[Archived] Summer 2016. Who Stays? Who Goes? You Decide!

[Salgado Is Still A Hero]

Did you read the whole thing? I'm actually more encouraged than discouraged!

Sounds like the sort of signing we would have made in the Hughes era and polished into a gem.

I did find this bit encouraging.

“He has been his own worst enemy in many ways but the word on the street is that he is starting to get the message therefore Gordon has trusted that he could bring him here."

I like the fact the street is talking about him. "Giv us a Henry of blow, couple a g's of charlie. Oh and I hear the penny's dropped with that lad Tony Watt. Blood."

Word on the street? Did someone drop their Scrabble set?

[AJW]

my view is that this is something Lambert has already spoken to him about , but wants Watt to hear it from someone else , someone who won't really feel any backlash shoe Watt go off in a huff but someone , who ultimately is in a position of power and can shape the lads future

[G Somerset Rover]

Fletcher has pulled out of Thursday's game leaving Watt and McCormack as the only striking options. Hopefully he won't come back too knackered!

[Mike E]

Great to read, definitely shows the right attitude. As you say though: Actions and words.

[Tom]

He has enough about him to make me hope we sign him up; undoubted talent and seems to understand the game as well but has to get his fitness up

[danger19_80]

I thought his intelligence in bringing the ball down and passing it on to Duffy instead of wildly shooting was as impressive as the finish itself last Saturday. Sign him up.

A good example of flair rather than blood and thunder mindlessness.

Shane Duffy named as Motm in Irelans game tonight against Switzerland.

True, it looks better and better the more times I watch.( 86 so far and counting) But as I actually watched it unfold in real time from low down behind the goal, I have to confess that my very first thought was "cop -out" for passing it back to Duffy!

Dread to think what the standard is for a International game.

I suspect there will be interest in Duffy this summer and he's contracted only until 2017.

Well if you watch the game you would have know how good he played.

Also just to add Switzerland are 12th and R.Ireland are 29th in the fifa rankings

Mm, that's not altogether good news for us if we want to hold on to him. However if we want to sell him ?

[arbitro]

Lee Williamson played an hour for Jamaica yesterday against Costa Rica. Interesting as I thought he was still injured and pretty much unavailable for us. It now appears that he has been frozen out by Lambert an in light of this highly unlikely he will be offered an new deal.

Shane Duffy received very good reviews for his performance yesterday and was singled out for praise by Martin O'Neill. Hopefully he has played his way into the ROI squad for the Euros.

I would be extremely disappointed if Williamson was given another new contract in the summer. We should have moved him on last summer, rather than put another obstacle in the way of the likes of Lenihan.

I'm not really surprised by that. You could definitely leave him out on the grounds of a lack of ability however he's always put in the effort. Maybe Lambert's made his mind up on some of the others as well. I'd have thought Delfonesco and Taylor have had their fortunes told to them.

[m1st]

Wasn't Lambert the Villa manager who finally ended Delfouneso's career there? Perhaps he's just not Lambert's kind of player.

Taylor's, erm, "indiscretion" in the West Ham game may well have made up Lambert's mind about his future at Ewood.

Play fair If anything Chaddy is responding to a trolling comment here; not a single thing wrong with that post unless you are trying to find it Abbs.

Play the ball not the man!

[ABBEY]

So how come I was moaned at for asking Chaddy about a "rubbish pen" he hadn't seen but Teflon C is in the right for asking jal how he can comment on something he hasn't seen .

Double standards pal .
