    It's down to the manager to manager the player so they are not constantly 'wide eyed' about the size of a club

    I'd like to see Hopkin get his teeth into McCartan. I'm convinced that the revelation that O'Brien is simply wouldn't have happened under any other manager we've had since Jewell

    And if the 'kid' is overwhelmed by large crowds ......... He can't expect many more Caps for his Country ......

    The highest I ever played infront of was circa 500 - I would have loved and embraced an opportunity to display my 'talents' before thousands. McCartan has the chances that I didn't ........ Grab 'em whilst you can, kiddo !!

    Fans quoting £50,000 as a reasonable figure?

    If we are paying up 50% of their contracts it doesn’t free anything up as some of them have over 12 months left so we will be giving them at least 9 months wages, somif anything it is reducing what we have available to spend

    Much like Poleon (who scored yesterday) he may have found his level.

    Or, like some of the others in the current squad, he may benefit from decent coaching and some fitness.

    WOAP is wrong and is a vehicle for bitter and twisted ex employees looking to cause maximum damage.

    Rahic realised what no doubt McCall had told himthe previous season. You cannot have a unique pay structure that only City is adopting. He found out players won’t come! He therefore ending up offering ludicrous amounts of wages to bog standard ordinary players. I am trying not to think about the waste of a season, and may also see us relegated.

    Haven't read the article yet but are we so hard up that whatever Lincoln are paying toward his wages means we can't afford to recall him?

    I have to laugh when they get going on the T&A site worse than us on C&B ;).

    I was younger and not so wiser back then so can refuse the bait now. I was also in a relationship then as well so it was a nice distraction not to have to speak to her ;) I'm single now and my moods are a lot mellower now I don't have the earache from her on a daily basis. :cool:

    Shay's basically proven this season he's nothing like League One quality.

    20 mins off the bench today. Throw in Gibson and Jones neither of whom got onto the pitch today plus Patrick deemed surplus to requirements at Yeovil says a lot about our squad.

    Whilst true in part, I have to correct you in that Jones DID get onto the pitch yesterday. He played almost 30mins against Tranmere
