DJ Barry Hammond Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 It's not a bad signing by any shout, Sven knows the guy and seemed to get him scoring at the highest level despite the fact he couldn't at club level. Our squad lacks depth, people have been crying out for a striker to sign (ok a big one has been the main shout, but its still another potentially credible striker) and we're inside the window which makes any signing difficult. The guy should have something to prove, will have lived in the area/region before and will hopefully prove a number of people wrong. Put it this way - he can't be any worse than Jason Roberts or DJ Campbell can he?
dannythefox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Here we go, the I'm a better fan than you bullshilo you get from the happy clappers who will support anything the Club serves up otherwise they will deem themselves disloyal. You'll have to forgive me then, because we have a team of players in the bottom 3, we're closer to League One than the Premeirship and if we keep this lot that will remain the same for years. I'm not looking for Iniesta, Xavi or Alonso, but I do expect a professional player in the Championship to able to pass a ball 10 yards to a teammate 99/100 times, so you keep encouraging and fostering the mediocrity If we had players that could pass the ball 10yards 99/100 times to a team mate we would be TOP OF THE PREM you talk crap!

What about everyone playing from League 1 to Sunday Leagues, and the fans who support them? They should all just stop as they're not world class? I don't think i'm a "better fan" than you, just much more realistic. I don't see how we're supposed to sign top players who'd perform any better than what we have now, in our position.

Chairman of the Bored Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Vassell. Couldn't hit a barn door from three yards. Could be Sven's first blunder. Jason Roberts would be SO much better.
caz05 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Bored of hearing this guy complaining now. Glad im not the only one
acooling08 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 In no particular order, Weale, Berner, Hobbs, King and Waghorn. The rest can all fook off as far as I am concerned, I have no time for mediocrity or lazy workshy players. Once again you show yourself to be a Miserable Cvnt by turning a thread about a potential decent signing into a slagging-off pretty much our whole squad.
Ozwin Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Not jizzing my pants over this signing but I'll give him a chance. If he's still got a bit of pace then he'll be useful, at least he'll actually play up front under Sven's 442, whereas Sousa would have had him playing left wing or something.
ajthefox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 A short and (once) pacey striker is not what we need, imo. Disapoiinted with this signing especially after Davies and Naughton.
Ozwin Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 It's a weird one, he could be god awful but he could also be lethal and bang in 30 goals this season. Guess we'll have to wait and see. Age isn't on his side though.

Age isn't on his side though. Surely mid-30s is where age becomes a factor. Look at the greats of the current game like scholes, still great way past 30.
ajthefox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Yeah I mean I won't write him off and boo or anything, he could do well, but I find it very hard to believe that Vassell would make a massive difference as oppose to Davies and Naughton, who in their first match did. We shall wait and see.
J.Lisemore Posted 19 October 2010 Posted 19 October 2010 Not really, FYF is a decent poster. Not really the point is it? I was just pointing out that some people probably should hold back a little, instead of assuming its bullshit right from the off.
aussie-fox Posted 19 October 2010 Posted 19 October 2010 if he is only coming in on a short term deal then who cares?! we are now in a situation where we can take a gamble like like this. he may turn out to be a flop or a "find of the season" lets have some faith in Sven in the meantime. to everyone that thinks they could sign better players or know that he is rubbish. Get your coaching badges, work your way up the lower leagues, get appointed at city THEN prove us how right u are! before that happens leave the signings to sven and his team and support the club and ALL its players!

Mike the Metal Ed Posted 19 October 2010 Posted 19 October 2010 The real question is... will he finally sign my Aston Villa programme after he blanked me at Filbo back in 2002?
Ozwin Posted 19 October 2010 Posted 19 October 2010 I had no idea he was only 30, I thought he was like 33/34 minimum.
