PFree Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 Terrible form towards the end of last season and we sell the only players who were really popular with the fans.. I can only assume we have a signing or two lined up that will bring fans back onside, not all, but if we'll get off to a poor start once the season starts, god help,us - don't doubt some fans will remain onside but I suspect not many..! Just hope there is good news to come although I must admit to not having confidence that there is too much strategy involved sat behind the scenes..

So Smith, Pack, Bryan, Brownhill and Diedhiou have all left have they? Blimey, I missed that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been injury prone which is a concern but is good on the ball. He won’t score goals like Flint but I can see a combo of him and Baker working well fingers crossed !

BLRed Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 Pack and Bryan will be next out the door. Packs best mate has gone so he'll be like a lost puppy. Not signed a new contract same with Bryan either so think we'll cash in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoystonFoote'snephew Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 What is this crap that Pack’s best mate has gone, so he will be like a lost puppy and won’t be able to cope without him. Even if he left he’s not likely to go i the same club. FFS he’s a grown man and best mates, even brothers and twin brothers in sport are split up all the time. In these days of social media they can be speaking 12 hours or more a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tbh I knew little about him but that seems to be the case A different player for sure - will be some pros and cons Im just bemused how many seem to be so sure that he’s an upgrade ( Until I see more of him I certainly wouldn’t be able to form any opinion) and how often and carefully they’ve watched him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I ask how you have watched Webster extensively? Have you watched a lot of Ipswich, Portsmouth, or Aldershot? COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC81 Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 Reid and Flint might have been fans favourites, but they also contributed to our poor form towards the end of the season as well, they were not blameless in that run. Players come, players go, we are not in the position to be able to turn down these sums of money we received. Lets not write off the new signing just yet eh, lets just remember that Flint wasn’t the player he is now when he walked through the door, so maybe just maybe the club is doing something right!!!

What - they were part of that side Because I don’t know what games you watched because Reid and Flint were certainly consistently two of the least culpable IMHO and regularly two of our better performers But we’ve sold them now so you won’t have to worry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 We won't miss flint as he's an average defender, as for Reid 10m is bloody good for someone out of contract next and only 1 proven season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is definitely a better more established player than Flint was when we signed him. If we improve him as much as Flint improved (huge ask admittedly) then its a good move.
