You have a rotten attitude though to ccfc. Say we r shit in a season we finish 16th. Should we get rid of you?No stats needed, just a chat with the player and someone good at judging his attitude. Thinking further back to big duds like Kyle/Eastwood/McKenzie all 3 were just not in the right place mentally.
Flip flopToo ponderous on the ball typical arsenal player all about looking nice on the ball...Walsh is far superior sheaf is the type of player to go missing in battle Eccles is better going by robins comments,£750k when we need the budget in other areas

It’s not that easy and you know it
One can never be sure even after viewing the stats and then spending time watching the player. If someone can come up with a way of assessing resilience in a statistical kind of way that may be a missing picture.
Madness - doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome. Maybe we were wrong to expect we could do something different with kastaneer and despite the talent the reason he was playing at the level he was and no more was because he was only good enough for that
Different with potential cause we don’t know always why a Maddison happens and a Bayliss happens. That’s a real skill to recognise what will happen
TrueDid I say it was?
True
YepTalent and drive in isolation put a ceiling on how far a player can go, when combined in abundance there is no limit. The same as in any walk of life
In Eastwood's case he was never in the right place when the ball came into the box!No stats needed, just a chat with the player and someone good at judging his attitude. Thinking further back to big duds like Kyle/Eastwood/McKenzie all 3 were just not in the right place mentally.
It won't all be paid in 1 lump either, it will be a structured deal.It’s because we are essentially a self-proclaimed ‘small time’ club. Filters through in a lot of what Robins/Boddy say. I don’t mind it though as it tempers expectation. £750k is a paltry fee in the Championship.
All stats are flawed thenI haven't said to ignore the stats have I? but they're floored, they don't take into account variables like quality of opposition players, How they set up to play, how you set up to play, teams you haven't played etc. Playing a team like Tranmere will give you far different stats to playing a team like us or Sunderland. Stats won't tell you that you played against the worst performing teams but were injured when you had to play 8 out of the top 10.
Re; the last sentence, If you want to use stats then you need to break it down more, pointless putting a pass that leads to a 60 yard hopeful shot on target, and a killer ball that your striker blazes over from 5 yards lumped in together.
The game was long over Millwall were sunbathingSheaf looked good when he came on yesterday, always available as an option, turns both ways, gets his head up. If he grows into his potential he's a major upgrade on Kelly as Sheaf can put his foot in as well
ROI would be better with Walsh.
What's your point?The game was long over Millwall were sunbathing
What's your point?
Whereas Eccles is the next best thing based on playing well in the same circumstancesHe means it doesn't count as it doesn't fit his agenda.

This argument frustrates me. All will be like that and all going out will be like that, so it doesn’t really mean anythingIt won't all be paid in 1 lump either, it will be a structured deal.

Tbf it's just Ireland isn't it?Don't think we can afford the whole of Southern Ireland
That just sounds like BS to me.He's in the top 5 of all players under 25 who were once on the books of Arsenal and have the initials B.S.
Hope that clears things up
What news?I was not quite as surprised by the news as some given his acute lack of game time and impact on the overall season. Clearly has scope to improve and I can only assume Robins feels he can use the budget in better ways? Perhaps on James no doubt high wages or maybe to bring in a top quility forward.
Wish Ben well and will be interesting to see where he goes next.
No news.What news?
ignoring the fact they have another 6 weeks under contractNo news.
I assume the 'people going back to their parent club' news has given the 2 + 2 = 5 impression for some that he won't sign.
Not really a surprise that when you have a player on loan with an obligation to buy who it has been reported has to meet certain conditions for that obligation to kick in, and may not meet those obligations, that people might think they aren't signing when the club put up a news article saying they've been sent back to their parent club.I assume the 'people going back to their parent club' news has given the 2 + 2 = 5 impression for some that he won't sign.

Could have said the player has returned to his parent club pending completion of the previously agreed transfer to make it clear.
Either the obligation still exists or it doesn't so either way the statement could be clearer.We aren't allowed to sign anyone at the moment though are we because of the embargo? So perhaps even if we intend to we can't?
