BRISTOL86 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Imagine thinking we care they’ve signed Flint when our centre back partnership is Kalas and Webster. Like a Fiat owner laughing at your new Maserati! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 He will definitely suit Cardiff better than Boro. Great move by us to sell. We got him out and Webster in for half the price - and he's a better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish him all the best but Aden, no, no no. Yep. He was immense for us mind so whilst a shit move so far as we are concerned, he's still in credit for me at present.

Be interesting to hear a few taffs views, they'll be having another name change to Bristol City Reserves next. They could've got Frankie Fielding in the building and signed Nicky Hunt for a punt but I guess that even Colin knows Hunt's a ****; takes one to know one.

It's worked out well all round...........Flint gets his second fat signing on fee in 12 months, we make another profit, and if AF hadn't left we may have not signed the best defender in the Championship. Strange that it is reported in the very ordinary Bristol Post that Cardiff fans are baiting us regarding Flints arrival, have they not seen our back four? It would be hard to improve on it, I'm very happy with how we stand at the back, although up front, I'd have Bobby back in a flash.

TonyTonyTony Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Flinty was a warrior for us. Don’t understand the vitriol towards him. It’s likely his last contract so I say go for it Aiden. Also brings him closer to him to Marlon and their wives. Kalas and Webster are years ahead anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalcub Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Flint gave nothing but 100 % for us was an absolute class proffesional , even signed a new contract enabling us to command a larger fee when he left , i have nothing but good words towards aden all thoose that slate him have a look at yourselfs its embarrassing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkins1983 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Best of luck to flinty. We all knew his weakness at the back for us. Quick through ball on the deck and he was in no man’s land. Bring on Cardiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexukhc Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 End of the day it’s just a job for him, he has ties towards this way so think it’s more about that, I do think he would’ve improved under Woodgate though at Boro, I’d wish him well, but it’s Cardiff, hopefully he can give Lee Tomlin a friendly slap from us though right in the face with a chair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However: "You look like c n ts when you tap your head". Worth remembering that this is always true, whoever you are and whatever the circumstances.

BS4 on Tour... Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I will always love Aden Flint - his commitment to Bristol City FC cannot ever be questioned ... he gave everything for our shirt in every game he played. A total professional - and he scored nearly 40 goals for us from centre back - I’ve seen the abuse and criticism he’s been getting on Twitter, FB etc - but whoever is doing that is just clueless - a great Bristol City player - best of luck for your future Aden, and thanks ...

WSMRobin Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 When I watch city I want two things, desire for the shirt and to be entertained. Good, bad or indifferent performance wise, no one can ever criticise Aden for not giving 100% for the club. And who can forget the jpt final goal, the hat trick v walsall, the last minute equaliser v leeds, the no no no, to name just a few. For those reasons alone I have nothing but admiration for the guy. I'm not bothered he's gone to Cardiff and wish him well. This shows to me and others I'm sure how far we've progressed recently. Credit to the decision makers at the club though. he has one year later, moved on for less than we sold him for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketh2nd Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 I understand that its normal for us football fans to want loyalty from players espcially from players like Flint who achieved so much with us , but im with the majority on here not happy he has signed for Cardiff yet im not calling for blood . I m not saying we should cheer him etc but anyone giving abuse(not just banter) to him on social media really need to get a life and grow up!

WhistleHappy Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Looking at that photo makes me wonder if this wasn't more kidnapped than transferred. It reminds me of a middle eastern hostage propaganda picture... Flinty have they taken you against your will? Message to Warnock, if its a ransom you're after forget it... Kill him!

RED4LIFE Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Nobody can ever question Flints commitment to BCFC. However, we are more than entitled to question his ability. We can praise his positives and we can also point out his negatives. That is being fair and just towards a former player. Was he the greatest centre half in the world? Definitely not. Did he always give 100% every single time he pulled on the shirt? Without a shadow of a doubt. Do i care if he plays for that mob over the bridge now? Not in the slightest.

reddogkev Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Ha Ha, Aden Flint, good man, he'll eff up Cardiff's hopes of promotion this season. Flinty helped sabotage things nicely for Boro, now our man undercover is going to ruin the Taffy's. Well done, Flint, well done! Break a few legs in training ...
