TinMan's left peg Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Would love to see Bobby come home. Hopefully it would mean a return to when we had a distinctive style of play (high press, fast break etc.) which we seem to have lost over the last year. He is the perfect player for that and with some of the new recruits behind him it could be even more effective now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh1t_ref_again Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Loved bobby, no problem with his time at Badiff, but unless he is coming back cheap, I am not sure he is what we need. I think we have several players who can play the same roll, which is why I am so keen on EN, because we need pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have to, with a player like Reid up top Fam has the ability to score 20, had he not been injured he's scoring rate would have seen him score more than Bobby, would be happy for Bobby to get 10 if he unlocks Fams ability.

Or Reid? Or Vydra? Or Hogan? Or Hugill? Or Austin? Or Wells? Or Assombalonga? Or Gayle? Or is that he’s actually a bit crap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 So... Facts on the ground here... January: unsubstantiated rumour that we tried to loan Bobby Reid Yesterday: Peter O'Rourke claims 'a source' tells him we're interested in signing BR. Yesterday: Gregor McFaceyface claims 'a source' told him earlier in the summer that BR would be keen on a return. Too flimsy for me. Our interest needs to be corroborated.

Biggest barrier to this in my opinion would be if Cardiff are happy to sell to a divisional rival or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete O'Rouke and Alan Nixon are pretty reliable sources as far as transfers go. Nixon is incredibly arrogant, so doesn't like being wrong. O'Rouke is perhaps the most respected mainstream national journalist on transfers (not including local specific club based ones). Don't think it's flimsy at all really. Much better than random twitter accounts (supposedly run by agents) saying we're interested in player X or Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MA and LK have a tight grip on social media activity so there's no way that tweet wasn't planned for and cleared. So, why two eye emojis - two players, why Tinman - youth link.
