I remember it as clear as day as I responded to the posts and we debated it.If you want to make out that you didn't say it that's fair enough, but I know you did say it like you say 99% of our signings and players are crap.Im not going back looking for posts from 3 years ago but I know and you know you said Dack was a crap signing and poor player

How do we know there is no urgency? 3 years ago.. Back 4 v Southend 2017 Nyambe, Lenihan, Mulgrew (c), Williams,    All 4 players still at the club and 3 nailed on to start ag

This line from the Telegraph article shows how shambolic our recruitment has become    That leaves Rovers still in the market for two new central defenders, but they face starting the season

To be fair, if you’re claiming he’s said said that and he’s saying he hasn’t- we are going to need some proof.....

I have to say that this personal attack is unwarranted and unacceptable.  Can you show me the 99% that you are on about again?

Or are you just going to throw baseless insults over.

I've been banned for less.

?

I can't find the 2017 Transfer thread.But those are some of your opinions on Dack even after he had more than proved himself here.

Calling for a ban? Childish.

There is absolutely nothing personal in my posts apart from calling you out on your ridiculous football opinions.

This is a season where the average spend is 2m so far per club, so with the pandemic I think tbis is skewed a bit.  2m won't get him so whats the rush for club or player.?

I have no doubt that the player will play in this league or higher in the next season or two, I personally hope we do a deal with Donny and he sits while Trav and Joe go do the damage with the front lads.

I think that'd leave us a bit light in the defending stakes in central midfield.

Nick Powell moved for 5.25m from Crewe to Man U in 2012.

Assombalonga also moved for around 5m in 2014 to Forest who were in the Championship.

I don't think transfer prices have risen that much for league one players. I just think Dack was extra-ordinarily cheap at the price we paid.

I think its noticeable that he's never been out on loan.  My view is that nobody in league 1 or 2 would find a place for him in a rigid 442.  I'm not sure what his position is and that wouldn't attract lower league managers.  He should follow Mols to spain for some experience. 

I leave all the Buckley doubters this.

Ha, thats when he was lazy and didnt work hard enough....that was adebate about Dack v Rothwell anyway....nothing to do with what you are claiming.

Can you post where i said he was a shit signing in 2017

Posted in April 2019.

Since that game he had half a season before being injured in December (?)

What changed in those 4 / 5 months that stopped him being "fat Bradley" and not as good as Ashley Fletcher? He was scoring goals and impacting games way before the first half of last season.

You've called Buckley crap a few times too, told us he'd be better served going out on loan to some low level club "in a rigid 4-4-2" (bit out dated for a player like Buckley...). What do you not see in him that others do? His weight of pass and first touch is excellent - his game management will come, with time, and so will his physicality and use of it. I don't see how Buckley will benefit from following Mols to some 4th tier side in Spain when he is getting minutes here...

I'm sure you also told us Mols was a better player than him. If Whiteman and Mols are better than Buckley then why is one getting bids from Hull and Barnsley, the other in the 4th tier of Spanish football, and the poor one raved about by almost everybody else?

Youre as bad as Joe for ignoring your own eyes

His own eyes would have told him Buckley created chances at the weekend.

Lovely ball on to Lenihans head for the opening goal, lovely ball in to Wharton only for him to hit the post.

Don't think Buckley hit one stray ball at the weekend.

Agreed he needs to start imposing himself in the games and needs to work on his upper body strength, but technically Buckley has it to to be a success.Not many if any in our squad who are as good a passer as him

Looks like the messageboard only seems to go back to 2018 as far as I can see.

Maybe it's been archived to free up space on a server or something.

Either way, right now, no one can prove anyone right or wrong. 

Out of interest Sparks what's your opinion on Dack now?

Some pretty disparaging comments there from last year. Obviously,  we don't know how he will bounce back from serious injury. But if he comes back to fitness exactly same as before, where do u place him in the current hierarchy? 

Best player? Definate name on teamsheet?  Squad player?
