The shushing Shipley (3 Viewers)

Love the arrogance of it. Shame he hasn't shown that all season. Needs to do so much more before he can hit back at his doubters.

He gets another year for me but purely because I know he can do better. His championship attempts this season have been nothing short of pathetic

He's still under contract anyway isn't he

Think he will be one that maybe deemed surplus although still has time to adapt/develop to the Championship.
No time for sentimental cobblers if we want to move forward I’m afraid.

I posted about this in the matchday thread and thought it was distasteful. Extremely poor at this level unfortunatly, as much as I want him to do the business as he's a Cov lad. Doesn't have the right to be arrogant after a lucky goal that went in off a defenders backside.

 

[cc84cov]

He shushed then went back to his bottling it self pulling out and jogging after players he’s never at this level pick up a fee and use it in areas we need too

 

[Saddlebrains]

Nowhere near good enough

 

[RFC]

All just opinions, I’ll reserve mine and leave it to those far better qualified than me! MR, Adi & the coaching staff.

 

[larry_david]

Yep agree he shushed after a spawn goal then continued to do everything we've criticised him about. Mainly sitting himself and passing back despite acres in front. Even Clive questioned it

 

[fatso]

Good league 1 player.
We need better if we want to improve.

 

[harvey098]

Good servant and love the ‘local lad’ element etc but if we can get a small fee for him - take it.

.....is better than Ten baggy Bayliss

.....is better than Ten baggy Bayliss

He's certainly has a better career so far , in that regard

 

[Greggs]

Are people expecting us to have a squad full of first-teamers, i'm not sure that's how it works. Good squad player and relatively cheap.

 

[Evo1883]

He's still under contract anyway so unless an offer comes in he's here

I'd argue he's not. Last 8 games when the going got tough, Shipley got ignored

 

[SonofErnie]

Sell him to Sunderland. About their level!

He isn’t-he’s Leamington.

So we had walker who was utterly atrocious today and completely ignored, yet we have yet another thread about the guy who scored. Might not be good enough, that's an opinion but it really is like Groundhog Day.

The bias on this board at times with opinions that are based not on performance but preconceived hatred.

 

[Blind-Faith]

Been useless all season. Thanks for helping us to where we are but needs to go now back down the divisions to find his level

Mate we all know you're Shipley uncle so pipe down.

Walker doesn't shush or put his fingers in his ears when he's scored

 

[rob9872]

You're right he's a striker who cost us £1m and scored 1 in 5 but is seen as the messiah

I haven’t been a fan of Walker but thought he was more involved today

 

[Greggs]

Give him a chance to see how he performs within a fully fit squad, he's only been asked to play when we've been crippled with injuries.

 

[cc84cov]

As if he shushed

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

I wouldnt complain about him being 5th choice behind COH, JJ, New AM, Bapaga

 

[Evo1883]

As if he shushed

You're such a knob

Walker was carrying a knee injury and has been for some time-Robins said so after the game.
You are correct though, there is bias, and we all too often know where yours lies.

You really don't. If you look at my posts I support all of the players who are often digged out, its just that some are more often than others. I defended Burge etc on here too. I thought we were all supporters, you should try it. Seems most would rather criticise and run with the crowd. Being a City fan has always been more than that to me.

 

[covcity4life]

He needs to go. Not good enough for this level I don't care what his missus says online.

 

[rob9872]

And if Walker was genuinely carrying a knee injury then when we're completely safe it was stupid playing him at all.

That's a fair point.

 

[shmmeee]

I think Shipley doesn’t help because he mixes the arrogance with the complete lack of effort. Always going to rile fans up if you aren’t delivering. If he just did the basics like tracking back and putting his foot in he’d get a lot more latitude (look at Max!)
