Alex_BCFC Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Surely this is the biggest load of rubbish ever. Was by far the best player on the park against us and far too good for our level. Why would he drop so low when he is at Ajax with Martin Jol in charge? Answer he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolCity4Life Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 On an Ajax forum: I'd say they could have him on a free, we've gotten rid of his wages and Bristol are happy aswell (at least until they've seen him play for some games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidNoble Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 If Sno does sign and Elliot stays, how about this for a new song; OOOOOOHHHHH We've got the best midfield in the World, We've got super Paul Hartley, Skusey and Marvin, and lets not forget we've got SnOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Agree, heres how Liverpool do it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBYyKegNWBk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Ajax fans think there's something in it - see www.ajaxfans.net . I don't pretend to speak any Dutch, but their fans don't seem too worried - seem to think they have better players, and the one comment I think I did follow was "Go Sno" !!! Doesn't appear to be featuring in their first team - even on the bench. He certainly was awesome in that friendly - and would be some signing for the CCC. Go get him Gary!!!

DavidNoble Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I read this last night and though 'Oh yeah he was quite good wasn't he in that friendly'. Now iv just realised how class he was. Head and shoulders above the rest. Emanuelsen, the bloke Arsenal were going to sign for £18million, didn't look as good as him. If GJ could pull this off, then well... Hartley, Elliott and Sno in a Bristol City midfield with Maynard and Haynes up front with Akinde and Clarkson to come on. Im drooling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windmillhillred Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I dont know anything about sno but Iwouldnt judge anybody on how good they looked against our midfield especially in a friendly he was a different class, but you make a fair point in that a friendly is a friendly. But, crucially, look at this guy's pedigree - 22 and fifty games for either Ajax or Celtic. It would be an awesome signing for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not used to this He could help us push up the league and maybe sell him on to a premier league side for £12million or something. Well from what i saw in the friendly.

Ray White Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 http://goal.com/en/news/462/netherlands/20...abri-eight-more That would certainly suggest he's available. Why don't we try and get Gabri as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolCity1992 Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I've heard they're far in negotiations. I think he also played for Celtic before. Pls take him, but sign him permanently. I don't want to see this guy again in an Ajax-shirt! And someone else: I did read about this transfer. I trust things I read in Telegraaf, and they mentioned it and a few smaller sources have also indicated the potential move. I posted two of the articles below. Oh don't be too excited about the move though, Sno is total disaster and I'd happily sent him anywhere far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunley Legend Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Perhaps we should send one or two of our midfield players to Ajax (Johnson and Williams perhaps) in return and then ask their fans to do a comparison with Sno!! Yes I am only judging the guy on one game but that one game showed that he has more in his locker than both of the City players I have named above. And it's not like the guy has only played half a dozen games in total for Celtic and Ajax. Managers have seen enough of him to play him 50 odd times for clubs who are infinitely bigger than ours.

AcciesRobin Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I'm a little worried by the reaction of most fans on here. The CCC may be his level, but I wouldn't say there's much between the SPL and the CCC and he was a very poor player in the SPL. Like I said previously he may have matured and grew as a players but judging by Ajax fans opinions I'm thinking not. Too much is being read into his performance in a friendly.

Frome Red Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Sno was superb V us in pre season, cant believe that we are being linked with a player of this pedigree, lets hope it is true as he can play cb cm and even as a target man !

94th Minute Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Am I reading the same forum as probably just a month ago. Late july days when there was little more important than the preseason form, poor proformances were doom and gloom. We all knew something for sure, we all knew preseason results were all that mattered. Some would argue that preseason wasn't where it all was... ohhh how we would mock them Well I guess we should just be happy were actually judging him on a proformance that people have seen, that's a step up from the usual, isn't it?

Rocky Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Did Hartley play in the same Celtic team as Sno? good person to talk up the club! Also a good job he got a standing ovation, shows we respect a bit of quality!!! If we get him, wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DanC Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Johnson did joke after the game that he asked Martin Jol would he loan us the striker and midfield player and Jol said to him not yet so just maybe Jol has taken him up on that offer and I would be delighted if that's the case as he was the best player that day and his performance was worth the entry fee.

TinnionForEngland Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Signing players who have played for the likes of Rangers, Celtic and now possibly Ajax, definitely indicates to me that the club is going in the right direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbarn Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 a dream signing showing we meant business this is on weather Elliot leaves or not. Although wouldn't be suprised if it's just rumors but still nice that we could be sniffing. More recently Evander Sno has been deployed as a striker, at 6ft 2.5in he could also be the target man that most clubs use to success. Did'nt a certain Mr.Adebola do that for us last season. (as much as we dislike "woosh" tactics) News of the (alleged) loan deal is on a few Dutch websites. I guess it's a case of staying tuned tomorrow, with crossed fingers. :fingerscrossed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Gow Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I distinctively remember thinking to myself at the friendly match with Ajax that i wish we could sign Sno, that at the time was wishful thinking! The feedback from Dutch and Scottish fans is not too good however, but one thing springs to mind here and that is the Hartley factor, surely to god Johnson would have consulted Hartley about Sno. Its obvious there is something about the lad or otherwise Hartley would have given it the thumbs down. Yes i did think Sno looked world class at the friendly and looked head and shoulders above anything else on the pitch, but it was more like an exibition match with free flowing football played at a snails pace. The championship however will be played at 100 miles and hour and it would be interesting to see if he addapts, obviously the likes of Johnson and Hartley think so. Personaly i believe we have nothing to lose from a loan situation and can only see this as a positive move, if this rumour is true of course.
