I'm all for a 20-25 goal striker who does nothing else, but he isn't it (apart from the nothing else bit).
Decent manager might bring it out in him but he hasn't got one, and better managers have failed to.
My thoughts also, If he had scored half of the sitters he has had and not fluffed the one on ones (he has created) the fans would be behind him
I have hoped since his arrival he would come good but.................
whereas davies was a cheap punt, who since his arrival has just seemed to run around like a headless chicken and delivering F all, but this season has looked a threat, created problems in oppositions defences and really looks a different player

One day we'll find out what went on about the centre-half thing with him here.

Maybe.

Does anyone care about Jordon Ibe anymore?

Tricky Al still does

Mind you, he was banging on about Rhodes signing last summer. Maybe he's a big Katie Price fan. I know I am.

Anyone who's already paid The Sun care to relate what it says after the second paragraph?

I don't know what it says in the Sun, but, from Nixon's comments on twitter, the player hasn't been asked who he'd like to join and Liverpool will leave it up to him. Our bid for him was accepted last week. Nixon seems to be hinting (on what basis, I have no idea) that the player would prefer us.

So he's joining Derby.

What a sack of shite.. He isn't playing CB because Blackburn want him there.. He is there because of injury! He started the first game out wide and had to move inside at half time due to injury and no backup CB.

As soon as players are fit, he will be back out wide and crying again.

It makes me laugh how he thinks CB is his best position but can't stay on his feet when someone is running at goal. Penalty machine.

Ibe has signed for Derby on loan.
Today Manchester City's engineer has said that the following players can leave on loan: Richards, Nastasic, Guidetti & Sinclair. We haven't got a chance with any of em! Boo Hisss!

Hardly surprising. However, no doubt there are other, equally implausible Jord[o|a]ns for Tricky Al to link us to.

Expect stories suggesting we're about to sign Jordan Henderson and young Lancashire all-rounder Jordan Clark.

I wouldn't mind trying to sign Guidetti on loan in a The Juke type of role. Not going to happen but we can dream
Pfffft.

Clearly we need to try and sort our loans out as early as perm transfers. Before they realise how shit we are.

Just a thought but could ED be keeping money back to get rid of Dougie and that's why we can't bring players in?
Pfffft.

DOUGIE Freedman believes he still has the backing of Wanderers owner Eddie Davies and chairman Phil Gartside despite the club’s poor start to the campaign.

The Whites sit third bottom with one point from five games after today’s 1-0 defeat at Elland Road.

Many fans have called for a change in management but speaking after the final whistle at Elland Road, Freedman claimed the club’s hierarchy was still behind his rebuilding efforts.

“I completely understand that people have got their own opinions,” he said. “We’re in one thinking process at the top (of the club). They understand where we are and what we’re trying to do.


“I have been asked to do a job and that’s to lower the wage bill but also try and keep the football club moving forward. It’s very difficult.

“I don’t think that was a problem today. I think it was that desire to keep the ball out of the back of the net.”

Wanderers had several clear-cut chances to earn at least a point at Elland Road but Freedman was amazed his side emerged pointless, pointing to some poor defending in the build-up to Stephen Warnock’s winning goal as the decisive point in the game.

“If someone told me we would have that much possession, play in their final third for the majority of the game, create that many opportunities and still come away not having won the game, I’d be scratching my head,” he said.

“Once again an individual mistake costs us dearly. That has got to stop because it’s hurting us dearly.

“But when you look back through the game we had enough of the ball and created enough chances in that last hour – I just need more desire to keep the ball out of the back of the net.”

The good news is that we are going to avoid a transfer ban. By not signing anybody....

Oh. Only last week we were going to control games without possession. Has anyone ever spouted as much shite as this clueless prick?

Happen a bit more desire to get it in theirs would've been nice.

perhaps he's read this forum and realises he will be lynched if he says all we need is a bit of luck
