Most liked posts in thread: Patrick out on loan to Wrexham

Slagging the kid off like its his fault he wasnt good enough for League 1 football. Only at BCAFC. Embarrasing.

 

Who offered him the contract? Should he have said no thanks im not good enough to play for Bradford at 20 years old with zero league experience and walked away?

 

Hardly a consistent approach when another poster insults @Ricc and their post is not deleted

 

Sheff Utd are doing well, so we cash in more at the end of the season.

Handy for next years deficit.

 

I think Devine needs confidence in himself. Something that was knocked out of him with his injuries then being played as back up right back every now and then. A settled run within a settled set up would see him blossom IMO.

 

Got the same amount of goals in the game as another on loan player from us for Fylde


GK - Sam Hornby

 

And again...

Ducking great?

 

Could be Drury Bronco, but this is happening too often for
something not to be wrong with our coaching.If we had
Doyle's goals this season we would be clear top and coasting!

 

Bottom line: Doyle is effective in the right team.

Here, he was ineffective. And idle.

At Swindon, he is in the right place at the right time - not to be confused with a workhorse.

He would be much better staying at Swindon than coming back here - anyone who cannot see that I have to wonder about...

 

Wow your a hard man to please,
You can only beat whats infront of you, that first goal wasn't easy IMO the ball was actually played behind him.
Alan Clarke (maybe before your day) a great striker for both Leicester and Leeds who was known as "sniffer" as he was a predator in the box, many of his goals coming from other players hard graft getting the ball into the box, but boy could he finish.

 

Just had a look. They love him dont they. Maybe he has found his level, or maybe we get back a player at the end of January full of confidence and ready to push on here. I suspect the former, but would love to be proved wrong

 

Good move for him to get some regular minutes, the initial 1 month seems to suggest it's a trail with a view to a longer term loan which would be a great opportunity to put himself in the shop window in the summer.

 

He isn't good enough for League 2 football either.

He picks up a wage and isn't justifying that wage so yeh, he is open to criticism.

 

you're joking, right?

okay so we're never again allowed to criticise any players, because 'its not their fault'.

it's not just league 1 he wasn't good enough for, it's also league 2, national league, national league regional, isthmian premier, under 23 premier league, reserve league, midlands league, sunday league.... the list goes on.


the kid is absolutely, unequivocally rubbish at football.

 

Good luck to him. He raised everybodys expectations of him with that winner against Blackpool on debut. I do agree to a point with some of the comments on this thread in so much that if you are an 18 year old car salesman doing well at a local, small independent dealership, and suddenly Aston Martin come along and offer you a very generous package to join them, you snap their hands off and take it in a heartbeat. From your point of view, the experience you'll gain working in the big leagues is invaluable. You'll learn from the best, develop yourself into something better and who knows where that will lead to. But the pressure of working at that level becomes too much, times have changed and they need instant results rather than afford the time to nurture someone making their way in the game and even though you're essentially doing the same job as before, Aston Martin let you go.

Thats as much on Aston Martins recruitment policy as anything else.

 

Have City now totally abandoned the idea of having a forward line....?

 

Ah, that's where I'm going wrong then!
