But a lot of players only go on loan for a month, HES playing him, strange that he would do that, if YOU seem to insinuate he doesnt rate him.---------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a lot of players only go on loan for a month, HES playing him, strange that he would do that, if YOU seem to insinuate he doesnt rate him.----------not me having a pop, below is what their manager said about him, prior to yesterdays game he was set to be sent back to city, just saying that if the manager their felt he wasn't doing enough to warrant an extended loan prior to the game then perhaps he isn't ready for a starting place with us yetElliot Benyon's return of two goals in five games and the impact he made when replacing Shaun Batt on 64 minutes didn't go unnoticed on the terraces, it was due to be the final match of the teenagers loan spell but he may well have done enough to persuade the City boss to have a change of mind. "Well, I'll be fair, he was (going back to Bristol City) (Colin then chuckled an almost embarrassed chuckle having told the player earlier in the week that his loan was not going to be extended) but I might have to think about it, I don't know."http://www.sacfc.co.uk/index.php?option=co...82&Itemid=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_man_terry Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 sounds like a possible good signing, personally rather have a young hungry striker who in a few apperances has shown a good eye for goal, rather than an old timer looking for his next pay dayhave to say how many experienced forwards are going to drop down to league 1 for a month loan with basically very little chance of a perm deal?

BristolCity1992 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 Sorry but what do you actually know about Adam Rooney, scoring a hat-trick against Brighton and a goal against Reading seems very promising to me.Also the fact that a few Stoke fans quite like him I reckon it could be a inspired loan signing.

megansdad Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 mm I know one club that is prepared to lend out an experienced goal scorer who is scoring goals for the recipient club......but guess this is the wrong forum to mention his name?

Northern Red Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 He looks decent, but let's not forget that this is Pulis we're dealing with. Would you trust him to judge a player, I know I wouldn't.If Stoke are letting him go out on loan, then he must be smaller than 6ft 4, so won't fit in with the type of "hooffootball" that Pulis likes to subject people to.
