BdR2000 Posted May 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Sounds about right tbh I think the only person who City has sold that hasnt become a brilliant player is woolford tho he was cming good but they decided to bench him then stick him in reserves. But at least they are conssistent with missing talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BdR2000 Posted May 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Had a good run down the wing as well i hate to stir the hornets nest but he had bit more skill then what albert does who just runs down the wing and loses it, the kid even took a shot !!!!!

But at least they are conssistent with missing talent Yep you're absolutely right. Because the non league isn't stuffed full of our cast offs? I love people who try and bash the club at every opportunity. So this kid is apparantly having one half decent game in league one. We definatly should have held on to him then....

BdR2000 Posted May 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Big red rich this season the club have sold many talented players for allgedly next to nothing and got relegated.

TinnionForEngland Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 He's a drink driver, caught drunk at the wheel of his nice new Audi 11 days after putting pen to paper on a professional deal with this football club. Good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true that the majority of the players we have let go in recent years don't seem to go on to play at a higher level. However, I think letting Edwards go was very strange. He can't possibly have been any worse than Foster if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herman Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 We didn't 'let him go', he wanted first team football, because as mentioned a zillion times we were too scared to play our own youth players. So he went. Simples. Due to his age, a fee would have had to have been paid. Probably nominal, but certainly not free. Indeed http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Bristol-City-sell-Joe-Edwards-Yeovil-Town/story-17883896-detail/story.html#axzz2SWMooPkB mcinness, the manager who signed foster and mark wilson, decided that edwards wasnt worthy of a run at right back so he understandably left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness I barely saw him play but I just can't imagine he'd have been any worse than Foster, and I'd (somewhat blissfully) forgotten that Mark Wilson even existed!

Been a regular in a side that was pushing for Auto's at one point, and is what? 21 years old, so gunna get better. Bolasie is another, regular in p/o side, highly regarded. Pittman is carving up L1. All 3 left this year, all now doing very well. Many more released to lower leagues and not doing too well, but 3 decent players were let go, and all could be in a division or 2 above us next year. Not a huge disapontment until you learn that we got under £350,000 for all 3. There is the crime we're bemoaning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He drunk drove once, let's make sure he can never ever have a good job in his entire life I agree drink driving is a very low crime to commit but it's not one which you should be punished your entire life for.

candygram for mongo Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Edwards did play quite well but the standard is a long, long way from the championship. I was more impressed with the RB Ayling & CB Burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Given chance to impress under Millen and did so each time I saw him play Frozen out by McInnes (who signed Foster and Wilson) sold by SOD And people say Millen clueless...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Yeovil fans at work rate him highly and claim he was as influential in their terrific run as Paddy Madden. It's why we are in the sh*t, we let players like him go whilst signing Wilson and Foster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillies Downs Leeds Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Joe did indeed have a fine game today but in the centre of midfield not at right back. I posted pre-season that he was regarded as a central midfield player by McInness and it was where he played on the Scotland tour. Would he make it as a right back, who knows?

Chappers Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I gather he has played full-back and in a variety of midfield roles, and never let the team down no matter where he plays. We'll never know if any of these players would have made it, because we never give them a chance, And could they have done any worse than the experienced players who "played"?

Can't argue regarding Joe Edwards, I actually don't believe he's in any way inferior to Kelly in midfield myself and is obviously better than Foster or M.Wilson at RB. As for those who "we never know whether they'd made it or not", none of them are at Championship level now, are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUTOR Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Edwards did play quite well but the standard is a long, long way from the championship. Not at all. Jamie Mac was clearly unable to play in the championship with us anymore and that's why we sold him. All of a sudden he's storming league one with other players like Gavin Williams and Edwards? The gap from the championship to L1 is very underestimated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
