RoystonFoote'snephew Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Excellent. Certainly seems to be in City’s future plans down the line. Loan to a L1 club next season, which of course could be back at Newport again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might take quite a bit of time for him to work on parts of his game that gets him to our level. But he looks like a player that can go on and be as good as he wants. A bit like Semenyo IMO. to have the strength and talent they both have at their ages is phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastonboy Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Must be a hell of a prospect if we have awarded him what is ostensibly a 4 year contract. Exciting to see how he turns out!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf Hucker Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 I always felt that the Bristol City careers of Bobby Reid and Joe Bryan took off in the seasons after they had spent their summer in the Back2Action programme. They were noticeably so much stronger and fitter as a result and that elevated their performances to a new level. Certainly some of our newer recruits will benefit from following a similar regime. I hope that they’re directed that way. Congratulations Tyreeq and every success in your City career! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting to see how he turns out!!!! It seems to be the norm that we are offering 3+1 deals these days. I’ve just been updating my spreadsheet and adding historic contract extensions in and I’ve typed (alt c / alt v) “3yr + 1yr” a fair bit. We are positioning ourselves to cut the risk of the 2+1 deal, where if they have a good second year, we are in a difficult position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Sure i read on here last week that he was crap, was never going to make it, that league one was his level and how it was a waste of a wage. Well, I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these deals just as much about ensuring we get something for the player if anyone comes looking, even if it teams like Newport wanting to take him permanently?

Yes I think so, although suspect at this stage both club and player will be setting their targets higher than Newport. If we go back to Reid, when people were suggesting letting him go (or less nice suggestions), at end of 15/16 season I always thought he had value (at the time) of £250-500k. Why would you pay him off when there’s s chance of getting someone to pay you for his services, against the risk of another years wages which I’m sure in Bobby’s case weren’t significant, and probably less than £250k ( at the time), and the fact that he might be a late developer. In Bobbys case it worked rather well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CliftonCliff Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Maybe I’ve missed something, but from what I’ve read on the forum over the course of the season it appeared that Bakinson was getting stellar reviews for quite a long period, but then more recently found himself dropped to the bench and finally out of the match day squad altogether. Has he been injured? Or has his loan period ended? The little I’ve seen of him would suggest he’s an exciting prospect, but I’m wondering if anyone knows why he’s not been involved for Newport in recent weeks. Apologies if this has already been explained elsewhere and I’ve not picked up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakinson much more of a box to box player imo. Palmer is the key to unlock a defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
