Black Rat Lover_89 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 No Carey has been told he is not getting another deal. If that is true thats a disgrace hes been our best defender(ok not hard) since he came back from injury! if he does go, got to go for imougu as a replacement for deff!!

Tales From The Front Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 If that is true thats a disgrace hes been our best defender(ok not hard) since he came back from injury! if he does go, got to go for imougu as a replacement for deff!! Its not a disgrace...he has been a big club man and has shown great battling qualities overe the last run of games and I'm sure we are very thankful and would like to show our appreciation in the correct way. But this division is not getting any easier the potential 24 sides next year makes interesting reading. City will need to offer over the whole 46 games a heck of a lot more and the manager has oppenly said words to this effect publicaly. If the manager thinks he can still do a job then I'll back his judgement, but when money is tight, we will have to utlise a squad of circa 25 players that are good enough to compete in the sort of company we will be keeping, sentiment cannot be part of that thought process. Good luck to the guy he has been a stalwart, lets wait and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Rollason Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 No Carey has been told he is not getting another deal. no, someones mate who works at the club thinks that he might have been told he may not get a new deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 If I were him I would retire gracefully. He isn't good enough anymore. Easier said than done - he obviously loves playing football but you are right, it is better to make the decision yourself than have diminishing ability force someone else into making that decision. There were mistakes this year, some of them indescribable. However, I think these overshadow some very good performances indeed. I'm not advocating keeping him here, I think his time has come but I think for someone else like Plymouth he could do a job. Commercially it would be good for the club too (provided wages were appropriate). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRL Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Where ever he goes, he needs coaching role, even if that incorporates playing, he should be looking to his future. He has enough to retire anyway, time to get those coaching badges and coaching experience, unless he wants to concentrate on his art ambitions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangers Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Well it hasn't worked out for him here. If we could look back on the day he signed there would be MASSIVE DISAPOINTMENT at how it has turned out. Trying to remember some outstanding games he has had for us. Cant think of any tbh.

A couple of outstanding game, a lot of average, and too many mediocre for me. if he had come in from a 1st or 2nd division club on low wages I still wouldn't have been impressed, but for massive wages, a ex England international, he was nothing more than a huge huge disappointment.

Give me an example of where he has been "outstanding", and don't say Reading away....cos he certainly wasn't outstanding despite one good penalty save.

I can't remember the games, I remember the headlines. To be honest I couldn't care, I never thought he was good enough in his time here, 2 or 3 outstanding performances don't make up for medeocrity. Why do you need to know the 2 good games anyway? Every bad player has the odd good game, it happens....Apart from Hunt and Mitchell of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think he has been poor throughout the season, in fact, with the exception of Joe Murphy, I can't think of a worse starting goalkeeper in the whole of the league.

I've said it before, Cashley, Shaw, Waugh, Leaning, Sinclair, Dykstra, Welch, Phillips, Basso 30 years of 1st teamers (albeit Dykstra on loan) All better than James on the form he has shown in the last 2 seasons. I maintain he is the worst regular keeper I have seen at the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
II Wurzel II Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hope he's leaving to be honest, sounds harsh but everytime his name's on the teamsheet it sends shivers down my spine. Unfortunatly all good things come to an end, if Carey hasn't been given an extension then theres no way in a milliion years DJ has, 100% gaurenteed.

Pewsham Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 The locals here in Swindon seem convinced he's on his way to Swindon. Backed up (or started) by a story in The Sun. Couldnt tell ya about that - I don't read The Sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggythecity Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Has played really well at times,eratic at others but as top wage earner not really good enough.Hope he goes to free up money for more important posistional signings.good luck to him though not his fault we paid him so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdave60 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Agreed - biggest win is £20k+ per week off our wage bill I thought Mr Lansdown was paying this wage. At least it might go to someone coming in this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said on another thread, we have seen occasional flashes of brilliance from him for us, but generally it has been a case of a former star in his decline. If he can get another year at Plymouth, good luck to him. However, it seems unlikely - as PAFC are still in deep financial trouble I believe. Or has some rich man stepped up for them ?

Bigdave60 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 +1 Del has always stressed the importance of Cisse since he took over. He is a MUST keep for me. Yes he does have some injury probs and fitness issues at times but given a summer Del and the staff can work on that and get him into shape. Be devastated to see him go. But will he be around in the summer, i seem to remember he was living in Europe last summer. Did he not upset Millen by reporting back to pre-season training over weight. ?

Brizzle Jordan Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Neither Cisse, Skuse or Elliot offer much creativity so why have all 3 of them? I'd keep Cisse and Skuse as they've both done very well this season, Skuse mainly towards the end but he's showing signs of improving under Del.

I am deadly serious I also haven't seen a keeper dropped for poor performances as many times as James. Says it all really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think theor in deep financial trouble anymore, but for them to get James would take a pretty sizeable wage and I wouldn't of thought that's what they would need, its exactly what went wrong under their previous regime... Saying that, living in Plymouth myself I've always been told he was quoted saying he would love to finish his career at Argyle, but that was when they were in the championship, whether or not he would fancy league 2 is another question I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
