No I said give it a rest. I didn't say criticism is never warranted nor did I say everyone has to be a happy clapper. But slating a player before he's played a minute for us is just daft.

Coming from me what?

Why is it?
We do it all the time

Hopefully he will be good
But its hardly inspiring

People are critical of signings and then once everyone is aware of their position they don't keep labouring the point as you're now doing. As I said, give it a rest. We know your stance.

Mason Burstow story. Very humble with a tough upbringing.

Good luck Mason.
Cheers for posting GLP. As an adopter, that one really got me! He certainly sounds like he deserves all of our support, especially as it might take him a while to settle. I'm feeling really positive about the lad as a signing though. UTT.
 
For Burstow. You never know how much a permanent move for a young lad could allow him to settle and kick on rather than being loaned out every year to a different set up. He looks to have raw ability but needs to be fine tuned and is in the "watkins" mould that Walter apparently wants. Can think of a couple moments early in the game last night where a striker with raw pace would have been useful.
The great thing about having TW here, is that he 'cut his teeth' at under 17 and Under 19 level before going into management. Great for the club IMO.

I bet, it’s very heart warming. My Grandma used to provide emergency foster care despite having 5 Children of her own. It’s vital support and huge kudos to any parents that offer adoption. Giving Children the opportunity to flourish.

I agree
Always had massive respect for people who foster and adopt
Knew someone who was adopted after their family was murdered in the rwandan genocide in the 90s
A lot of times kids who are fostered are almost broken due to circumstances out of their control
And the respect, attention and devotion from people who foster is honestly remarkable
Literally does change peoples lives

Wow, people like your grandma are just incredible. It really takes a special person to offer up that kind of support.
Thanks GLP, they are doing well.

I can sort of relate to the lad i was adopted in hull different circumstances to his but know the bad side of the crap you go through to end up in the situation, that is why i really hope he smashes it and for his aunt and uncle to who cared for him more to this than just football there is a feel good factor in it for him the fans and the club hopefully.

My son and his wife have just adopted 2 girls. The process was rigorous (and rightly so) and took about 18 months. Hopefully the cases you refer to are few and far between nowadays. I am delighted to have 2 new grand daughters!
