Amazing to think what useless players we've paid good money for in the past. Teale single-handedly was responsible for each of Man Utd's three early goals in the League Cup semifinal and playing Fagan and Currie together effectively meant lining up with nine men on the field. Then there was Sammon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, not even Leon Best is BotB, that might have been when we gave a contract to Michael Boulding as a backup to the reserve team's backup centre forward under Nigel C. We're certainly reaching the bottom of the barrell in terms of excuses to slag Gary Rowett and everyone else involved with the club off though. It's getting just a little bit pathetic now.

GermanRam Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Finally. Everybody who says 'no no no' without any reason is just ridicoulos. Adams would be a great addition, followed his development since he went from Ilkeston to Sheff Utd and not to us. Get him. GR will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our list seems to be very long and once made a bid very public. I find it all a bit worrying, clearly we have valuations on players that appears well below that of the players clubs, this seems to be the case here as well as others. although different I don't think he is an improvement , I would rather spend all of the cash on one good player than this.

Wolfie Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Thank god for that. If only because I can't look at his name without thinking Ched Evans, for some strange reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab a dab doo Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 To get him you will end up having to offer a Lawrence type fee. That is if Brum will sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elwood P Dowd Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Adams may have scored a hat trick but it was against Crawley Town, even Super Johnny Russell could have scored 3 against them.....but then again perhaps not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamsPolls Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Not sure how I feel about this one. When I saw that we had bid for him, I was happy and thought he could add something to this squad. But when you think about it, He wouldn't fit into a 4-3-3 system, he would be fighting with Vydra/Butterfield/Nugent for the number 10 spot in a 4-2-3-1 system. Can he step up? I'm not so sure. I'd still like us to go for him though, he's got a bright future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's certainly not in the same class as Ince and I would look elsewhere . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my concern - was disappointed we didn't take a punt on him when he was banging them in for Ilkeston, but now it's hard to see where he's likely to fit - we've already got too many strikers being played out of position so we can fit them into the side. Think we should be concentrating on buying players that address the lack of creativity rather than going for another striker.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rample Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Looking at how Rowett used him last season, it was almost exclusively as a no. 10 He started 10 games (only completed 2), made 9 sub appearances, with 3 goals (2 after coming off the bench.) Was a regular immediately after signing but was often dropped for Donaldson or an extra midfielder after that. Was used a lot more by Zola and got 3 goals and 3 assists from December onward.
