redfuzzystuff Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Yeah - I just don't see him as a fit, plus his injury record isn't great. If he came here then I'd support him, but there must be better options out there The problem is most better options don't want to come here it really frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Orns Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 The problem is most better options don't want to come here it really frustrating Yeah, should've mentioned that part!! I'm sure that if we were in for him someone bigger would come along....then he'd get 30 goals and you'd remind me I'd slagged him off in August!

Guest Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Are people seriously saying they wouldnt want Gary Hooper here? Yes. Round hole meet square peg. No-one is suggesting anything even like he is not good enough for Bristol City, just that (well in my opinion) he'd be expensive and ineffective per expectations.

Dynamite Red Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Isn't he a right wing back, surely we don't need another, I know he can cover other positions but seems to be the one position we have an excess if cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for diamonds in the rough, talent in L1/2 could be the way forward for the time being until we can establish ourselves as a competive Championship club.

Lrrr Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Would be surprised if we went for Byrne, would have thought we'd have gone for him over Fredericks if he were our first choice in that position unless we didn't have more money after the Gayle/Gray deal.

Show Me The Money! Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Where are the rumors about signing a center half or experienced central midfielder? I'm getting tired of us chasing strikers when the rest of the squad is so thin. Maybe I need to get on Twitter and set some things in motion.

There's a chance he could smash goals in for us everyone has to start somewhere !! Strikers in general are the most coveted players in football, so there is also a chance that with the huge fees being asked for Gayle and Gray, that football insiders know something about Bradshaw that we don't, otherwise I would suggest he would already be gone to a championship team.

BCFC11 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Say we did sign Bradshaw, after 2 games his hamstring goes again you'd all be moaning, saying what a waste etc. He's had well known injury problems, its a no from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
