Thought I should post this as there is so much negativity regarding footballers these days. I was in hospitality last night and what a great night to chose to do it! the advantage of going in there is getting to meet the man of the match after, which happened to be Luke Freeman, and last night luckily for us the sponsors of certain players shirts did the presentation of the signed shirts from the players, this included Frankie, Korey, Agard, Flinty and Wilbs. All in great spirits too. (I had had a few Ashtons) Very impressed with their attitude to the fans, gave loads of time to shake a hand and take photos with the kids, it wasn't a problem, This has not always been the case in the past! Luke Freeman was more than happy to let me have his MOM trophy from Sky for a photo too! Top man. (all of them) I gotta love how they present themselves as a unit now, in the right way, even to a merry 50 year old loon who had drank too much.
My uncle (who took me to my first game, on my granddads orders) auntie and cousins were there on Tuesday night. They've been there a few times this season, they always say to us we ought to come over with them sometimes as it works out good value, meal ticket and the bar is never packed. But they've also commented on the players how they all seem as a unit and possitive. Went there years and years ago, but I got pissed off with those stantions in the Williams. Now I miss a chunk of the corner because of the roof, ready for the Dolman stand
That's brilliant I think you've got to put a lot of it down to SC. He has changed the mental attitude and the approach to so many things.
I once "employed" Sean Dyche to do a charity presentation for me. It was made clear that such "community" work was expected from all players. Having spoken with him I would never have thought that he would go on to be a top manager. Now that's a thought Agard in charge in 20 years time instructing everyone to run around like headless chickens. Thank the lord that I shall be pushing up daisies by then
You might find Kieran Agard finds some confidence from scoring such an important goal on Tues night and goes on to score the goals that see us over the line, his performance was certainly unselfish and all action, you would have to know a bit about football to understand that though, a lot of our fans won't be able to see it! Lucky for us Cotterill can!
It sounds from what I hear that Kieran has a great work ethic in training (as his work rate in games bears out) and has been a model professional. With those qualities he could make a good manager in 20 years time
A cynic might say that as he is on £15k a week he has to play. Still it is all about opinions I like to see strikers who are skilful and have pace. My preference as a spectator is Jet . SCs preference as a manager is Agard. Simple as
Can I ask where you get the information he gets 15k a week from apart from presumptuous rumours on rival websites?
knocked Agard recently, BUT even without his goal, i thought it was his best game for a l o n g time against Swindle.
No I'm just a Bristol City fan who would like to try and help out one of our players who may be a bit short of confidence rather than just destroy the bloke for little more than an ego trip. It wasn't that long ago Aiden Flint was rubbish and needed to be replaced urgently! (have a look at some of the regular posters on here views of him just 9 short months ago!) Now its love-in time.! Oh and the same happened with Sam Baldock! No one answered my question about how they know so much about our players wages?
