On 1 thread, the Scottish Premier league (aside from the top 2) is equivalent to League 1 and we should take no notice of how well an ex-player is doing. And on this one Stuart Webber has failed by not signing a player nobody has ever heard of from said league?

baldy09 160 Posted May 16, 2023 You have all got it wrong- reports are Delia cooked him a meat pie but alas he wanted vegetarian pie with chips - that was it - Im not coming over now he stated- plus the crust was far to dry and flaky- Webber tried to throw in a custard pie- but alas it hit him between the eyes- 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,224 Posted May 16, 2023 1 hour ago, Bomber said: Yeah Soccerbot at a cost of whatever seems to have really helped our team To be fair our passing stats are generally very good. We had the 4 highest number of progressive passes and carries this season. We had the 4th highest number of passes, attempts and accuracy % at 78.6%. The third highest distance covered by passing and the 4th most progressive (forward passing). We also had the highest number of chances created per 90. Shooting however, the 8th worst % shots on target, from the joint 5th highest number of shots taken says it all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must be a guarantee for first team football. This. I assume you are right or maybe Bristol just really wanted him and were prepared to go all out. I’m not going to worry if we miss out on a target personally, if it becomes a pattern that will be a concern. The fact we have apparently landed Barnes despite others interest shows we can land targets we want, but you can’t win them all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGoogler 324 Posted May 16, 2023 Always think the mark of a good transfer is the reaction of the fans of the club he's leaving behind. Well.... A quick read showed a spread of views but most are not terribly bothered. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see strong evidence we were even interested. The reports say Bristol beat financially stronger sides and say Norwich and West Brom we're interested. Says nothing about Norwich being the side they outbid. Could be wrong of course and I know you like a moan, so whinge on my friend.

Mason 47 1,398 Posted May 16, 2023 If we were actually involved, which sounds tenuous anyway, I'd suggest we had 'cheap punt' in mind as a back up. Either way Bristol were clearly more ready to commit the money to it. Transfers don't work linearly as many seem to think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
