Mostyn6 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 We have fringe players out on loan, I can only pick 5 separate polls, wanted to add Shackell, Lowe and Bent in too.

Mostyn6 Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 For transparency, I'd keep Martin, Butterfield and Bryson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaLocks Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Your view, so fair enough, but you'd keep Butterfield? I've got him down as an absolute fraud of a footballer - it's not pack mentality but I have never seen him do anything that warrants consideration that there is something inside that we somehow haven't found. For me, the only one I was teetering on was Bryson but, in the end, I put him down with the others - maybe a bit mean but we are so far away from that player that tore the Red Dogs a new one that I can't find it in me to believe it's ever coming back. I know that it is highly unlikely we will do a root and branch rebuild but I'm struggling to think of a name in the squad to add to Carson that I am hoping is still here in two years time.

He has technique, and in spite of the nonsense about passing backwards, his passing stats and accuracy were far better than any team mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I selected to let Martin go, only because I think that is the best thing for us and him given the way Rowett sets up. If we had a different coach that answer might well be different also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Butterfield and think he gets a lot of unfair criticism from fans. However his comments when leaving on loan were stupid, you should never call your club, unless you never want to play for it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaaLocks Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Not for me, sorry. I'm the same with Bennett, I don't get the desire to want to give him one more go. He's simply not good enough, wasn't good enough at Bradford or Chesterfield and the hope seems to be that just because he's a local lad something will spark in him at some point. He's had enough chances, and I've lost patience with mediocre football - can we try to bring in players who both improve the team and give us a chance of selling them for more than we paid for them. With the exception of Vydra (depending on which valuation you believe) I don't see us being able to do that. OK, you can argue Ince, Christie, Hughes, Hendrick - all fair shouts - but the cupboard is bare now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiddingsRam Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I think there all good players at this level to be fair, as individuals I voted yes for them all , but the if it was to fit into GR mould then maybe Bryson , Bennett and Blackman ( controversial i know ) but in this league in the new 343 system I think it could suit him down to the ground.

Day Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Starts the 3rd Rowett out poll in a month, now this, come on @Moist One sort it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Keep: Martin, Bryson, Bennett. Let go: Butterfield, Blackman. Prediction: this poll will garner similar results for Martin & Bryson and similar results for Butterfield & Blackman. Bennett is more likely to split opinion.

AdamRam Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Sell them all, replace them with quick young hungry players, not these ex prem league players in it for their last pay cheque. First on the list - Kenny Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BathRam72 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Assuming Rowett is still in charge then as follows. Martin out - Has been good in the right formation, not in a Rowett style of play (Would he want to stay on the back of 2 loan years and play for the manager who sent him out last? Knowing he doesn't fit) Blackman - Tough one. Didn't do it under previous set up, but does he fit the current model? Out for me Butterfield- Out Bryson - we need some bite in midfield, maybe give him one season to see if he fits. Bennett - Young enough to learn and be moulded. Maybe give him a season as well to see if he can break through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 With the current formation, I'd like to try Blackman. Could actually be a more attacking threat than Weimann. Butters could do a job as DM, especially if Thorne leaves. I'm afraid that's not an option anymore though. Bennett is a tough one. I'd give him friendlies time to prove himself. Bryson and Martin, I'd like to keep them but there's no use for them with Rowett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
