Good chance for him to have a fresh start and also shows we can move on without the distraction that he had become. i think he will shine and play really well for 5 months get the move then settle into his old ways , Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danke bitte 965 Posted February 1, 2022 I look at it this way, scored some great goals, saw his first senior one against Rotherham in that amazing 18/19 season, has provided some great moments and I thank the guy for it. I hope he’s inspired some kids from Dereham too. Its a bit sad he’s left as he has but I wish the guy well. I hope he settles in and cracks on. Just became apparent he thought himself bigger than the club which is a shame or that’s the way his frustration manifested itself. But the guys’ 23 so plenty of time to grow up. Unfortunately not all players can be as resolutely professional as Aarons, but such is life. He moves on and so do we. They’ll be another hero sooner or later, just a shame it’s likely they won’t be from Dereham! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He fell out with Webber over contracts, but was good on the pitch which was the main thing. Then this season he fell out with Farke after he was left out of the team as it went more defensive. Everything else is just tittle tattle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted to get out and as soon as I knew it was a possibility it was a pretty easy option for me,” he told the Bournemouth website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 3,283 Posted February 1, 2022 Says it all really, so Bournemouth wasn’t his choice it was the only route out! Wow and there’s still those who have some background stories of why Cantwell decided not to train and play for the club. Well glad it’s all done and I hope for his sake he doesn’t do the same otherwise he’ll be back in the summer! If he is I’d extend his contract and make him play in the under 23’s!

To be fair when you had a bunch of top 6 clubs Prem showng interest in you the year before and then here we are now and the only club you can secure a move to is the OAP bus-stop known as Bournmouth in a lower divison you'd not be feeling too good about it I wager. Seen some comments on social media of Bournmouth fans being a little bemused with all this and seemingly both happy to have gained him as a player but at the same time are clearly aware they were not his first choice, far from it..

Just another tired old boring one made up by someone with far too much time on their hands and relies upon Smith, Farke and Webber all lying. It definitely did. I don't understand where Farke lying comes into it, he called Cantwell out for it various times as he tried to get Cantwell to recover focus. It worked in 20/21 during his other episode (another strong indicator of his attitude) but sadly didn't work this season. And Smith did publicly back Cantwell recently, yes, but it was mentioned during a time where he is away on loan and looking to be sold in the summer for the best possible price. Funny that. Where Farke was simply trying to get Cantwell to sort his **** out, Smith now knows that it cannot be sorted. Hence the change in narrative. If there hasn't been an attitude from Cantwell then how would you summarise the events chicken, how does a player go from one of our brightest prospects and most important players to actively being offloaded for one third of his market value as recently as 6-7 months ago?

Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted February 9, 2022 All that had been put down to Farke was now an issue that included two head coaches. Despite Smith’s appreciation of Cantwell’s ability, there was a sense his early conversations were having little impact on the player’s performance levels. Others at the club observed a difference between Cantwell’s current performance levels and his perception of where he should be at, whether that is club football or beyond.

I wasn’t aware you were privy to my life. Im entitled to my opinion much like you are, in this instance it’s based on my knowledge / experience that’s a little closer to the situation than most. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
