    Yep and there needs to be a fixed percentage sell on that can’t be sold off when a higher league club takes one of the youngsters as it would at least give the possibility of a future reward

    maydrakin reacted to Carnero in Kelle Roos yeah?, he’s gone to Aberdeen init.   
    Sad to see Roos go, under-rated and harshly treated by a section of Derby fans so probably best for his sake to have a fresh start elsewhere.
    Freebie keepers including Alex Smithies & Jamal Blackman are available if we can start offering contracts.
    There are always plenty of keepers available for loan too, seeing as most teams already have a clear cut no.1.

    maydrakin got a reaction from David Graham Brown in The Administration Thread   
    I really don’t know what drives these people to offer to buy something they logistically cannot complete.
    Football seems to attract lots of chancers who have ambitions beyond their means.
    I mean, how have the administrators allowed it to get this far without obtaining funds.  This is the second time he’s failed to provide the capital - Preston also found that to their detriment.
    Kirchner is a serial time waster. (He’d do well at Millwall!!?)

    maydrakin reacted to Addingham Ram in 5 subs allowed next season   
    Still never understood why the 4th official doesn't oversee substitutions, without any interruption to the game. Board goes up (showing number of player coming off AND number of player coming on), player comes off at the half way line - as quickly or slowly as he likes, then 4th official allows new player on. Why does the game have to be stopped? What else does the 4th official actually do? Would stop so much unnecessary time wasting.

    maydrakin got a reaction from Macintosh in Festy Ebosele - Signed for Udinese   
    One thing for sure, is that left back for Hull will be glad to see the back of him. As Festy had him on toast.
    Having pace and power is enough to create havoc in the second division, and on his day he was unplayable.
    He’s the sort of player that gets people off their seats, and I’ll miss that excitement when he was one on one with space behind…

    I’d be looking at players who have made the fourth division's team of the year.
    All but four look out of contract, so there would be some definite bargain squad members/potential gems in there.
    Wollacott - Swindon (C)
    Guthrie - Northampton 
    Clarke - Tranmere
    Turnbull - Salford (C)
    Wilson - Forest Green Rovers (C)
    Dieng - Exeter (C)
    Azaz - Newport (loan from Aston Villa)

    maydrakin got a reaction from BatRam in Most potential   
    It really doesn’t matter what I think, as I was convinced that Marvin Robinson had a much better chance than Malcolm Christie… and that Giles Barnes would be a future international.
    After listening to a podcast with Robinson, I think it’s such a fine line between success and failure.
    There are too many variables to determine the fate of a player.  If you don’t take the chances when presented, you can be consigned to the dustbin very quickly!

    maydrakin reacted to Carnero in NFL Draft 2022   
    God I hope we don't take a WR at 8, apparently there are loads of good WR prospects this year so we can use the day 2 picks to pick up one or two. With 2 picks in Rd 2 and 2 picks in Rd 3 at least we have some darts to throw!
    Hopefully we'll go EDGE, maybe Jermaine Johnson, or if Sauce Gardner falls then take him and at least lock up the secondary alongside AJ Terrell!
    QB can wait till next year, just run with Mariota for now and get one next year with a likely top 5 draft pick.

    Falcons keep getting linked with QB and WR at #8.
    I’m hoping for a monster edge or DL to drop to us, but knowing us, we’ll take a safety or corner!
    Failing that, Matt Araiza, a guy who can punt over 80 yards - could be a key player for us next season! ?

    maydrakin reacted to duncanjwitham in Past mediocre signings / This season   
    I absolutely refuse to accept that Dawkins was a bad signing.  He was very, very good at doing the actual job he was in the team for (keeping the ball, moving it quickly, linking play) while maybe not great at doing the job people in the stands wanted him doing (bombing up the wing and crossing the ball).  He absolutely suited the way we played and he cost us relatively little. He's a textbook good signing.  (And I'm putting aside the fact he wasn't signed while Mel was sole owner...)
    Far worse for me are the likes of Malone, Butterfield, Johnson, Vydra, Anya, Blackman, Waghorn, Shackell.  All signed for stupid fees, on stupid wages, and all incapable of doing the job they were signed for.  We got lucky with a few of them (like Vydra), and ended up with them benefitting from completely changing the way we played, but they were all still bad signings IMO.

    It’s a rough looking season upcoming, but I think Watson’s contract would’ve hamstrung the Falcons for a good while.
    This season looks really bad with the schedule we have, so it’s a tank job this year and then we have a high pick for next year’s QB and over £100m in cap space!
