Kid in the Riot Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 'Everyone'? Well I'll continue to dare to be different then In response to your question, no we arent. Instead of getting old (er) journeymen in to cover old(er) players on long and expensive contracts, we are getting old(er) players in to cover young players, (who are good enough, but not many will give them any credit!) on long but cheaper contracts. Either way it's still the young players who are suffering, much like they have before. There is no panic, just an observation Sorry, who are these older players we are bringing in on long contracts?? 6 Months isn't long, nor is a year. You say observing, I'd say criticising.

Kid in the Riot Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Yes you did. You said we were bringing in older players for cover on long contracts. Who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CITYAREREDANDWHITE Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Maybe this: ----------------------Parish Maloney---Flint*-----------Williams----Shorey -----------------------Gillet --------Wagstaff----Pack-----Reid -----------------------JET -----------------------Taylor *or it could be the CB from Millwall Gillet sounds like a similar player to Elliot but one that can pass a ball, this will allow Pack to move further forward, because he doesn't have to be an easy option for Elliot. Pack played further forward at Cheltenham and was much more effective. Also Reid can tuck in a bit or swap with Wagstaff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesBCFC Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Yes you did. You said we were bringing in older players for cover on long contracts. Who? I think he was saying that we are bringing in older players to cover younger players that are on long contracts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I think he was saying that we are bringing in older players to cover younger players that are on long contracts Ah right, well again in the short term this is an acceptable solution and certainly doesn't conflict with the youth recruitment policy. Long term if the youngsters, like Wynter for example, are good enough then they'll break through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesBCFC Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I think with regards to wynter not playing it's because the pressure on him and the team would be extremely high at the moment because we are struggling, I know it's the same with Williams but I think Williams has been as good as our other defenders this season Again wynter was very good when he played, but after the injury I think expectation will be on him to carry on where he left off and while we are in our current position it may be a bit too much to ask until we get ourself a bit higher up the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Add me to the "let's just see how he does before we judge" tendency. His addition sounds surplus to requirements and contrary to the club's stated philosophy, however maybe he'll be the spark that sets the rest of the season on fire for us.
