No such thing as loyalty in football anymore.

 

Does it? What does it say?

 

Read @Tolly856 post and think about the law.

 

I'm telling you know if we do then I really think @Tolly856 is correct and I for one would question Reeves also.

Said all along something isn't right about all of this.

No way a player is out for 20 months and comes back in to a squad like he's been injured for a week. No chance.

When I say see him I am not including being on the bench.

 

What kind of mismanagement caused him to get injured?, just curious because I genuinely cannot remember.

What makes you say he was mistreated for the majority of his time out injured?

 

Can't remember who it was that said he was over trained by Edin's coach when he wasn't fully fit.

 

I don't know anything about any mis management(allegedly) but I wouldn't discount what Tolly said. I do believe the club are doing the talking and the player isn't which highlights to me that something isn't right or hasn't been right.

So,if what you're saying is true then Reeves could have a case could he not?

 

Ha I don't bottle things pal.

 

It's based on him being out for 20 months. Nearly 2 year! And some thing he can just act like nothing has happened. If the injury was that serious then no way would we be rushing him back. He played in one of the most pointless games of the season and did well but come on!

Anyway, considering we're talking about one of our players and one of ex players needs our support urgently in Darby then it will be to the Darby Rimmer MND fund.

So not to feature in the league before Christmas. He can be on the bench.

If I am wrong then damn Bradford City must be desperate to send early Christmas presents.

 

I've told you about the bet.. Rimmer Darby Foundation.

22 months and you're acting like it was yesterday.

 

Not at all, all along I have said the club will manage our injured players be that two weeks two months or as you say 22 months.
You've heard why the lads injury went backwards, unfortunatly at the time Drury was our head coach and had far too much on his plate and took his eye off the Jake Reeves sitution.
Hopkin had to get us back up and running in the league, again more to worry about that Reeves.
Bowyer comes in and openly says he will not rush injured players back as in many cases it is detrimental to both the player and the club.

Darby/Rimner Foundation I'm not bothered, so I take it you have accepted the bet, good man.

Bloody hell @Tolly856 , I agree with you 100%. Well said.

 

I think some people have selective memories when it comes to the Hopkin era. Remember the club was a basket case when he took over and he was tasked force a quick turnaround. Of course he outed players. That's what was needed. His handling of Reeves was born out of pure frustration that one of the supposedly better players he inherited wasn't around to contribute and stop the tailspin. Remember there was no opportunity for him to shuffle the pack. Bowyer has shown great patience and skill to finally see Reeves back on the pitch. To criticise and compare this approach to Hopkin is ridiculous. He simply didn't have this luxury and rightly focussed on the meagre pickings of what was available.

 

Hopkin was one of Rhodes biggest mistakes last year and a massive reason why we went down.

Going from Collins to Hopkin is like going from Anderson to Devine. Utter useless!

 

Seriously... sorry to Rhodes!

Damn so Edin appointed Collins and Hopkin?? Wow that's poor.. Mr"I know football" was awful for this club... it's lucky that we still have one. He was that bad.. not even in a greedy way.

He voted "Leave'' and now doesn't want to be seen in daylight, as he got mugged off.

So, only comes out at night now.

 

Hi @1975citygent

Hi @1975citygent

Ha see what I did?

Anyway, look if any player in world football and I am including Sunday league had been out for near 2 years I don't expect them to be back to their best for around 6-12 months.

Reeves played well in a Mickey game and to be honest it's embarrassing that Anderson couldn't look better than Reeves but I couldn't take yesterday's game seriously.

I don't think Anderson & Devine are not good enough for Bradford City but a fit Reeves in Div 2 has a chance but I hope we don't rush him because it's going to take time for him to get up to speed.

 

Interesting interpretation - the other is Reeves leaves to put his injury nightmare behind him.

He's probably a big earner.

 

Would be the correct and sensible thing to do.
