Obviously that is a reasonable discussion, but some of the things people say about him aren't very reasonable. Someone just before I posted that was desperate for Bristol City to sign him as soon as possible. Bizarre talk for a player who's scored four goals from midfield in the last month.
I take it’s this is because you don’t agree with them as you’re always right
 
What happened to that South American wonder kid we signed & loaned him out somewhere. I can’t remember his name

could he be useful addition in the push for top 6?
 
Asking someone why they have to frame everything as a challenge/disagreement is very different from saying people have a right to respond to a question in the first place.

People complain when they wake up to a day's worth of Orange going back and forth with people because every time he responds to a post it has to be a disagreement even when he's trying to make the same point (see above RE loans v Academy development), it just fills so many pages needlessly.

So, what you're saying is it's OK for yourself to do that and no one else...

<laugh><laugh><laugh>

But it was a different point wasn't it?

Yours was that cave can't have it both ways re our development programme, mine was that the loan market was still a useful tool and gave examples of those who'd been out and come back into the first team

Either way that's breathtakingly arrogant, ignorant and condescending on your part.

Not to mention hypocritical in the extreme

Challenge/disagreement is inherent in 90% of posts on a discussion forum.

But I'll try asking the last question again.

If, as has been suggested as a possible scenario there's a chance we could get Delap permanently but that meant we would have to be frugal strengthening other areas, would you do that in this window, or would you prioritise LB, GK, RW and GK and risk not retaining Delap in summer?

.... or would you rather just make snyde comparisons between another clubs signing unrelated to city and one of our loanees?

Or does it hurt your brain too much to put yourself in the clubs shoes and make difficult choices, so resort to mocking, personal digs and schoolyard politics Instead?

Bristol Rovers fans begging for us to recall Ryan Woods. To think we paid actual money for him in that first summer is quite something

Celi is such a wild card, it’s impossible to say if he’ll be around the first team or not. He’s been at a title winning team and it may not be the highest standard in the world but at the very least there will be a half decent level of skill in that squad.

I expect the biggest barriers to his pathway here will not be football related, some take to it like a duck to water, others just don’t (Sinik).
 
I think Woo must have some sort of attitude problem. It’s been a sensational fall from him at 4 clubs in a row, now he’s not even cutting it in league one. He clearly has technical ability on the ball and decent reading of the game so it surely has to be a problem with him applying himself.

He is a ginner after all, and they’re usually gobshites.

You leave little Avid alone.
