Title: Christian Roberts Post by: SwindonTownFC on Friday, June 2, 2006, 17:10:49 PLEASE PLEASE FUCKING PLEASE just knuckle down and concentrate on your football PLEASE!!!! he has the talent no one doubts that for a minute!! whenever i read him talking in the adver talking about changing his number from 14 to 18 and that will bring him luck i get all excited then he lets everyone down, comes out the clinic saying he has changed and just wants to play football and again he lets everyone down, i just keep thinking of the homes games last season against Sheff Wed & Hull he was unstoppable
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: DV on Friday, June 2, 2006, 20:37:27 agreed, with that little midget fuckface gone, its now or never for Roberts.....you owe us
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Sade on Saturday, June 3, 2006, 09:14:58 I think roberts is a fantastic player when he's fit, he's got loads of skill and controls the ball bootifully. I would love to see a 'new him' next season, match fit and showing everyone that he's back. I'd be over the moon for him.
:D Lets hope he does just that. Title: Christian Roberts Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Saturday, June 3, 2006, 12:22:25 Have to agree here. An on-form Roberts is a joy to watch. Such a shame it hasn't happened this season. Mind, I'd wager he's as desperate to get fit and get going again as we are to see him back and on form.
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: my-velocity on Saturday, June 3, 2006, 13:53:58 Next season he'll have to fight for his place in the 1st team as i don't really see Wise relying on him to be our top goal scorer. He can be good as a winger, so maybe next season he'll be in that position.
When we signed him from Bristol City they obviously knew he had a drink problem and wasn't that good of a footballer and we were the mugs who brought him, but he can play well only if he just focuses on his football.

I want a decent striker with peacock who can score goals at this level ffs. Don't gamble on Roberts, we don't want to be in the conference.
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: SwindonTownFC on Saturday, June 3, 2006, 15:21:32 could be 8wins a 5goals for Roberts though
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Piemonte on Sunday, June 4, 2006, 11:13:17 its now or never for his career now.
If he dosnt produce for us I cant see anyone else giving him a shot, which gives me faith that he'll do it Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Simon Pieman on Sunday, June 4, 2006, 11:23:13 Quote from: "Piemonte" its now or never for his career now.

Title: Christian Roberts Post by: TheKingCY on Sunday, June 4, 2006, 18:50:10 Of course if he don't wanna play for the town, he can come on the piss with me and play for our sunday team. Should fit it nicely with the piss-heads already there!! Ain't that right Bushey Boy...!!! :beers: :guinness:
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Reg Smeeton on Sunday, June 4, 2006, 18:55:40 Think the chavmeister is bound for the obscurity of a Cardiff bar...where he might find the odd bit of casual building labouring.
He'll be happier there.....be able to blob out, get a few more tats and give the missus a bit of a slap after a night out on the lash with the boyos.

Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Duncan_Shearer on Monday, June 5, 2006, 06:26:25 I actually agree with Reg, Bristol city fans did warn us what he would be like. I think its really positive that he is getting alot of support from Swindon fans, however he will never be a proven goal scorer and i think we should get rid.
We need Peacock and a new signing up front next season. Title: Christian Roberts Post by: kevjoycreed on Monday, June 5, 2006, 08:27:06 Quote from: "stfcbeckett" but that might be then 5-10 losses. I want a decent striker with peacock who can score goals at this level ffs. Don't gamble on Roberts, we don't want to be in the conference. Why is the emphasis on getting a quality strike partner for Peacock? As yet Peacock has not proven himself as a goal scorer in a town shirt. If you ask me, he has as much to prove next season as Roberts. I hope they both come good as I think they could prove to be a deadly force if both fit and commited. Title: Christian Roberts Post by: fatbury on Monday, July 3, 2006, 18:29:50 20 goals from ROBERTS??? Dont make me bloody laugh !!!
20 pints maybe!! Just look back .. has he EVER scored 20 We wont even get 10 goals from Peacock and Roberts combined Title: Christian Roberts Post by: McLovin on Monday, July 3, 2006, 18:31:57 Quote from: "fatbury" 20 goals from ROBERTS???

Title: Christian Roberts Post by: my-velocity on Monday, July 3, 2006, 18:44:39 Roberts isn't a striker who'll score 20. He's a striker who'll get 5-10 goals tops.
Title: Christian Roberts Post by: reeves4england on Monday, July 3, 2006, 18:51:37 Quote from: "fatbury" 20 goals from ROBERTS??? Dont make me bloody laugh !!! I think 10 is the minimum we will get providing they both play regularly. I can see Peacock scoring around 8 and Roberts could easily chip in with 4 or 5 if playing on the wing, maybe more if he is a striker20 pints maybe!! Just look back .. has he EVER scored 20 We wont even get 10 goals from Peacock and Roberts combined Title: Christian Roberts Post by: DV on Monday, July 3, 2006, 19:00:55 Quote from: "fatbury" 20 goals from ROBERTS???

Quote Just look back .. has he EVER scored 20 he got 17 in the 2002/03 season at Bristol City Quote We wont even get 10 goals from Peacock and Roberts combined Last time Lee Peacock played at this level he hit 19 for Mansfield. Then the following season he hit 7 goals before Man City bought him in October. Then at Bristol City in the old division two he hit 15, 17, 15 & 16 Thats a fucking good record if you ask me Title: Christian Roberts Post by: red macca on Monday, July 3, 2006, 19:59:35 Quote from: "DV85" Quote from: "fatbury" 20 goals from ROBERTS???

Title: Christian Roberts Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, July 4, 2006, 09:56:28 heres my bullshit response
I dont think Peacock and Roberts will be fit most of the time .. hence my statement Fair comment that Peacocks record had been good up to last season .. but I remain unconvinced so far thats he a natural goalscorer .. i do honestly hope im proved wrong .. I do admire his work rate and commitment .. But as for Roberts .. thats nearly 3 years since he hit 17 .. he wont get 20 no way .. Hence the need for a proven striker .. even if Peacock gets 15 or 20 it wont be enough to help us up Im not being deliberately negative as Im delighted about Dennis Wise being manager .. Im just worried he doesnt realise how bad things really are at the club As for my mate Rhys chasin the Blackpool dream .. he really didnt have a choice ... and Blackpool are going places ... Title: Christian Roberts Post by: normy on Tuesday, July 4, 2006, 10:20:47 I am optimistic about Wises's ability to get the most out of players, but if they don't shape up he will be ruthless IMO.
He knows that Peacock when fit can link up play and score a few, and Roberts at his best is brilliant for this level of football. The "bet" is a challenge which I am looking forward to. If this all falls flat, I am sure Wise will have other options up his sleeve. We would all like a proven goalscorer signed, but remember the two midgets last season. There is a lot for Wise to learn, and he has done very well so far IMO.

Title: Christian Roberts Post by: Spud on Tuesday, July 4, 2006, 13:29:36 Quote from: "fatbury" As for my mate Rhys chasin the Blackpool dream .. he really didnt have a choice ... and Blackpool are going places ... Didnt have a choice?, his precious home Town Club that he always harped on about, he might have been offered a contract not as good as his last one but the option was still there especially seeing as his family were settled here. The only places Blackpool are going....is other League One grounds. |
