    I think you're missing the point a bit here.

    We're a professional club and our recruitment is limited to the manager's phone book and offers from agents. It's lazy and nothing else. It's the sort of setup I'd expect from my local Sunday league side.

    Just a hunch, but i think this guy would make a decent Coach or even Manager further down the line.
    Always remember him competing for headers with guys well over 6 foot and never giving an inch, so to speak.

    Have you seen what happened to Neco Williams? He made a mistake against Lincoln and got hounded on twitter for it. He's blacked out his profile. Players are people.

    Still need a centre back and right back. Anyone know what Graeme Lee and Lewis Hunt are up to these days?

    Couldn't possibly be Teflons lack of knowledge of the players in the market.

    Must be someone others fault. Needs more better people around him....doesn't everyone?

    I understand your point but disagree with you. Whats the issue with agents doing some of the groundwork? Its pointless going after someone who wants far more than we can offer and has no interest in coming here. How did we purchase French, Wood as a club? Did you read in the paper today about clubs sacking off their scouting networks. This is clubs higher up than us. I have no issue at all in managers signing players who they know suit their style, they know their face will fit. especially in this day and age of limited resources and squad sizes. If they restricted all signings to this then yes it is limited. McCall has had a lengthy career and has a number of contacts so his book wil be sizeable. I disagee with you saying lazy. Its a circumstantial fact.

    You were saying that nasty fans dont matter to players attitude or wellbeing. The fact that it can and does it proved by my point.
    We dont really give players room to improve. We write them off after the first ten minutes. Can you imagine when you first starting working there was 10,000 booing you? Hiwula is a great example. Played much better when he left.

    Happy with this actually, seems like a player we need and hopefully has a spine.

    You think City fans are different to others? If anything, we're more tolerant of mediocrity than most. We're not a harsh or demanding bunch. Effort, is enough for many of our fans.

    If you cant take criticism or even 'stick', dont play football professionally. That said, I cant think why any footballer uses social media, especially twitter.

    What an over reaction. When have 10000 ever booed anyone? If you are good enough and do well you will get the full backing of the fans. It’s never been different. Footballers know it’s a fickle game.
    Hiwula was decent here and decent when he left. He didn’t drastically improve when he left us. He stayed in the same division
