Strictly Obi Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 As far as I'm concerned, if he's done his time for the crime he committed. And he does a good job for us, then I'm happy! We've struggled all season to bring in players, extra numbers are bound to help even if they are not the pie in the sky signings some on here expect!

Taz Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 To be fair, does anybody know the reaction of QPR/Blackburn supporters when they signed Bradley Orr? You know, Saint Bradley who did time for his part in the nightclub incident and also headbutted his team mate (Carey) during a match which was live on Sky? I liked Bradley, good player but he made mistakes. Don't know much about Madine does anything sound familiar though!? At the end of the day we don't have the pick of whoever we like. We have no manager/coach, and are currently looking likely to go down (although that could very quickly change). If he comes in, does a job, and keeps his nose clean, then fine by me. Joey Barton seems to be doing ok at the moment as well.... Can we please wait until he at least plays a couple of games for us before we completely write him off...

Come on Taz, you know how this works..... I wouldn't mind him to be honest, as I said on another thread, nob off the pitch he might be, but he's a nasty bastard and I think there's a space in the squad for that. If he's a **** on the training ground I'm sure Little will sort him out...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent Pepper Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I haven't even contemplated his off the field problems. I'm more worried about his strike rate (as highlighted by Nogbad above) and the fact that he's a pretty poor footballer. Jeez, we wait for a season and a half for a transfer and now i'm dreading the news of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ok, leaving myself open to ridicule here but I’m not against this transfer. Ok I’m not happy about his off field antics but I’m hoping he has learnt his lesson and he has grown up a bit since doing bird. However what I see from a playing point of view is a player very similar to Wilbraham but at 25 is 11 years younger than him with hopefully still his best years to come. He has played (and scored) at mainly Championship and League One level. His strike rate is similar to that of Robbie Turner, who in my opinion was one half of the best striking partnership I have seen at City, and hopefully in Kodjia we will have the Bob Taylor role filled as well. I also believe that Kodjia has scored all but one of his goals this season when Wilbraham has been alongside him so with a younger fitter Wilbraham in that role this partnership may well blossom into a relegation avoiding one. Ok he is no Andre Gray, Dwight Gayle or even a Bradley Dack, the transfer may not even happen but if it does let’s not write the bloke off just yet especially when we may have finally found someone who actually wants to sign for us on a permanent basis.

Missed 2 identical sitters from 5 yards with his head. He was so bad in fact, that despite coming on as a sub at half time, was taken off before the end of the game. The rumour is bollocks though and I can't believe people have fell for it, looking at the tweet it's clearly a Bolton fan on the wind up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
