  1. Pretty much what I’ve stated isn’t it? I’d be surprised if Bell is with us next summer. Think a loan move in League One will do him real good. Even if just for half of the 24/25 season. Conway is the more natural finisher, and does have potential to be a top striker in this league. But yes, his attitude at the moment is questionable and one that is not positive to see.
  2. Because I’m talking about our overall forward line. Im glad Bell is willing to learn and doing what it takes. However, you can’t teach instinct and overall intelligence of play. Sam is a nice lad. But for me, he does not cut the cloth to become a top forward in the Championship. Which is what we’re trying to achieve aren’t we? I think he’ll end up in League One and carve a good career there. May even possibly do a Wes Burns.
  3. A smart forward with the intelligence of a good striker in this league. It’s something Conway has glimmers of at times and something I believe Bell will not have at this level. Big fan of Wells, but his age does appear to catch up at times. Definitely need a couple of strikers in this summer window.
  4. Or perhaps he just isn’t good enough at this level. Something I’ve said from day one. I don’t care if he’s a local lad or not. I want top players at the club who will push us to the next level. Bell isn’t one of them, but that’s just my opinion.
  5. Bell showing why he isn’t a championship player. Extremely frustrating
  6. Good appointment for Blackburn
  7. Somewhat fearful we are losing players not just with the experience. But the personalities and characters who are driven and want to be successful. I do fear we will go back to onboarding players who are “quiet and nice lads” but don’t have the fight and drive to want to push on. Ie the O’Dowda’s and Patterson’s etc.
  8. Shouldn’t have Bell taking one so early given his out of form state and not part of starting team
  9. That Gary Johnson is doing well at Yeovil. What are your thoughts @Robbored?
  10. My concern is if we do lose 8 or 9 players this season. I have zero trust this board to sign players that will actually push us on. We’ve moaned and been frustrated a lot this season. Next season has the potential for the fanbase to explode. Concerning times.
  11. Don’t have to forget the academy. However, Bell & Mehmeti do need to go this summer if we are ever serious of competing.
  12. I think we would all be moaning still if Pearson was here. The problem is, Manning was brought in to push on and improve us. Which hasn’t happened. We’ve actually gone backwards in my view. This is why the temperature is hot amongst the fanbase and will continue to be so. Until things do improve, if they actually can.
  13. Not even in with a fighting chance. Been dominated entire game so far.
  14. This is where Manning has to prove himself. What are you going to do tactically to change the game?
  15. Miles away from being as good as a team like Leeds
  16. Wonder if Pearson is laughing or quite peed off. Had money to spend after alll….
