Caerphilly Ram Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 37 minutes ago, S8TY said: Let’s hope the fact we still haven’t publicised the retained list is not indicative of our summer recruitment as we seem behind everyone. Teams are snapping up players already crossing my fingers we are going to get things done early and get some exciting players in COYR As of a couple of days ago, out of the 48 championship and league one clubs only something like 24 had released their retained lists so we’re not behind everyone, and what’s out there in the public domain isn’t necessarily evidence of what the club is doing recruitment wise as we saw with signings in Jan and last summer, a lot of them were kept well under wraps from media and social media accounts. abertawe_ram, Ramarena, Crewton and 5 others 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that he was full of poo... BT has been the only ITK-er who I pay any attention to. This is why I despise post season, it's not so much the endless bulls*** that gets thrown around on socials, by divs trying to get clicks & likes, it's the amount of gullible a******** who believe it, then start kicking off when it doesn't happen... jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith apparently had a bad attitude when he was dropped out the team. As for Forsyth it was 50/50 in terms of loyalty but a risk G STAR RAM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Forsyth it was 50/50 in terms of loyalty but a risk I think Smith is a pretty average footballer so I think we need to look for better. Bad attitude covers a multitude though. As long as your turning up for training, putting in the same output and not giving your teammates a hard time then it's OK to be pissed of with your manager and be a bit down temperament wise as it shows your bothered. The other option is too dance round the changing room like JLingz not giving a crap your getting a shed load of cash for doing sod all.

Having been involved in all 17 league one matchday squads up to that point including playing 90 mins in 10 of those games? The same Korey Smith who seems to be a well liked and respected member of the squad and has from the outside seemingly always conducted himself as a top pro and played out of position for the cause? 🤔 maydrakin, Dordogne-Ram, RamontheMoor and 28 others 13 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think the midfielder tightened up when he came back into the team and him and Ebu worked great together. With Bird and Houllane we were wide open all the time. For me thats my 2 centre midfielders for next season . Comrade 86, Dordogne-Ram, DenmarkRam and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purely seeking clarification on some inconsistencies of course, the doubt has already been cast by Simmo him or herself 🤣 We’re offering Burrows a contract despite him being under contract at Posh…. Smith had a bad attitude after being dropped, I wouldn’t interpret a 62nd minute knee injury in a game in November that kept him out until February as “being dropped”, and before then he’d played an active part in the side as well as coming back into the team after his injury… BUT maybe I’m mistaken in my interpretation 🤷🏻♂️ Edited May 16 by Caerphilly Ram Carnero, Tamworthram, DenmarkRam and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
