Alex Henshall being a prime example....now 19, so physically starting to be a man, yet was quickly binned by Rovers, on loan as he presumably wasn't good enough, and they're rubbish.
Could be heading the way of Matty Collins, who left us for Fulham for a similar fee as Henshall...5 years at Fulham, not doing much, the last 3 years in the League of Wales.....Haverfordwest, Neath, Aberystwyth and now Carmarthen Town...still only 27.
he gave imogen thomas one so he didnt do too bad |

The henshall at rovers situation wasn't down to ability. Rovers were crying out for a winger and impressed and scored on his debut and was then frozen out. Fans couldn't make it out and assumed he fell out with ward.

You seem to be forgetting that he has plenty of previous for this - without a trial hanging over him.
It's how he is. He will not change.
exactly. He was the same at Newcastle to the extent they first told him he had to behave and turn up for training on time for six weeks before he played, then was shown the door. |

On the pitch he's amazing, that's all I'm bothered about. Personally I think he's better than Austin and Cox, he doesn't get as many goals but he is the complete forward.

Haven't had a drop yet. He's fast, strong, tall, good finisher, good heading, good at bringing others into play, can hold the ball up, etc etc.

Parkin, Cox and Austin were all far better at finishing than Ranger. He is far too reluctant to shoot at times..

 Nile isn't fit to lace Cox, Parkin or Austins boots. He was a better than average player but not even in the same league. |

Fuck me I had a bottle of that a few weeks ago for old times sake. It's so sugary and tastes like that lemon juice you put on pancakes. |

Hardly an alco-pop - an American malty lager at 8%
But I get your point

I wonder if Cooper asked for an old fashioned no.9, and Power signed someone who goes out a lot and everyone thinks is a selfish arsehole?
