Come on. There's sticking to a point of view and then there's just covering your eyes and willfully ignoring what's in front of you.
Gary Madine isn't very good. He wasn't very good before last season, and he hasn't been very good since. But you can't argue that he wasn't playing well before he moved to Cardiff. He was involved in 16 goals by the end of January (10 goals, 6 assists). It's currently mid-December and we've scored 15 total this year.
Sometimes players just have a purple patch, where everything they touch comes off. Michael Ricketts had his, that was Gary Madine's. He even scored a direct free-kick ffs.
Anyway, if the past two years have taught us anything, he'll be back here on loan soon. After we sell Ameobi and Ben Alnwick.

Apparently, Wigan are after loaning him. Groundhog Day?

All the best Spotty, and to all other TW folk. We may not always agree, but I'm glad we're here (and there's a club to argue to about). Here's to a better 2019.Lost Leopard Spot wrote: ↑Mon Dec 17, 2018 7:16 pmHappy Christmas, might not be around for a week or two.
