I'll be horrified if BdcR starts regularly. Seems a nice lad and honest and deserved his applause....but we need more than just good attitude and work ethic

 

In fact in terms of attitude, work rate and ability I'd rate Mavididi (light years ahead) Ricky and on his last 10 mins last night, McAteer all ahead of him on all counts 

Nice to be right sometimes 😏

In terms of ability, they are about the same. They've both 'gone' to such an extent, they are no longer of professional standard. But at least Bertrand had the decency to be permanently injured and not play..

Output about the same!!!

[fazzyfox]

8 passes today apparently. Man, if you want to just watch the game buy a ticket like the rest of us. Just so passive and ineffective. But he’ll be handed a shirt again next time because Ruud has absolutely no standards or respect for our badge.

What’s even the point of this bloke, are we even sure he’s the same footballer who played for Fulham? ****ing Dogshit.

That's the Van Nistelrooy effect.

He has even turned Vardy shite 

[Tielemans63]

Can he even football?

[fox_favourite]

What does he offer? He's been utterly terrible and that's being kind

[5waller5]

Tried to write a concise but witty sentence about BDCR, but got so bored I couldn’t be bothered. 

[Langston]

He can't kick a ball, its fascinating in a way..

[Paninistickers]

It would be fascinating to see him and Ward, in women's football..

 

This is the absurd thing, I actually think Ward (who I cannot speak badly enough of, national league level) would be another level. He'd be massive and his slow reaction times and failure to read the game at speed wouldn't be exposed. 

 

Whereas our Bob. He'd be against women reasonably quick and reasonably strong  ...but like, nothing out of the ordinary. A decent WPL player perhaps but international? I think the girls would be too good at that top  level.

They would both be absolute monsters in the woman’s game. Even a half arsed BDCR

But the fact I'm seriously ruminating on the question...

 

Ward I agree. He's a man, I'll give him that. But BdcR is so effete. So weak. Dandy. 😂

Tried shooing it out the window but I think it went behind one of the sofas in the players' communal area

I’ve not really followed the instructions and outs of preseason but I’ve not seen him pictured or mentioned at all.

[Grebfromgrebland]

He might be ok in the championship

Unfortunately he is still here, I cannot see him being any use to us would rather see a youngster given a chance.

This is part of the problem I have. We should have cleared the decks BEFORE Marti had the chance to see the likes of BDCR, Vestergaard, Faes, Soumare, Kristiansen. 
That way, he can't be 'hoodwinked' into thinking 'they're actually ok', when we all know they are dross.

Also, it would have given him at least some money, to bring in a new striker.

More mental decisions!

[Lambert09]

There was a loose link that Scott Parker might want to work with him again

What?? 

 

We can’t call players shit but expect people to be queuing up to buy them!

I don't expect a queue for any of them. But as soon as relegation was confirmed, we should have been working behind the scenes to get this lot shifted

[lfu]

Can we convince Bristol City to sign him back on a free?

Agree, and that would be ideal for some, especially the higher earners, just not sure where they could go without further screwing us for PSR.

 

 There is a whole discussion here about when it becomes worth just including them and taking a hit. Does it ever?
