Cider red Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 I doubt it after the way he's been treated by the club.

Cider red Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 How exactly has he been treated by the club??? ← Badly , after all the goals he has proved he can score regularly , gets a load of abuse from the fans for no reason , after all he has done for us tinnion ships him out of the team just because he wanted to stay on the pitch , and at the point he was taken off he was playing miles better than lita , he's basically been told to eff off by the chairman. And why isnt he being allowed to play against us , i've seen an interview with landsdown sayint "now he cant score a hatrick against us!" , so funny is it landsdown , well if we can score a hatrick against us why the ###### are we letting him go?! :@ :@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pointy Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 i really really think we are not going to miss him at all at this club, its not going to make this monumental amount of difference everyone thinks it will, he is a average player ... we have so much better at this club that we can use to our advantage lets go forwards instead of backwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercury Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Badly , after all the goals he has proved he can score regularly How many is it again? oh yes, 1 this season, and seven last season, including the only goal of any importance last season, against Hartlepool. no one else even contributed to us getting to the play-offs did they.

Okay i cant argue against that , but as soon as he came into the team we started winning. 2.In my opinion he has done more for us than lita ever will be able to. I was talking about the huddersfield game when he got subbed and threw his shirt down , he was playing better than lita at the time and obviously new it. 3. Scored goals in the playoffs , against hartlepool. Do i really have to remind you of all the important goals he's scored for us over the years? 4. Could be but i don't think steve l was suggesting that , do you really think the chairman would be stupid enough to have a pop at our defence in public?

albany P reds Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Question- If he's as good as most people on here like to think then why has'nt anybody else come in for him?

The chairman has given him the option to talk to another club. If he turns this down he will be treated as every other player and given a chance. Just because Tinnion believe that other striking partners will be more suited and beneficial to the team it doesn't mean he has been thrown out of the club. You don't see Lee Miller mouthing off and throwing his toys out of his pram with every signing yet he is in the same position as Roberts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercury Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 3. Scored goals in the playoffs , against hartlepool. Do i really have to remind you of all the important goals he's scored for us over the years? Christ, and isn't that the only one anyone ever goes on about. What about the sitters he's missed, then we might not have needed the play offs. And yes, please remend me of the 'important' goals he's scored for us over the years, because apart from the Hartlepool game, I can't remember, are they any more important than lee peacocks, or scott murrays? or even tony butlers? wasn't freezers goal in that game just as important?

Go and support rovers if you've got that attitude. He has scored 1 goal this season , but i'm on about last season when he actually played up front , remember??? And the season before when he scored 20 odd goals up front , without him last year we probably would have just about made the playoffs , the season before that we wouldnt have had a hope. Goals against cardiff (remember that??) , crewe (to keep us in the hunt for promotion) , mansfield (what a couple of goals they were too) , a hat trick at barnsley. Give the guy a break for gods sake , he's done more for this club than a lot of over rated donkeys we have at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberts led the fightback ( and i mean led it, NOT Doherty, NOT Tinnion - it was Roberts who got the team moving) with superb passing & movement, the pin-point cross for Goodfellow's goal and the winner which no-one else in City's side could have scored. If you've got the game on video, watch it sometime - there's much more to his game than goalscoring statistics might suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His season was so good, that only the last five minutes of the play-offs semi-final is all you keep going on about. The mans attitude stank, he only performed when it suited him. you don't mention the invisible performance at the millenium stadium do you.
