Just Googled Tymon Oatcake and from the little written about him after the season began, them seem to agree. Also, most feel that he's wasting his time there this year as 'he's miles off' http://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/thread/268798/josh-tymon?page=21
Agreed. It's like he's ****ing Che Guevara on here to some. Embarrassing. It's like the Allams starved him out of the club.
In fact I've just had a look at the match report and Hughes opted to play a centre half at left back instead of Tymon. He started on the left wing and was crap.
As I've already said....i didn't say he should stay with us, I said at this stage of his career he should be playing week in week out
Nobody's claiming he's the world's best left back, though from what we've seen so far, he's far better than Kingsley (who we paid millions for, while agreeing to pay him what we wouldn't offer Tymon).
Hooked at half time after having a stinker. A 20 year old winger was preferred at lwb in the next game who had never played at lwb. An excellent post below from this oatcake forum. Sums it up really. It's no real surprise as 18-year-olds starting Premier League games are as rare as hen's teeth. But this was the fear when he joined - that he was a contender-but-not-really-a-contender - and leaves us desperately short on the left. And it means that Tymon himself is effectively wasting a key development year when he should be out on loan playing 30 games.
Jarrod seems to be on the England U21's radar. http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/jarrod-bowen-radar-englands-under-572372
As far as Tymon is concerned, I guess the ideal situation for all parties would be that if he was hell bent on signing for Stoke, then to have agreed he stays at City on loan for this season. Unfortunately the way Ehab seems to have handled the whole thing, made that an impossibility.
Stoke signed him as a second choice left back, but upon seeing him,Hughes seems to have decided centre halves and wingers are a more appropriate fit for that role.
Seems to have played a blinder with Bowen though eh? He signed when Tymon wouldn't and has now signed another one.
To be fair, you were utterly slating young Clark a few weeks’ back – who’s now picked up - so we’ll see how Kingsley develops. The fee for Kinglsey is probably bollocks anyway and just a method of scamming Chesterfield. I can’t guarantee its authenticity, but it was in the public domain that City’s final offer was around 3k p/w? The figure that most ‘self described’ ITK types were saying that Tymon would have accepted as he was simply desperate to stay.
I despise the Allam regime and have opposed it since pre-season 2013 (unlike most of the Italy during WW2 types on here). However, for me, the main story is: local boy sacks off local club for more money elsewhere.
No it wasn't. There's been absolutely nothing in the public domain to suggest anything remotely positive about this situation, which makes it all the more bizarre that some people are so determined to believe the unlikely version of events that Ehab was really sensible about it all and couldn't do anything more. The obvious reason is Tymon's age. Ehab will have failed to understand why a 17-year old should be on a pro contract and ignored the few football people left at the club who'll have been telling him to get it sorted. "But he's 17, we can keep him on a scholarship for a couple more years can't we?" This is where that arrogant Allam thinking comes in; the belief that everyone in football has it wrong and they know so much better because soundbusinessprinciples. The same as how Ehab can't understand how kids get tickets cheaper in football (they don't get generators cheaper and it's the same seat after all) and how Assem couldn't believe that he had to apply to an external body to change the name of his (sic) club. It's all just classic Allam stuff; completely out of touch with the real world.
He was offered a contract silly ****. His agent talked him out of it. He fell for it. As Leon says the story is local boy ****s off for more money elsewhere and to **** with his career development.
I know you think you can just slam your first on the table and scream that you're right but it doesn't work like that. Just because you state your version with anger and aggression doesn't make it true. Tell me one reason or one piece of evidence that I should believe your version of events which comes across as desperately wanting to be in the know rather than the much more realistic one that much more trustworthy posters have offered?
Who's,angry. You are a silly ****. I posted on here stretford had his claws Into him and his dumb family well before any contract talk. Trustworthy my arse. He was offered a contract, he didn't sign it. Why not? Any hull kid gets the chance to sign for hull city, the club that nurtured him would be snapping their hands off. Stretford planted stories in the press, to ease the move, what was it150 quid a week. Ye right. Dummies like you want to believe that so it works. I know a youth player who got 6 grand to be on the bench last season for a league cup game. So bollocks to any 150 quid a week. He's ****ed us off. Let him ****ing rot at stoke.
You're not angry but again call me a silly **** out of nowhere. I can't imagine what your posts would be like if you were angry. Yes OLM is trustworthy. He's been a good source of info for years. Cortez says he knows the kid and everything he says matches everything that OLM says on the subject. Why wouldn't I believe their account against mental Chazz who always, without fail, has a version of events that makes the Allams innocent whatever the subject? If we accepted your version of events for every Allam scandal they'd be absolutely free of fault.
