Nogbad the Bad Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 Darn it, this is one bloke i reckon could really do the business for City. Goal scoring winger, "the David Beckham of the lower divisions". Rotherham have offered 125k., Mansfield want "a bit more". Don't want to over knock our new signings ( i like Miller) but could we have got a more for our 500k+ Summer outlay? We could probably have got Lawrence, Disley AND Christie for about the same amount. If we had, i don't reckon we'd be struggling for goals OR entertainment.

x3widRacin Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 We could probably have got Lawrence, Disley AND Christie for about the same amount. Ok. lets just buy half of the mansfield starting 11 and make them ours. Yes because that is the key to success. Replace a team that finished 3rd with a team that got relegated :PC_Plod: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogbad the Bad Posted November 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 Mansfield may have been relegated but the 3 players i mentioned were all successes in a poor overall team. Mansfield scored freely ( i.e they scored 4 against us in one game, remember) but had a poor defence. Christie was one of the top scorers in the division. Disley and Lawrence were hugely impressive against City and are very highly rated. Entertaining, attacking players too. The fact they did so well, and Mansfield scored so freely but were relegated proves just how effective these 3 were. I don't want half the Mansfield team, the others were complete ####; but why not pick up the gems on the cheap from a relegated team, all of whom proved themselves against City, when you suddenly have half a million or so to spend?

Simez Posted November 13, 2003 Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 Iysden Christie did very well in a relegated team, 18 league goals is proof of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy g Posted November 13, 2003 Report Share Posted November 13, 2003 Hey, thats funny, we were looking for a goal-scoring right winger over the summer ! Still, thank goodness we managed to get another central-midfielder for twice the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
