Ben4BCFC Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Anyone else feel like it's a breath of fresh air to listen to Baldock talking in his interviews? Barely any 'ums' and 'uhs' and I've not heard a cliche from him yet. Makes a nice change from the usual 'y'know', 'like' and just repeating of the interviewer's questions. Hopefully his intelligence off the pitch will transfer to intelligence on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillageRed Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Just seen his interview, I didn't realise his first shot skimmed the outside of the post, what a first impression to make on and off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rizzle Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Definitely a breath of fresh air for the interviews. seems like a really nice and grounded bloke as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JammyOne Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Nearly scored on the first touch, bags of pace and a good eye for goal! He's hungry you can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Listening to his interview he reminded me even more of Tony Thorpe. He was articulate bloke and so is Baldock. Very similar in stature and playing style as well although Baldock looks a bit quicker. If Baldock scores 50 odd goals for our club in 120 odd games as Thorpe did we'll all be delighted.

I hope (unlike Thorpe) that more than 2 of Baldock's goals are at Championship level, though. Watching him for half an hour it is already apparent that he is nowhere near as lazy as Thorpe was.

Nibor Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Well 99% of footballers come across as a plank. No they don't. A minority of them do.

TRL Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 I see what you dun their! I really couldn't give a damn, I am sat in a bar typing on a touch screen phone. I know full well i can string a conversation without umms and arrrrs, which some would seem to think is such an amazing thing to be able to do!!!!!!! I also know full well i can can type perfectly well well sat in front of a keyboard. So yes, i am glad you can see what i have done there, I am having problems seeing what I have done, as I have drank a little too much already, and am in need of food.

RedUn Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Baldock comes across as someone who moved here because he wanted to for footballing reasons. Maynard moved away because his agent wanted him to for financial reasons. I know who I'd rather have on my side ... and we've got him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldlandReddies Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 From the very first second he stepped onto the pitch today that boy just screamed class. Cardiff could not live with him. He is going to be some player for City. Can't wait for the next match and it has been some time since I last said that............well Tuesday I think !

Couldn't agree more, a very exciting talent.Every time he touched the ball something good happened. He reminds me of Glyn Riley with double the pace!
