fair enough, I think that shows how much interest I had in yesterdays game!Talal said:He didn't start...2 -
I think we loaned a very unfit player. Not injured but nowhere near fit. I think it’s taken him a long time to get near selection. His apparently impressive performance for Scotland U-21’s probably saw him back fully fit. Odd that NJ didn’t give him a shot before yesterday but I suspect despite the derision I’ve had for saying he’s possibly worth a contract that NJ wanted to boost the players confidence and have a final assessment in a competitive match. We’ll find out if my hunch is right in due course.0

Dobbo, May and REG all said the same thing about Fiorini when asked the question about him on the train yesterday
He is a quality player, Dobbo said "we see him every day, we know exactly what he can do and he is quality" i said if he is that good why has he not been playing, Dobbo said with the unbeaten run the gaffer obviously didn't want to change the team to much
Honestly was surprised how highly the 3 rated him, but if they think he is that good would happily see him back next season, a full pre season under Jones and maybe we will get to see what he can actually do0 -
What do you expect them to say? Players are never going to say anything negative about team mates to randomers they meet on trains/in the street.paulie8290 said:Dobbo, May and REG all said the same thing about Fiorini when asked the question about him on the train yesterday

Having been signed by Man City and impressed with Blackpool in the Championship I make you right to a point in that he must have something about him. Blackpool fans were relieved he did not play against them.
We signed him completely unfit, I suspect as we never expected the form collapse and thought we could ease him into action with a view to signing him, Apples knew him well and essentially said as much.
I found it odd that in the last 3-4 games when we were already safe and he seemed to be fit that the likes of him and Taylor didn't get more minutes to assess them.
I am not against signing Fiorini, but it would be really daft to have had him for so many months and not have given him more of a run out if we do sign him as it makes the signing that much more risky/unknown.5 -
yes that’s my fault for writing that. I think my ageing brain got fried by the very sight of his name on the teamsheet at all.Talal said:He didn't start...Was he meant to be playing as a 10, though? I couldn’t really work that out, especially as Dobbo seemed to get in more scoring positions than he did second half.0 -
I won't say who because A- it's probably not fair to be put in public knowledge B- i wouldn't want to cause rifts amongst players, but what i will say is some of the things they said about other players/things made me believe they were being 100% honest with us, and all 3 thought Fiorini is a great player and lets be honest we saw him for a few minutes under Appleton in a team that was struggling, yesterday he came on and looked decentCroydon said:

No good him looking decent in training but never being fit enough to show it in matches.0

I’ve long learned that what players say to fans in public is largely bollocks7

Fair enough, you don’t need to share anything you don’t want to, but on A - I would imagine that they’ll be comfortable with anything they tell to a random guy on the train being repeated online if they weren’t, they wouldn’t tell a random guy on a train.paulie8290 said:
