    Cornick reminds me a lot of David Clarkson ,not fast ,not very good in the air and not particularly skilful.But every so often he does something good.

    David Clarkson was a disappointment overall unfortunately .I think I’ve seen enough now to suggest Cornick is likely to follow a similar trajectory . 
    Be nice to be proved wrong,but not expecting it.

    The more worrying thing ,is with limited funds we really need our recruitment to be spot on,the scatter gun days are behind us.

    He’s chaotic but in a good way. It was a good save but whenever he’s been on the pitch (or the touch line) things have happened this season.

    No doubt a fantastic game and great to see - as a lot of us have been saying for a while, play to his strengths and he is clearly a threat. A superb finish today. 

    However - one swallow does not a summer bring...he seems to rely on the team as a whole being on top the game and controlling the ball in high positions to be most effective. When we're not, he struggles and can't influence the game. I think Swansea, as an opponent, perhaps suit his game, hence why he's done well vs. them.

    The issue that will for me continue is when he meets a more physical back 4, he will just ushered out of the game again. 

    But go prove me more, be more consistent and find a way to effect games when it's not going your way. 

    I’m not shooting you down by any means though is that not a definition of a winger/inside forward? If you’re on top of the game they’re brilliant, if you’re not you’re carrying them.

    Might be a hangover from the game against Reading at home, when, despite having multiple chances to make a telling contribution, his end product was non existent. More likely that Nige just wants to mix things up though. 

    **** otib

    If the authorities dig deep enough, they'll find that all the big, successful clubs in the Prem (and also some not-so-uccessful ones) are/have been breaking regulations. both financial and non-financial.

    That's the way of modern £ootball.

    All are/have been equally guilty.

     

    All the best to Man City for the remainder of this season. It's unlikely that anyone will beat Arsenal to the title, unless they implode.

     

     

    It’s Arsenal. Implosion is guaranteed haha.

    As usual I’ll make a small attempt to stand up for Scottish football, and I know @Robboredis in total agreement with me!

    I think clubs in Scotland have relatively good support given the population of the whole country is just over 5m people and there are 42 clubs in the main four divisions before the non league clubs are considered. Also, there are some clusters of clubs all fighting for condensed local support - eg there are six clubs within the Dundee postcode alone.

    People down here are quick to dismiss Scottish clubs as ‘pub teams’ (as you did) yet there was a significant clamour on here recently to sign a player from Aberdeen - why would we want to sign a player who plays in a ‘pub’ league for a ‘pub’ team?!

    Anyway, just my regular attempt to stick up for the game North of the border - as you were....

    I can recall reading somewhere that per capita, Scotland has the highest average attendance in Europe.

    I’m actually going to Inverness later in the year and hope to take in a game.
