Over the entire season, we have had better results without Marlon King. He has been a disruptive influence and an expensive flop.QUOTE]
As noted above, over the season we've had better results with Turner and Carsley - so the stats can be viewed in a number of ways.
I'm not aware of any evidence of him being disruptive within the club, in fact his work rate on the pitch has been first class (Freddy Eastwood please take note).
As for expensive flop - his scoring record has been excellent since Xmas.
Agree 100% if we are looking at expensive flops there is only one that cost a million or over, that hasn't produced the goods in the current squad... but it's ok i'm sure he will come good next year
An expensive flop, get real! King the one of very few quality players we actually have at the club. The issue was as soon as we started playing him we changed tactics and started pumping balls through to King rather than the other forward, it was predictable. This wasnt helped by injuries at the time but anyone at the games can see the King is a cut above the rest.
Great English... I assume you mean that if King signs you won't get another ticket?king sings again and me wont stay no more again
thanks yeh thats what i say
Its a shame you feel that way but I think I would prefer him on the pitch than you in the stands.
I'm sure we discussed this on GMK to death from every single angle possible, My viewpoint is if he keeps his nose clean fine the second he doesn't then get rid. So far he has kept his nose clean and grabbed his last chance with both hands. He has looked committed and always tried for CCFC. I wasn't happy when he joined as I thought he would possibly get himself back in trouble, he hasn't so far and long may it continue. If a fan doesn't want to support his club because of a player it's up to him but it's not something I would particularly support.Strange morals.

Like you say it's been done to death.......but didn't he raise his hands to an opposition player recently, which is pretty similar to what landed him in prison?!?!
Hardly keeping his nose clean no matter how good he's been for us.

I find it strange that you would pick a Sex Offender over a fellow fan. Somehow I feel a bit of respect for one another has been lost here.
I also don't think for a second that King is rehabilitated, he's been shown two straight reds recently for aggressive behavior. God only knows what he gets up to off the pitch.
He has been a decent pro for us and in the present climate we are as lucky to have him as he is that we gave him a chance.
Despite FIFA's best efforts to dilute the game, football remains a contact sport and as such, incidents will occur that in other circles would be deemed aggressive, but the pitch is different to the street. I'm sure some people would jail boxers for punching each other if they could.
To call the first red aggressive is ridiculous and suggests that you have never really played the game to any standard.
The second red was wrong, but was in retalliation and unfortunately the officials only saw the second part. I imagine he was frustrated at the fact we were losing and players around him were not putting a shift in. No excuse for this one btw just facts.
And yes he is on the S/o register but the way this is banded about is as though he is some kind of nonce which is hardly fair. To make disparaging suggestions that he may have been bad off-field with no substance is lazy, thoughtless typing. He has been a decent pro for us and in the present climate we are as lucky to have him as he is that we gave him a chance.

Listen to yourself, "He's been a decent pro"?? he has been sent off with two straight reds, both for aggressive behavior (That's a professional referee's view), you can try to dress that up however you like but he's not been decent and it sure hasn't been professional.
If he was playing for any other team you would be calling him every name under the sun, take the blinkers off.

I think the nonce comments are stupid, I mean what makes him a nonce about it? I won't get into that debate though.
Fulham are getting a nonce statue outside their ground as well, are many people moaning about that?
Rooney remains a national treasure even though he is banging prozzies off the pitch and then trying to take somebodies head off with his elbow!
professional and referee, contradiction in terms me thinks. We always get shit refs. no surprise, one ref sticking up for another!!!!
Every fan slags other teams players off, its the norm, and yes, if king played for another team we would slag him off but he doesn't, so get behind him and more importantly your team!!!!
I wonder how welcome Lee Hughes would be made if he was scoring goals or our best player.........
I haven't stopped supporting the team because of King and in a way I want him to prove himself to everyone. But at the moment I haven't been won over and will happily debate (within the fanbase) why I haven't been.
Stupid argument.
Jackson wasn't a convicted sex offender AND was widely hated/derided for his actions so calling him a noce and saying Marlon isn't (I never said that or thought it) is silly!!!
Rooney isn't convicted of anything.
Perhaps people are suspicious of Marlon because his last offence wasn't his first....in fact it was his 14th run in with the law. If it was one off people might have been a little bit more simpathetic (not the correct word but...) towards him.

another year contract with CCFC think of it as more punishment for him if you have to
Must be torture for him not even being on the same wavelength as all the players around him I would be surprised if he even considered signing another contract let alone wanting oneAh, now it all makes sense. Lets torture the bastard

Was thinking that, he just looks fed up with the players around him at times.
I'm sure if a decent offer from another club comes in then he'll be orf. Aidy isn't there to protect him anymore either.
