Big Red Rich Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Fair play to Leroy. The fact he dedicated the game to the gaffer shows a bit of commitment I think. I think he enjoys playing his football at City and will give him maybe one more season if we don't go up. At the end of the day he WILL leave the club, lets just hope he has helped win us promotion before he leaves. Once again, fair play Leroy - if anyone deserves it, he does.

PhatWill Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Here here Rich. He's got a lot of potential and sooner rather than later he's going to be on the move to a club where he can fulfill that potential. Goalscorers are always in demand, and he fits that bill.

Taz Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Like I've said in another thread, I've never pretended to be his biggest fan, nor am I about to change my mind and say he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. He still has his faults, and is far from the complete player - then again he is only 19. He's just scored on his England debut, and to be honest he didn't really look out of place on a field surrounded by Premiership based players. He caused a couple of problems, scored a goal, and generally gave a very good account of himself tonight. He's dedicated the game to Tins, and rightly so. DW didn't think he was ready for the first eleven (to be honest myself and many others on here questioned it as well), however BT had made his mind up that he was good enough, and has stuck by him all season. Well done Leroy for scoring tonight, but also well done for Brian Tinnion for making it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collis Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Its strange to think that Sven and other top managers would have been watching the game tonight. I also belive that Tinman was in the crowd? I would have loved to seen his reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Red Rich Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 From what I've read, didnt Tinman give him a lift home after the game? BRR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRR ← I know he was taken up by the club, although didn't know that it was Tins who went with him. Makes sense though when you think about it, at least Taylor can't tap Lita up with BT there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To score for your country is excellent achievement at any level, I would like to think that the benefit will come our way. At the very least his confidence will be sky high and he will surely benefit from the better standard of coaching. Whether the goal will encourage the Management to include him in the next squad will be interesting. They will at least know they can turn to him again in an injury crisis.

I'm pleased because it puts him in touch with better coaches and better players, all of which are good for his development. well done Leroy. (and he's still got his golden boots!!)
