I don't mind him using us a stepping stone, that's football. I do mind him not trying for the last few months of his time here. Big meh from me him coming back.

Would you have stayed?



Isn’t that a stupid question?
I support Town
You can’t compare me to a professional footballer

Who?

Not bothered.

Got more things to worry about than a player who was here for a season and was bang average.

No end product......he'll score a hat-trick today now I've said that  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Blame his agent, then Slade brought him in, just maybe he liked Slade (hard to believe) and he thought his time was up.
I just think a full first season was too much for him.
He certainly lost form. I didn't think he was that bad.

He was just about the only player to get people exciteed when he received the ball over  the last few years. People are saying how wonderful Vernom is/will be yet I have yet to see him do anything much apart from dribble the ball from one side of the pitch to the other or lay on the physios table, Siriki was ok and would only get better with experience (hes played a few in the league above last season) Did he stop trying or was the team/management so terrible that he was just brought  down to that level.

Not fussed either way, perhaps if we weren't such a shambles at the time and he was developing nicely in a team going places he might have wanted to stick around a little longer.

He was a kid that was chucked into his first season head first. Suffered with loss of form and niggly injuries which is to be expected. We were absolutely crap and there was a toxic atmosphere at the club.

Seems to have settled in just fine in the league above, funny how so many of our ex players are apparently not that good according to some fans, even though they go on to bigger and better things.

Young talent gets head turned by bigger club offer, aided by greedy agent fueling the fire.... It's nothing new and sadly it'll probably happen to us again before too long.

To be honest it was only when I saw that interview that I realised it would be his return to BP.

Brought us bucket loads of excitement in those first few months, a beacon of hope amongst the dross of that Slade side. He moved on, so did we. Doesn't strike me as a Jolley type at all so probably would have moved on regardless.

It’s all about context though. Nobody ever doubted his skill and ability, but plenty were concerned about his desire to help the TEAM and dig in for a fight. When he wanted it, he was great. When he didn’t, it was like playing with 10, and we weren’t in a position to be carrying people when we were staring the conference in the face.

I’m sure he’s great for a team that spends a lot of time attacking from a position in & around the League 1 playoffs - not as much impact when you’re 20 without a win at the bottom of League 2.
