At the moment we have threads about Lyle Taylor, Otis Khan, and Alex Rodman who are not our players. The first two signed for other clubs last week. Is it just me or does the fact these threads get to multiple pages make us seem very needy? We have two other threads Wishlist by pirate and League 1 Incoming transfers by GGMI that should cover this stuff, although the one by GGMI is about factual stuff not possible stuff. I understand the Alex Rodman one more than the others as he is still possibly on DCs radar. But the other two esp after they have signed for someone else last week need to be dropped imo. Getting to 8/9 pages is silly makes us seem very jealous of other clubs, which I’m not. I know the way it works and we’ve got to let other threads overtake them. But perhaps we could just have a general thread “Rumours” or whatever instead. It just seems to me that by doing this when players have signed for other clubs is a bit embarrassing imo and a bit meh! Blimey, once the thread about Tom L went to page 2 and the Kyle Bennett thread got a lot of criticism it seems threads about our own players are less important. By the way, I understand reasons why and new players and rumours are the lifeblood of any Forum but just think a general rumours thread might be better. UTG!

We actually have a well used 'wishlist' for desirable players, not sure where we stand on the generic name drop threads. To be fair though the Lyle Taylor thread had some interesting comparison stats to Harrison, and the Rodman thread bought up a lot of thoughts about our own possition regarding wide players so I don't think these threads are entirely off topic....
Thoughts?

I prefer it to multiple threads about a stadium we aren't getting.

Agree we need a tidy up, who cares about players we ain’t successful with in signing, delete and move on, plenty of pirates new targets to discuss 😂

We had to share the satsuma as well...one segment each.

Don't tell me about boxing day, dad put us all in a shoe box and carried us to Trashton Gate and made us watch the football, before murdering us again putting us all back in shoe box and burying us in our back garden! Tell that to kids today, they won't believe you!

Thoughts? Don’t disagree gregsgas. The LT thread just seemed to go on once he’d signed for Charlton. You’re right threads do develop as did that one with interesting stuff. No they’re not off topic, they are just ....about another clubs players once they’ve signed. And I know I don’t have to read them. Interesting to see what others thought though. UTG!

Football fans are often very needy, and very entitled. Public at large are too, come to think of it.
