That's right, for all we know Bruce has been told there will be no signings and all he can do is try to keep everyone on board.
We definitely need another striker with Diomande injured again, I think that's why there's a bit of frustration that Bruce hasn't trusted Luer a bit more and given him some more opportunities. Ignore what the other fella says, Luer definitely brings something to the table but he is lacking games and experience. I was impressed with him today despite him being a bit nervous which you would expect for a kid up against a team that means a lot to him, he was very unlucky not to get a goal too

I've got a ticket stub for today And a season pass. And you?
You're trying to divert the conversation.
You asked me what points I agreed with
I told you 3 points
I asked you which of my points you disagreed with
You had no answer.

Please come to a game you'll get an idea what's going on. As it is...

City must have signed Luer for a reason. We need to show the younger players they have a chance if they perform well otherwise why should they bother?

I don't get the situation with Max Clarke. He's supposed to be one of the best up and coming talents we have yet surely he should be going out on loan by now?
 
As by way of explanation, to my hostile and abusive reply to the op, I feel obliged to refer to the quote from tigerscave on a previous thread "Son, as a Police Officer, I get spat at, sworn at, bitten, you name it."

I had given him the benefit of the doubt before, but the only conclusion that I could come to after reading this, is that he is indeed a ****.

I suspect that this board is also suffering from the multi poster syndrome that has affected it and others like it in the past. The symptoms on here appear to be, posters who use references to events and people from the past to endorse or increase their creditability. Posts that say very little except to try and be superior in knowledge, education or life in general.

Getting back to tigerscave, There may well be a serving Police officer on this board, but if you are one, you should either resign or stop posting. I get spat at, sworn at, bitten, cut, run over, punched, and kicked whilst working. If I ever started a sentence with "Son" I think I would deserve half of it anyway.

Great post Tom but i disagree. There may be coppers on here, I dunno,but so what. Its anonymous, as it should be.
This place is great to talk football and let off steam and have a laugh.

I hope you've suspected that for a while. I suspect there's at least two with around a dozen accounts between them.

I don't mind having coppers on here, in fact I do think that there could be one poster who is. But if Tigercave is one, he shouldn't be.

I agree about the forum. I don't mind the multi posters, whatever turns them on, I just think that others on here should be aware that the anonymous nature of a forum, gives some opportunities to play games.

Alright i admit Im me and PLT. Happy now? No not him.
 
Have to agree with some of that to be fair.
Luer should have started over the soon to be out of contract Alouko who clearly has no future here.
It would of been nice to see Max Clarke at left back and rest Robertson.

I have been to most U21 games this season and Max Clarke isn't good enough, he just hasn't moved on after looking a good prospect. It could be that he is having a dip in performance and will push on again, but this season hasn't done enough. Matty Dixon could step up as can Greg Luer and I like Olley, but I do agree that I would like to see them get game time in the cup games.

I recognised one from the first time I looked at this site. In fact, I do not think I have ever replied to one of his posts.

Chazz, there is more of a chance that you are also Charlie one!
