    Well I hope you're right because if he plays like last season he'll be a waste of a wage.

    And that’s down to the style of player, isn’t it? Give me a Greg Abbott who just went about breaking up play and keeping it simple, than a Leigh Palin who could ping Hollywood passes easily and would be more remembered because of it.

    The fact is, Butterfield was poor and was dropped by both his City managers. Anderson kept his place and actually got better as the season came to a close.

    Butterfield was never dropped, Bowyer played others ahead of him in the last few games so that they could win a new deal for this season. Whenever Bowyer spoke about him he never had a bad word to say and always highlighted what he thought was his championship class. I don't think he got better either, for me he got worse. His first game I thought he did decent by keeping it neat and tidy but that soon went out of his game and he looked lost. Like I said earlier its going to take a massive turn around for Anderson to be anything other than a squad player for us.

    Actually, you said Butterfield contributed less than Anderson.

    Yet all the majority remember from Anderson was none existent and uninspiring performances. Butterfield, meanwhile had 2 man of the match awards and a winning goal that bagged us 3 points.

    I really shouldn't have to point that out to you if you've actually been watching the games.

    How many goals did Darby score in his career? But how many times did he clear off the line/make last ditch tackles? Scoring a winning goal or “bagging us 3pts” doesn’t necessarily mean his contribution is greater. Surely I shouldn’t need to point this out to you?

    The fact remains that Bowyer chose Anderson over him, so clearly thought his contribution to the team was greater

    Go on then, point me out some examples when Anderson made a last ditch tackle or goal line clearance?

    In fact, give me a good example of when he influenced a game.

    I've given you 3 examples of Butterfield clearly influencing games, let's see if you can match it.

    I don’t need to... let me remind you of my last comment

    “The fact remains that Bowyer chose Anderson over him, so clearly thought his contribution to the team was greater”....!

    In other words, you can't.

    Discussion over then.

    True Anderson kept his place whilst Butterfield was in and out. So Bowyer obviously thought he was contributing more. Preferred Butterfield when he played further forward

    FFS please stop this. It's just a matter of personal opinion and neither of you is going convince the other to change their opinion. It's getting really tedious.

    Anderson scored the ‘winning’ goal against Scunny. Well he didn’t actually but more so than Butterfield doing so against Peterborough.

    As @Offcomedun@Offcomedun has stated, we aren’t going to agree, so I’ll leave it there.

    Both as a bad as each other really. @NorthernMonkey@NorthernMonkey must of quoted 4 of my posts on the bounce in different threads, if you look for a slanging match on here then you'll probably get one.

    As for Anderson, said it before he's going to have a good season.

    My comment has added more to the thread than your backwards and forwards crap though hasn't it?

    I'd already said discussion over and stopped replying, I'm not sure what more you wanted me to do.

    In fact, there was only 4 replies from myself on the topic anyway, it's hardly pages and pages to trawl through!

    The fact is Anderson was picked more than Butterfield which gives us the managers take on the argument

    or that Butterfield was only ever here on loan and Anderson would be available for this coming season.

    The aim was to try and stop up in any case Anderson only had till the end of the season
