    I think it was more, it’s very important to recruit for this role, however he is very impressed with Simons so that takes the desperation away

    I'm not even particularly sceptical. Just not super impressed by him saying very standard stuff like some people seemed to be last night.

    Super impressed is pushing it. He just always comes across well as he did again, it’s like chalk and cheese compared to Acun who just confuses people and constantly goes back on things he says

    Yeh, and that's what I mean clumsy. If the manager has been clear in not wanting to give away his position on our players then I would think it best not to say anything that essentially speaks for him.

    I took that more as Seri came back a week later so has had less time to work with him. We shall see…

    Yazicis goal scoring record is pretty subpar

    He hasn’t been clear in that at all. He’s been very clear to Mike White n co that questions like the ones Tan was asked should be directed towards Tan & co. Listen to the interview with Mike White and Tim, he explicitly says to ask other people questions about transfers. The position on Simons was only brought up as he fits the mould of defensive midfielder Tim likes.

    I'm confused as to why you're talking about transfers, I've not spoken on that and it's irrelevant to my point. With regards to players, Tim was interviewed and gave nothing away, even after the friendly, when asked about individuals he made the point of saying, no I only want to talk about the group performance so, yes, he has been clear. Or at least clear enough for me.

    I think Rosies style of play and the players we haf in in January gave him a very short window to achieve.

    The chances are this year we'll have a much weaker team, and the powers will know that. I think Walter will get as much time as he deserves and we'll have a slower approach to promotion as we've tried the **** or bust approach and it didn't work out.

    Because that was the context by which he brought Simons up. He said what Tim likes in a holding midfielder and that Simons has really impressed. I don’t think that’s clumsy he’s giving Simons credit for giving Tim a headache

    But according to Acun and Tan last year wasn't **** or bust.
    This is one of the reasons I (and probably others) will wait to see what happens with transfers rather than believe what we're told.

    I did a morning round and then an evening round. Probably earnt about £18 a week but felt like a millionaire ha ha. As you say they dont do them nowadays. Sad really, it was a great intro to work and you would get to meet all kinds of people on your route.

    All clubs do it mate. At the Broncos I would use a couple of fans. Pretend I wanted to have a beer with them and then let stuff slip knowing they would spread it! Politicians do it via social media to test the feedback or resistence to something. Baz is just a little dweeb being used by the bigger lads to aid their growth. Sad thing is he will know that deep down too and still lets them do it to him!!

    Yeah maybe the sentiment is okay but he could say Simons has looked good instead of Tim was impressed so that's where it's clumsy for me, taking it a bit further, did Tim want it known that he's trying to understand Seri? Ultimately it doesn't matter what we think, it's how Tim feels about it that counts and I know I don't like people speaking for me. Perhaps he doesn't care one bit though.

    Indeed, Yazici will never transfer to Championship, better not lose time. Kid was raised as superstar but couldn't reach potential, he will never accept.

    Actually Meunier just contacted Trabzon that he wants to be free agent, using his option. He was very good last season for them. We can approach him.

    He was never a scorer to be honest, usually acts like an attacking midfielder who links midfield and striker but also not great at it. That's the problem with him, he is not a scorer, neither a passer/dribbler, but everybody can see his talent. A bit struggling to find right position to play.

    Anyway, as I said, he won't accept an offer from Hull. Tufan's departure reason was losing NT spot, believe me all Turkish NT players will snub Championship teams to be not like him.
