cheese Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I see Maynard is in the Evil today saying he wants to emulate Huddersfield's unbeaten record. Apart from the fact that he has been infected by Mad Optimism Disease first identified on ths very forum, does he not realise that he'd need to sign a new contract to be part of that?

Murraysrightplum Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Why does he? He is here until the end of the season, we can go unbeaten until then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Bristol-City_ Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Why does he? He is here until the end of the season, we can go unbeaten until then... Because Huddersfield are un-beaten in the league in 44 games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murraysrightplum Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Bristol City can still go unbeaten next season without him, while he's here he is part of it. As someone else said, it is all good positive stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfcchris2016 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 My goodness, some of you is gonna collapse with shock if we lose to top of the league Southampton. I'm feeling a lot more positive but I still feel it's work in progress for the time being. McInnes is certainly doing everything right though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolCity10 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Bit of a difference between Championship and League 1 so forget that, just sign your contract and shut everyone up who thinks we dont need u...cuz we do ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murraysrightplum Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 1 year extension with premier league club/minimum release clause would do me. We'd get a bit of dough when he leaves then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderGlider Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Well he's doing more interviews and sounding more positive so it can only be a good thing Thank you!! If we were top of the league by 20 clear points we would still be shooting him down in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redcliffe 78 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Positive interview, i hope he get's to 12/13 goals by January, we hopefully then mid table and a bid comes in for him again, Take the money this time or do we keep him big decision time for the board then.

If we can be in a reasonable position by Christmas I suspect the decision will be left to DM. Yes it may well be the clubs last chance to get some money but if DM thinks we can get anywhere near the top six he will be given the option to keep Maynard and take a chance...The question will be is Pitman/Stead the player to replace him in a Play Off push if something between 3&5M comes in ....?

Yep agree there like i said a massive decision for the board fingers crossed we are in a postion to make him sign. Either way strugling or a slim chance of going up i would keep him because going down will cost us more than £3-6m in revenue, ambition. Etc.

We'll either be down near the bottom still, which means his goals would be worth more than the price we would get by selling him in January... ,,,or we would have maintained our good form and the price we would receive versus the potential rewards on our upward trajectory would be worthwhile.

Nibor Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 He won't be moving in January unless a Prem club comes in with a big offer (both for him and the club). Please let's not go over old ground, he was not interested in Leicester and taking the money then was never an option because of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've misread I think, I was not saying it shouldn't be discussed, just that perpetuating the myth we could have "taken the money" in the summer is wrong - we never had that opportunity because the player didn't want the move.

havanatopia Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Talking of Huddersfield; while i applaud their undoubtedly fabulous run of results it is not and should not be a record. Of course, some record keeper has bent the rules or the media have decided to overlook it for a good story because if the play off final is not a league fixture or a league or fa cup match then what is it? Another example of dumbing down, shameful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes siree sir i know the match we are talking about and the significance. As far as i am concerned it is nonsense to exclude it. An unbeaten run is an unbeaten run, end of. This is not. Riaz; yes i have noted the run is magnificent absolutely right on that and its not their fault the record stands when clearly it should not. Ask a Florist fan what he thinks. Ask Cloughie beyond the grave; he'd be saying the same as me. Nonsense. In fact some on TV have already questioned it. cannot believe anybody is defending it to be frank.

Agree i don't make the rules. But 46 games the fixture list says if you are unbeaten in that period you are unbeaten, they got stuffed in a competeative game at Swindon recently.
