cityshippers Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 I don't think he did train with the 23s today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC RISK77 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Lee tomlin is a disgrace to his profession, yes a talented footballer but in awful shape which is inexcusable for a sportsman who trains every day and plays twice a week most weeks. He clearly has previous at other clubs for a questionable attitude....I genuinely thought this would be the signing that moved us to the next level but unfortunately he has been a dissapointment.

Or 100% fact you've heard it? Cos if it's the latter, then I've heard it too - at the top of this thread. Doesn't mean I believe it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he packs his bags before the window is over, I'll shed no tears. He's a class player, when he wants to be. He's just like JET in that there's a reason he's at the level he is and he is the one person who mentally can't bring himself to allow himself to play at a higher level. He isn't the player or character we needed. We were deceived. I can excuse that, he was damn exciting on loan. But he's a billy big living off a reputation and is clearly coasting but still expecting to be shown utmost respect. I totally agree with your post.

Steve Watts Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Tomlin is training with the first team, Johnson has not lost the dressing room. There are no cliques within the team. The great team spirit which SC built and fostered is stronger than ever. Young players are currently not getting a chance due to the pressure of the situation possibly setting their progress back, but they are being included in the matchday squad to increase their exposure to the match day experience. Johnson berating senior players who are acting like children. Lansdown decided to front up to the reality of the situation and make several public statements. The optimism that LJ fostered toward the end of last season has waned in the eyes of many supporters.. Johnson is doing his best to turn the fortunes of the club around and we have to sit back and support this. 100% true, but I won't name my source, so you'll just have to believe me.... and I have over 2000 posts, so at least I'll have the respect of Agard Days Night....

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 So the upshot of these two pages is that there is no evidence whatsoever that Tomlin is training with the under 23s. Can we get rid of the thread then, or at least change the title? Also, it would be helpful if people didn't post lies that were likely to damage the club.

WestonRobin Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 So, the good news is we know he is training but we aren't sure with whom. Nevertheless he is training, this is great as he may get in to shape! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one who was taken in by last years magic but honestly we all knew this would end in tears, maybe not this soon but eventually. I think you're over thinking it. If the club really cared what the fans(and this forum especially) LJ would be gone. They saw a top player for this level that was affordable. He had baggage and we gambled we could deal. Seems we couldn't. Give him his last chance or cut out losses. We're not as good without him at his best but we are better off without him at his worst which is what he's at right now.

We will probably never know. You could be right and the fans pressured them into Tomlin. He hasn't worked out so he's not listening to us now. Anything is possible but I do think they gambled on a talented player that was affordable for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poshtottie Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Tomlin played well last year as realistically he hoped to get back into the Bournemouth hot seat! The deal to sign him took along time to tie up probably as he was hoping for Premiership football or high end championship football and he probably knew where BCFC would be come the end of the season! I Guess we were the best on offer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope not to much damage has been done behind the scenes. It actually might not be that bad and fixable.
