Title: Ashikodi
Post by: leefer on Wednesday, July 23, 2008, 16:56:53
At Watford...is this the guy we had on loan?...he scored a couple in friendlies and according to Boothroyd may be the man to fill Darrius Hendersons boots whos just gone to Sheff utd for 2 million....Henderson,Bouzza and maybe Ashikodi could be 3 very good players we let slip through our fingers...oh well.

seen his 1st goal from last night on sky earlier, was on the right wing, few step overs cut inside on his left foot and drilled it in the top corner! against poor opposition though. Wont fill Hendersons bots, he isnt good enough

Exactly - Bouazza was never about a full-time contract... My lasting memory of Ashikodi was the Huddersfield game - came on, got booked, held the ball well, got substituted.

Bothroyd must be on the Ale if he thinks this useless fucker can fill Hendersons boots.

Dude, if you're bored there's a perfectly good thread about fridges to post in. The best bit is, it's entirely serious debate, I'm sure this isn't.

Sorry Sie,to be fair on myself i dont regard any debate on the forums to be serious,i thaught Bouazza was shite,and he got sold for 4 million,Town wouldnt cough up 60 grand for Henderson,hes just gone for 2 million,so whats the betting on Moses doing the buisness for Watford...it wouldnt surprise me.

wouldn't surprise me either, but he was proper cack when he was here.

Agreed...but then Bouazza was like a chicken with no head.

I think you may have missed the subtle irony in my post.

Bouazza played well for us and im not surprised he did well at a batter level.

Henderson looked a good signing, but we agreed everything and it appeared his agent got in the way.

Ashikodi was plain shit and looked like a young Trevor fucking Benjamin.

Post by: janaage on Thursday, July 24, 2008, 08:05:20
I honestly think that Ashikodi may end up surprising a few of us how well he'll do.   Not sure what I'm basing that on, but I do think he does have that certain something in his game, which will get him chances.

I agree Jan he showed some glimpses and very much seems a confidence player.

Ashikodi did score a fantastic goal on Tuesday for Watford in a friendly, took it from his own half round a couple of defenders before planting in a 20 yarder into the top left corner of the goal, a cracker, I am sure it will be on you tube but I cant be assed to look.

I'm sure we had an offer accepted but it was Henderson that rejected it to take his chance at Watford

I thought Henderson's agent had something to do with him not signing for us by demanding too much money, or something like that.

Yup. It was pretty much all signed and sealed then the agent at the last minute casually dropped in that he'd be wanting £25k for his services

Wish Moses all the best,he came across as a nice lad at the sponsors meal.Didn't do the business for us but doesn't mean he won't do it somewhere else.Wonder how Macnamee is coping without his BFF though?

Darius and Super Sam up front *sigh* we would be in the premier league now (probably)


Title: Re: Ashikodi
Post by: Spencer_White on Thursday, July 24, 2008, 17:22:47
Talksport had a phone in about 'players you should never have let go'. I texted in Henderson for us.

As he was a loan player I guess it wasnt strictly relevant. But we dropped the bollock big time not paying off that bloody agent. Parkin and Henderson would have been pretty formidable. But our defence was absolute crap that season, so I doubt we would have got promoted anyway.

In reply to POWER OF THE PEOPLE,Henderson was struggling at Gillingham at the time if i remember,not at Watford,we messed up whatever the reasons,i went to Bristol City he scored 2 and basicly battered a fairly good City team...wasnt having a go Sie Pie bye the way,it wouldnt suprise me if even Zaboub turns out to be a mistake,i like him and it just seems to me at times we let players slip through the net...like lots of other teams i may add.

Title: Re: Ashikodi
Post by: leefer on Thursday, July 24, 2008, 17:49:29
I know Red...but point taken just hope we use him as an attacking option home and away,for me too many of our attack minded players spend to much time in our own half back tracking and pretending to tackle...let him loose and he will murder them.

No, we'd have sold Darius like we sold Sam (best deal in the Football League remember?) and the money would have disappeared down the same black hole as all the rest

Worse still it might have given the old regime enough money to hang on for another few months, In which case, AF would have gone & we'd be wound up
