played a bit part in 14/15, but never seemed to be disruptive. It almost seemed a bit if a relief that he didn’t have to play 40+ games a season. It would’ve been so easy for him to become a bad Apple, getting 2 minutes a game most weeks, but he didn’t let us down at all when both Alby and Agard were injured and he partnered Matt Smith. ....and of course THAT goal. Thanks JET. Tomlin, I’ve written enough about. Thanks for the goal v Wednesday, one of the best I've seen at the gate, thanks for helping avoid relegation. But you took the piss in 16/17 season, not just playing wise, but out of a lot of fans too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think he's the type of person that gets bored quickly and needs someone new to tell him how good he is. Which is fine I suppose whilst earning thousands at the mo, a disaster waiting to happen when he retires I reckon. And to be honest I couldn't care less. Until Tammy came along that is… LT couldn't cope with playing second fiddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 Whilst I'm enjoying our gloating, it's also worth acknowledging that he showed some glimpses of genius the likes of which none of our current squad are capable of.

Maybe if LJ just let him rot in the U23 we would never of got shot of him to Cardiff? Warnock's approach has left him with a player that can't play and he can't offload.

Northern Red Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 He might be earning a load of money, however he appears to be genuinely not very bright at all, nor willing to listen to advice from those who know better, which leads me to think that it really wouldn't take much for him to blow the whole lot once he retires.

Lanterne Rouge Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 The bloke`s a class A dick and will never change. I can see why we signed him and basically the club were damned if they did and damned if they didn`t. If we hadn`t taken him on LJ, SL & co would have been accused of lacking ambition, not being able to manage big egos, not being prepared to push the boat out, not wanting promotion etc. etc. It`s proved to me that if Warnock can`t get anything out of the fat git he`s a lost cause, whatever you think of NW he can usually get some sort of value out of players like him so if even he`s given up then there`s really no hope. Best bit of business we did in the Summer of 2017 was shipping the poisonous knob out - particularly if all the rumours about bullying of younger players had any truth to them It tells you a lot that none of the players wished him well on social media when he left, they just totally blanked him.

I think that is what he was probably doing, until that Preston game. By that stage it became a choice between: continue with this approach and be relegated, or be done with Tomlin and save the team and the season. After Preston that April, there were 6 games left and we were 21st and one point above the drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Watts Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 22 hours ago, MarcusX said: He's not quite doing nothing though is he? I bet he's still expected to train daily and has to play for the under 23's whilst probably doing other contractual "work", PR etc. I get it, they live a lavish lifestyle and get paid handsomely but its not really "doing nothing". He'll be training on his own I would expect. And not putting a lot of effort in to boot. I mean, would you really want him showing the kids how to act as a pro. The same goes for PR....there's not a chance in hell they'd make him do PR work. He really wouldn't do a hell of a lot for public relations. So realistically, he's being paid handsomely for half arsedly trying to keep fit and playing a few non-competitive footy matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
