He did play pretty well in the few games he played, when he first came to us, but was always seem to be remembered for that midfield appearance against Maccessfield.  We do look a lot better at the back, just a shame as the defence now improves, we lose Ranger our best attacker.

I also think we have decent player in Reis, Which am the moment a lot of people disagree, but just got a feeling he may also be like a new player to us.

I like Troy and think he's a better bet than Hall partnering Ward. However I don't think he'll be here next season and as someone said he'll probably end up in a Brentford shirt!

New rule that missing a penalty means you're a shit player. Sigh.......

Changing your mind based on available evidence is fickle now? Ok.
The point was more that people were far too quick to rush to judgement on the basis of very little before his return to playing, not that they shouldn't have changed their minds once he did

Playing devil's advocate slightly, I only recall a few people, many from twitter, going repeatedly over-the-top about him. (Although I could be wrong, judging by the huge amount of manpons blocking the TEF toilet of late.) Smiley

I didn't see anything on Twitter as I deliberately avoid STFC stuff on Twitter for very much this reason. I was talking about the reaction on here, mainly from people claiming to be able to judge his ability/commitment/professionalism from what he'd written on Twitter.

He's going to be a big player for us this season. Nobody can accuse me of being fickle either because I said the same thing long before he returned from injury, bitches.

How many more games has Troy got before we have to stump up £20K to Exeter...presumably the failure in the JPT will make this more unlikely?

This season we have paid money for Byrne, Barker, Luongo and Smith but we can't afford 20K?

Righty ho.

Since when has logic applied to STFC ?

Given how many games are left of the season and he will be a free agent in the Summer, is it worth paying £20k for what will probably be meaningless games. If we're in the chase then possibly yes but with Hall to come back in probably not.

This had crossed my mind. Depending on how the table looks at the time and whether or not we intend to keep him on, it might be that a further 20k spent is 20k wasted in which case I'd rather we held onto it.

That scenario, however, would not necessarily mean we can't afford another 20k as some are keen to have us believe.
