Fordy62 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Rumour has it our favourite love to hate player is set to sign for League 2 Walsall. I can only assume he’s completely out of shape to be signing there? In league two he could be amazing… or a career ending car crash… watch this space!

Undermined management at every chance and selfishly changed the culture of the club within ie previous no phones in the canteen rule which players before put in to encourage socialising, he wanted changed, think Wilbs spoke about it on a podcast. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree with this. I'm sure there will more stuff to follow about the proximity of BK, KFC and Dominoes to the ground etc, etc, and others mentioning mental health etc, etc. However, stood behind the goal at Fulham when that last gasp free kick went in was a truly amazing moment in my 47 years of supporting City. I also spent the night in the area drinking with Fulham fans looking smug all night. Great day! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on! He certainly was not the model professional. Loved him whilst on loan but once he signed he couldn’t be arsed. The Burton penalty was the icing on the cake for me 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, he has problems - but doesn’t mean he’s exempt from being a good person. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippin cider Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Can’t remember what game it was but he brought the ball down kicked it over himself turned and volleyed I think to score …that was some skill . Shame his commitment wasn’t there as he could have been some player for us . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On his day, when he could be bothered, great player . Most of the time, he looked like me in a City shirt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was exceptional when he first arrived and kept us up. That is true, all singing ‘sign him on’ last home game end of his loan…then he morphed into something else…. His history at all the clubs he landed at says it all. From brilliant start to then a non event and waste. A waste of a talent, waste of a wage, and became a waste of time. He himself admits he has demons… So, the cycle continues and will be an interesting watch. I will always remember that goal against Huddersfield home, and the free kick at Fulham…. I thought he would end up back at Peterborough for the third or fourth time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can remember one outstanding piece of skill can’t remember who against maybe Sheffield Wednesday. Right in front of the Dolman touch line, the ball was played to him from our fullback and with their left back running into press him, Tomlin flicked the ball over the onrushing players head with the outside of his foot and was away. Sublime to the ridiculous at times though as I also remember that atrocious penalty infront of the atyeo. Clearly very talented but also flawed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheltons Army Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 One of LJs first , and IMO , one of his, if not his biggest , major mistake in his tenure. Eddie Howe wanted rid asap and the reasons weren’t hidden , but Lee believed he could be ‘the one’ to manage Tomlin (The very same as he believed he was ‘the one’ to get the best out of Kasey Palmer , when others more experienced , such as Tony Mowbray had failed and given up) ( Two prime examples of LJs ‘over confidence in himself’ and bet LJ looks back on it as a mistake ) Tomlin undermined LJ and failing to act decisively and get rid that undermining of a HC / manager can quickly fester and spread, it won’t have helped LJ with the rest of the squad Shouod never have signed him permanently and should of got rid as soon as he demonstrated his normal behaviour & traits 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjak Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 All that talent......and he couldn;t be arsed. Kids would kill for the natural ability he possessed, and he squandered it on the altar of being a fat smartass, having nothing but contempt for the waster. Other than that he seemed alright?
