He doesn't, still awaiting his first successful cross

Harsh, he's been pivotal in one of the tightest defenses in the championship, and his experience along with Fadz has undoubtedly helped the young defenders settle.

I don’t really like 4 year deals, ties us in too long if we have another Da Costa, Hilßner or Kastaneer failure that nobody wants.
I’d rather 3 + 1 in our favour. If we were to step up to Prem then you aren’t stuck with players who can’t also step up

signing an established championship player is hardly the same as taking a punt on a euro lower league player

Bristol fans not very happy he’s leaving.
Hope Bidwell stays he is good squad player good defender full-back and CB.

In fairness most of “us” recognise he’s second choice to Cam Pring and have no issue with him moving on, we kinda expected it. A likeable character and that’s one of the main reasons why some are bit gutted he’s going…but not footballing reasons. I’ve always liked Jay. When he first joined us before getting shin splints (twice) he was one of my favourite players to watch.
If you’ve seen much of Cam Pring, you’ll see why Jay has left. Cam is the epitome of the modern day left back (Or wingback).
I hope he does well for you.
As for Bidwell, I‘ve liked him since his Brentford days in 15/16 and for for several summers he was on my wish list. If he stays you’ve got a good pair to rotate.

Where aren’t they happy?
Pretty indifferent I think
DaSilva sent to Coventry
As expected - and a four year deal I’d wager is longer than we’d have offered. Best for all parties and good luck to him.

Exactly, that's why Waghorne was such a success.

yes signing a 26 year old is the same as signing someone who was the wrong side of 30

Yep who would give a contract to someone the wrong side of 30?

That pull quote is the most generic footballer interview shit ever
To be fair this is a true genuine quote. He’s joined a championship play off finalist loser team.

We need bidwell...without him I doubt we even have a decent 5 aside team at the moment

Bidwell is versatile and can play LCB.

Sorry old post but not me for one. I'd like to see some assists and maybe a goal or two from that position, we'll be there all year waiting for Byonce

24 games, 0 assists, 0 goals. What's your point? Most frustating player since Dacosta

I wasn't a huge fan of this but he did get better as he went on; the comparison to Dacosta is ridiculous.

24 games, 0 goals, 0 assists. Exactly the same...

Beyonce would be a good signing. I like playing with two up front.

Is anybody looking forward to having this guy on board, what are peoples thoughts on him?
Having a second choice Bristol LWB who’s a shorty isn’t filling me with excitement for the season. We are already a team of short arses lol. He’s not really moved mountains over the last couple of seasons either

Fairly sure most experts on here wrote off Gyokeres as he couldnt get in Swansea team....

He won't have been the highest (?) paid player at Bristol for nothing. I'm certainly looking forward to seeing him. I'm hoping we keep Bidwell too.

Was he really Bristol’s highest paid player?

Because the type of players we go for are the same old shit. It’s hardly like we go after players wanted by half the division.
Da Silva, we were realistically his only option.
Simon Moore, we were his only option.
Todd Kane, only option.
Jake Bidwell, only option.
To be honest. I for one am over us taking chances on players sitting on the benches of teams we want to or should be above and then you have Doug King telling us to join the fucking journey and dig deep in our pockets while shopping in the bargain basement
