Taz Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 We've probably made him the highest earner at the club to get him away from WiganTinnion then goes onto admit that he has been disappointed with Dinning since he signed on a permanent basis.He's an experienced player and expects a lot more from him. Come off after 25 minutes yesterday, and never got any sort of acknowledgement from the manager at all.I think we've seen the last of Dinning for a while. The problem is that we are back in the same situation that we were in when Wilson first took over - highly paid players sat on the bench and playing for the reserves because they aren't really interested.Yes we were warned about him, but what gets me is that players seem to think that they can come here get paid and sit on their asses. I'm going to stop there before I get banned from the board...One other point regards Scott Murray - for all of you supporters that were saying he was in the squad because of his relationship with the manager off the pitch, watch and listen to the interview on the main site. Murray isn't in the side because he's been struggling for form, Cotterell has been drafted in and is playing better than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 Dinning has been uninterested since he signed his contract and it was Tinnion who wanted him to sign perminately.What Tinnion and the rest of us saw in the time Dinning was on loan was a half decent player with experience and leadership qualities.We knew that he had a history with Wigan and couldn't wait to get away.We also knew that he'd been on loan at other clubs but none of them wanted to sign him on a contract.Hmmmm..So Tinnion took a gamble and signed him.Unfortunately Dinning has failed to apply himself and put in the same level of performances that he had when on loan.Its Dinning who needs to look at himself.He finds himself in exactly the same situation as he did when at Wigan.Out of favour and before long not even in the squad on match days.Thats not co-incidence,thats Dinnings attitude.The question is what does Tinnion do? leave out his highest paid player? the man who he signed? or does he try to find out whats wrong with him and try to motivate him?Someone said in an earlier thread that City should bring back Brian Jones.Good call,he'd be just the man to help Dinning sort himself out.

PhatWill Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 Dinning needs a damn good kick up the arse next time he enters the field of play in a BCFC shirt.He's big enough, experienced enough and ugly enough to take the abuse he should rightly recieve. Either put in some effort or ##### off Dinning. We don't need lazy, over-paid, I love you's at this club - we have enough of them to get rid of already.

old spot Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 I find it incredible that people who have such an easy job as a pro. footballer can't put in the required effort to be a success at it. Unfortunately there seem to be very many that only seem to care when they need a contract, and with these contracts in the bag are happy to waste away their lives frittering away the exhorbitant wages they recieve, and our club seem rather adept at finding them!Dinning seemed desperate to come to CITY on loan as he knew that at this level we are one of the few clubs willing and stupid enough to sort out his pension!I would love to compare our wage bill wih that of lutons, if effort on the pitch equalled better money then theirs would be ten times higher than ours!!!!I can't wait to see where i am going to find the money for mine and the kids season tickets from this summer.

Maybe he has personal problems or can't settle down here in the West Country. Who knows?At least he should be given the chance to explain himself.

Rednready Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 With players giving media statements every week, its time to hear from Dinning. I think the club should order him to give a media Q&A session. If he is having family problems, then just say he is having personal problems, at least give the paying public some basis for his lack of form.

Rednready Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 One person that fits the bill is currently on loan to Cheltenham ←Been saying it for months, he's creative, and not another Lita/Heffs striker.Other posters have said in the hole behind Brooker and Lita, similar situation, but i think the club should see how it works under match conditions.

Murray isn't in the side because he's been struggling for form, Cotterell has been drafted in and is playing better than him.←Dinning is on good money but like all players signed since the end of last season he earns a heck of a lot more when he plays 1st team football.He is still on a decent wage but those wages goes up a lot more when he plays for the 1st team.When you consider this it makes you wonder what sort of bloke he is when he puts in that little effort when it affects his wage that much.

brady bunch Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Dinning may have been pants, but the defeat was not just down to him, 10 other players need to look at their lazy selfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
