I was thinking it was a lot better todayIt's actually been pretty shonky his entire time for us.

Agree. But I still don’t understand it.I wouldn’t disagree with that, but in my experience you get that at most clubs. You can hear it on the telly or radio and from other teams’ games I’ve attended as a neutral I’ve heard much the same sort of thing from the home fans. Yes, football fans can be fickle, but I genuinely don’t think ours are any worse than anyone else’s in this respect.
I wasn't suggesting that ours are worse or the only ones mate. I was merely pointing out that in the 60-odd years that I've been going to the CG we've always had that element who insist on behaving like that, moronic and pointless though it is.I wouldn’t disagree with that, but in my experience you get that at most clubs.

Out of contract in the summerIs he out of contract or does he have a year?
Fair enough. And I quite agree it is moronic and pointless - like booing during a game it can’t possibly have a good effect.I wasn't suggesting that ours are worse or the only ones mate.

Start negotiations. He's been a fantastic buy... Especially considering how quickly he was written off at the start.Out of contract in the summer
Not for me but testament to Wood that you're willing to even entertain the thought.If both were fit, Id pick Wood over Taiwo.
Sorry Alfie - I can't resist it.If we stay up you'd hope that the club brings in a young understudy with potential, whilst those two lead and rotate as appropriate.
I think when completely 100% fit Taiwo was arguably our most important player but we were so reliant on him it was agonising when he inevitably got injured. Wood's revival under Nuno has been such a relief as well as a pleasant surprise.I think he’s a better natural finisher than Taiwo. But Taiwo when 100% match fit gives the team a better outlet. We have two very good strikers for a team that’s in our position.
Sorry Alfie - I can't resist it.
I take it it you have changed your opinion of the that 'shit, waste of money CF', Wood then?
Be great if we could have them on the pitch/in the squad at the same time. Hoping for some good Taiwo news prior to wolves...I think he’s a better natural finisher than Taiwo. But Taiwo when 100% match fit gives the team a better outlet. We have two very good strikers for a team that’s in our position.
That list but ordered by goal conversion rate:
"Shit buy for Cooper" was my complaint. Also "shit value for money" as at his age he's not resell-able, and you know...we may need to think of finances or could end up getting points deductions and stuff.
No, not changed my mind on the first, yes changed my mind on the value for money, because even if we don't resell him his goals have already paid back what we've paid for him.
Definitely a much better buy than I thought he'd ever be.
Changed your mind yet on Cooper having an underperforming squad which should be mid-table? Or swapping Sangare for BJ being a "no-brainer" as he's "top class"?
Do you have anything other to add that isn't the same axe -grinding, negative bullshit? I'm sure Doughty didn't get anywhere near this shit for taking us to the 3rd division for multiple seasons.I am sure we already have a £30m crock of shite from the Mendes stable lined up ready to replace him.
