TroyDyer Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Connor Sammon was given multiple opportunities, started most games, and showed himself to be inadequate. Nick Blackman has not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Blackman has not. You're right. He has to play a bit more before he can convince some people he's truly inadequate.

Inglorius Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Just to compare the two players is an absolute farce am surprised the Mods haven't locked this thread as being written by a WUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryson shot would have been blocked by the defender if he hit it any further to the keepers right hand. He aimed to go for that side but had a defender pretty much directly in front of him. his first half shot was superbly saved. and he has achieved loads for us both in the past and in this game.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 One of the worst signings the club has ever made, up there with Lars Bohinen, Mikkel Beck, Grenet etc etc. Whatever the 'recruitment team' we're doing when we signed Blackman and Camara, it must have been seriously strong acid.

I wasn't saying we should all have a go at Bryson. I was pointing out that Blackman wasn't the only one to miss easy chances today. Anyone can do it. If we can accept a good in form player to do it then we can accept a player who's barely played, is low on confidence and playing with fear to do it. He missed a chance. There's no need to pounce on him. And I never wanted us to sign him. I moaned about it when we were linked. But the guy hasn't done that much wrong. He's been poor in a time that plenty of others were just as poor. He missed chances where others have missed chances. No big deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the PE Teacher's signings weren't they? Think it's called giving someone enough rope to hang themselves with. Shame we didn't realise that he was already kicking away the chair when they were signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFCArmy Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 5 hours ago, Anon said: It isn't Blackman's fault that Reading stitched us up. Thankfully the person responsible for the signing has been deservedly sacked. We paid several million on the basis that a 26 year old striker had the first and only goalscoring purple patch of his career at the start of this season. It was, is, and will remain a mind boggling purchase. Reading certainly got the better of that deal.. 1.5m? for a player with 6 months left on his contract... I don't think we can be heavily critical of Blackman though, he's not been given any game time in weeks. And where have they stuck Camara this time, on the bench V Charlton and not seen since, I don't think he even came on in that game so what did he do wrong whilst on the bench?, did he squirt Ipro juice in his pants again? and MM took offence to it...

ramit Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 i understand he needs to be given some allowances but for goodness sake, he fails in every department. As lackluster a high price signing as i've ever seen in a Derby shirt, except for Claude of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I disagree. Blackman has something about him. He will come good and score a few for us imo. Some need more time than others, give him a chance, why the vitriol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zag zig Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Watched him miss, felt embarrassed. Read some posts on this thread, felt embarrassed. **** happens, if he's good enough he will prove his worth, this team now creates plenty of chances again. There were games around the time when when Blackman was signed when there was barely a chance created, the answer then was ridicule Martin and look for another option. Now Martin is scoring and creating because we are getting him involved. Look at Bent, first touch goal. Up to Blackman to get in the right positions and make it happen. If he's good enough he'll score goals in this team, playing how we are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inglorius Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 If Blackman is that bad as some of the folks here make out then why are they not directing their vitriol at the person who thought he was worth paying millions of pounds for a player with a matter of months left on their contract.

RamLad1884 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Chris Martins first half season at Derby he looked ****. You can't judge a player by their first half season. Give blackman til christmas and if he's not done anything of note by then it's a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SELL HIM ASAP Bet you said the same when Martin was on loan here or Butterfield before he regularly got to play. Can't call a player bad when he hasn't been given a chance.
