Favourites to sign Rotherham CB Morgan on a free - #Nixon

Edited May 3, 201511 yr by Ratwhite

We bought a player, it didn't work out. This certainly isn't exclusive to Neil Lennon.

Has he signed anyone who has exceeded expectations ?

I never said it was did I?

No, but others seem to be using this free transfer as a stick to beat Lennon with. He cost nowt, we might even get a fee. Compare that to the money the money lost on (say) Mario Jardel.

 

It's not a huge deal.

Eidur? Not a signing but Holding has been very good.

He definitely is not slow. He looked pacey to me. You can't make stuff up to suit. He wasn't bobbins against Brighton. You make it sound like a Danny Butterfield at Leicester performance. Not true.

Agreed. He has had a long career in Serie A?which is stronger base to judge him rather than one game against Brighton ( when he was probably scared of being bummed ).

2 games

 

I saw him against Preston too

 

It's all about opinions and mine appears to be shared by the management that seems to have about 6 players ahead of him for right back. A couple of them may actually be fullbacks

 

And as for "making up stuff to suit", I suggest Daisy Hillbilly reviews the Brighton match thread where I said exactly the same at the time, instead of bollocks accusations

He was awful and very slow. He kept panicking on the ball and kicking it anywhere.

 

Yes he attempted to overlap, but it took an age

 

I was hoping it was all just rust, but he was shit at Preston too. Didn't see QPR.

 

I'm sticking by this one though, and if he becomes a great player you can pin it and reply to me when he comes good.

 

I don't think he will ever play for us again and was clearly bought "blind"

 

 

Didn't he play about 5 minutes at Preston. How can you judge off that ??

It was about 10 minutes, shhhhh

 

As I said, I'm sticking with this opinion until I'm proved otherwise

Back to new signings, sort of........de der, Wikinson coming back from Barnsley.

No idea why he was given a fairly recent new contract. About as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike. In fact, probably less so. We should have sold him to Barnsley before they found how bad he really was.

I don't think I've ever seen such a disinterested player as when he played against Athy Colls in the summer for the U18's.

Offer for Clough to be submitted early next week

We'll take Lukaku and Barkley for him.

I would make that deal, but we dont own them, we just have them on loan, if you believe the Mirror.

Barnsley had an option to buy him, which they have passed on.

 

He is 21 this month. No excuse for not settling with a BWFC XI, but he may not have known much about their play.

You said he was slow. He's actually quick. No grey area. It's bollocks thrown in accentuate your point that he's shit.

He looked very slow to me against Brighton

 

And shit

 

As I said see the match thread and you see it there at the time

 

I also have said since, perhaps he wasn't fit

 

You can disagree as its about opinions, but don't try to rewrite history by accusing me of only saying it now "to suit"

 

And if he's that quick and good, why is he nowhere near getting in a shit defence Sherlock?

The same reason Wilson isn't? Hasn't done much wrong on the pitch (appreciate Huddersfield wasn't great) but something gone on behind the scenes.

Conjecture at best

 

And you take one example and assume the same conditions for another individual, which in this business is ridiculous

 

Either way, NL can't really afford not to play who he believes are our best players can he?

 

Even if we disagree with him

And for the record, I sincerely hope that Pisano isn't as slow as he looked that day and was just not match fit

 

He'd hardly be he first on their debut; remember Jay Jay and Mendy?

 

However, until we see otherwise it's all we have to go on

Moxey's debut at Watford last season was one of the worst i've ever seen, but even though he looked a lot better in later games, Lennon kept picking the defensively hopeless Ream ahead of him.

Loan out today at 2pm according to Iles, no one important apparently but wages off the books.
