When you spend that money you need to be spending on players who are going to start week in week out, we aint man city who got money to waste.

And the money we are spending should be with NOW in mind and staying up not next season when we are relegated.


This comment makes me think your a WUM or complete idiot.

1) Prices have inflated and English players cost more so comparing price just doesn’t make sense.
2) Reid will be a handful in the championship
3) Everyone was jizzin their pants when we signed him now saying Warnock has fukt up :lol: Classic

Can’t believe youv compared reid to Cornelius clown.


Handful in the championship? We are in the premier league fella not the championship. I aint saying warnock has fucked up, what im saying is regardless who the player is if you dont play him then its a waste of f*cking time and waste of f*cking money exactly the same as cornelius, thats the comparison, but hopefully it wont come to that and i dont think it will


Comparing him to Cornelius has lost you any credibility on here, clueless.


If you read my posts tidy you will see i aint comparing reid directly to cornelius. The comparison to cornelius was the fact of wasting so much money on a player who wasnt even starting week in week out. I suggest reading the posts tidy before branding people clueless, and f**k me if you are branding people clueless then how come that top level manager role passed you by aswell fella? Lol...

We realły have got some very negative people here !

This talented and exciting young player has every potential to be a real star but already the professional losers and whiners are on his case.

At the moment it isn't quite clear where he fits in to the best advantage , but it's only three games into the season. We saw a small glimpse of his talent with the back heel against Huddersfield which didn't quite come off, and at his former club running rings round and scoring against some of the glamour teams of the premiership .

If we can't make the most of a take the like that, which we can, it wouldn't say much about us.

As far as the individuals here who want to rubbish his efforts and belittle him, well they really don't deserve a team of tryers because they're more interested in finding fault even when there is none. I wonder whether they'd feel better if their pathetic loser mentality were to be vindicated by seeing this talented young player fail.

I'm going to be very impolite here and say that they're generally the same people who clearly have no f##cking idea what's happening on the field in terms of shape and tactics - which is okay because they can enjoy it when they see goals being scored and of course they are entitled to express their opinions ,no matter how ill informed and negative.
On the other hand, someone needs to put the case for fair play and positivity ,and I hope they won't get too upset about that .

Spot on mate people like that Rhiw may as well support someone else, getting on Warnock and Reid’s back, anyone can see reid has bags of potential, and imo will come good at some point once is place in the team is found.

Hes a talented player i like yes, its early days i know but he aint going to show all the things youve said and the talent on the bench is he, i hope warnock can find a system to have reid playing in because its a lot of money wasted if he dosent, and the money wasting was the comparison to cornelius not the ability of the player. But its early days yet so lets just see how things play out and if reid can fulfill his promise and talent

But it ain’t tho isit, because the money given now for TV etc is a lot more than the last time we were in the prem. Reid’s wages are no doubt a lot lower than Cornelius, it’s nothing like the Cornelius deal I can’t see how you can’t see it, beauty.

With our budget of say 30 million youve got to be a right clueless beauty if you think a 10 million pound player is good business sitting on the bench most of the time. He needs to be playing thats my point and hes good enough to do so! I dont care if hes on £500 a week in wages a 10 million player is a complete waste on the bench thats all im saying, the comparison to cornelius was about wasting money nothing else! Sinking in yet or?

Wasting money ? Reid has played every game and has contributed as much as everyone else which is little, do you watch Cardiff’s games because reid has been involved in every game ? What has Murphy done who cost more than reid ? Not much.

Started v bournemouth but on the bench for our last 2 games, where im coming from is if he continues to he a bit part player where hes on the bench a lot of the season (if that happens) then its a waste of money, but your taking my posts all the wrong way, cant be arsed to go on anymore its like trying to have a debate with a brick wall mun lol we will leave it at that you aint understanding what im trying to say whatsoever so f**k it its frying me now! And difference between reid and murphy is that reids been on the bench our last 2 games and murphy has started and yes i watched both of these games and am a season ticket holder so yeh i do watch the games funnily enough

think youd have a much stronger case had you waited a few games more..its way too early to be saying this stuff..this time last season we were all waiting to see how good our new right back would be and also expected Tomlin to play a major part...the right back ends up scoring the goals we thought Tomlin would score and Tomlin hardly played

I don't see where he fits in as I don't see us changing formation much, if at all this season. Although we may see him on the wing sat due to Injuries.

must admit im underwhelmed so far and didnt understand the transfer in the first place...but it really is way to early to judge him or infact Warnocks decision..maybe it will change,its been very safety first so far but i think its already changed..Etheridge has rolled the ball out to defenders to play out from the back more in 3 games than he did in an entire season last year {thats instruction more than choice } not that its doing much good because against 11 in the 2 away games the passing doesnt get us out of our half.

Yeh your right mate what your saying and what im saying with the wasting money and stuff is all pure speculation because we are only a few games in at the moment, it is too early and need to see how things play out with bobby reid but im just going off early indications with some of the stuff im saying, hes got the ability he just needs to play so lets hope he does
