Doubt we'll see this guy on the pitch for months by the sounds of it.


David, I have to agree and most of Slades signings are not doing well. Slade is doing well with the players that were already at our club.
Our bes performances and wins this season have come with Slade only playing 1 of his 11 or 12 signings he's made s fa.


In slades defence he's not had the riches to bring in the quality as you pointed out we already had, as for the new kid sometimes you got to gamble and it's a small gamble that could pay off :thumbup:

what slade is saying he is not injured (was) but they have to go through a protocol before playing him? or do people suggest we play him when not match fit or ready to play 1st team football?????? :o

Doyle wasn't even getting into our match day squad and was unhappy about not playing. Offloading Doyle (and others) has given Slade the finance to bring Saadi in.

The only proof of incompetence here is the fact you fail to realise we have Jones, Mason, Revell, and Ameobi currently fit and able to play up front. That's more than enough cover to keep us going until Saadi gets fit.

Or would you have preferred for us not to sign Saadi, keep an unhappy Doyle who's well down the pecking order and then risk missing out on Saadi in January?

So buying players to loan them out, saves money to buy other players, to eventually either play them or loan them out to?
If they become unhappy i mean? Why not just buy a player who can lift the team in the first place? :?

Unfortunately, Slade had to bring in a striker last January as Joe Mason, Adam Le Fondre and Kenwyne Jones were loaned out. Javi Guerra also wasn't allowed to be played, so we were short of options. Doyle did his bit for us last season to contribute to getting us up the table after Ole's disastrous start. But this is a new season with new expectations.

Joe Mason, who Ole wrongfully loaned out has jumped ahead of Doyle this season and Sammy Ameobi has also been brought in on loan to boost our attack. Slade also thinks Saadi will further strengthen our attack so Doyle has now been loaned out. It's quite simple and makes perfect sense to myself and many others.

Be honest, you're only criticising Slade for no reason yet again because he's the manager who has cleared up the mess your hero created at our club. Slade has turned our club around whilst drastically cutting our wage bill and reduced our debt. It still astounds me how fans can criticise Slade for the job he has done so far, but I suppose he's still not a big enough name for our unrealistic, overly demanding fans.

No im not criticising Slade. i just think you are talking rubbish as usual. Slade had to bring in Doyle be course "my hero" wrongfully had loaned out Mason, And Adam le Fondre was already loaned out, and so was Kenwayne Jones :lol: And Slade is cleaning up a mess replacing players with poor options, not reducing any size of the squad. But giving players away, replacing them with players he is not going to use anyway. You couldn't make it up :laughing6:
