You will be telling me next Taylor is a world beater and if you consider a couple of substitute appearances amounting to twenty minutes is "plenty of chances" you really are hard to please. I suggest you look back less than twelve months ago what our manager said at the time about him and as far as I am aware DC has not added to his previous comments recently. I What can DC say about him, he's done nothing to warrant any comments I suggest you look at his goals per game ratio for last season mate..and one of those was a lucky rebound off his shin..! yes even Taylor (21 goals last season) is a world beater compared to him. The bloke that removes the voucher out of my season ticket every week could do a better job than Blissett If your not prepared to read back what our manager said at the time he signed for us, you obviously cannot see where I am coming from. Your comment about the turnstile attendant is totally out of order and by the way, you are not my "mate".

No one likes to pan their own players but there comes a time when you've got to be tough, there are other strikers out there who would relish Bissetts position. DC threw down the gauntlet pre season but the lad hasn't stepped up. Plenty like to pan their own players. Sadly.

Surely any new signing is met with optimism? That was last season and we all hoped at the time (see my comment about comparing him to Big Dev) that he would come up trumps...Unfortunately he hasn't and he hasn't done anything, apart from a few pre season goals against part timers, to suggest otherwise. Apologies for calling you mate.

DC threw down the gauntlet pre season but the lad hasn't stepped up. If you are working there may well be loads of people out there who can do your job, so what do you expect the bloke to do, resign? I doubt you would? As I said previously he is not on big money so is hardly stopping our manager from signing other strikers so as far as I am concerned its over to DC on this one. Its been quite obvious for a long time that Taylor, Harrison and Easter are not going to score at will in this league, our appalling home record proves that and a big striker is required, unfortunately I don't see that keeping Blissett at the club is in anyway stopping someone being brought in.

Nobody is necessarily saying it is stopping us but we do seem to have a pretty tight budget so wouldn't be the biggest surprise. His wages could help go towards a better option. Taylor, Harrison and Easter are all decent and I said from the start of the season that our goals would be spread out over the team. Blissett has all the attributes to be a lot better than he is, sadly he is never going to make it as a league footballer though. That has been obvious for a while.

Forget pre season, I long ago stopped taking any notice of what happens in them, but as far as I am concerned two late substitute appearances for a total of no more than twenty minutes is hardly a fair judgement on what he may or may not do.

Think you have forgot he played for us last season well. When DC said that, I'm pretty sure he would have hoped for more than we have got from Bliss to far. If we carry on giving him a chance, it will be detrimental to our chances of finishing in the playoffs (or higher).

'Tight budget", not according to DC or NH. As I said previously he is under his first fulltime contract, and in his position I would gladly leave if I was paid up in full. I would prefer the likes of Mildenhall to walk away from his nice little earner, but we all know that is not going to happen, if it did we could probably bring in three decent fourth tier strikers for the money we would save there.

Bliss was working for British Gas so probably earning a decent wage he'd also get appearance money from Kidderminster so could have been on £30/35K a year with overtime. To attract him to Bristol we'd have to offer him at least £10K a year more to move so he could easily be on £40/50K a year, or enough money to take a big slice out of DC's budget. Forgetting the Kidderminster away game against his old club he's had loads of chances with us & Tranmere but been fairly poor now for around 6 months, perhaps pro football, or life in Bristol, just doesn't suit him.

NH also said our contract with Sainsburys was watertight....Why should Mildenhall walk away? Would you? If someone is daft enough to let players sign long term contracts on high wages that's not the players problem

It's sad that so many football experts on here are able to write Blissett off on the basis of a few minutes of league football. I remember a similar situation with Michael Smith being written off after a couple of games. Those same people were nowhere to be seen when Smudger came good. Give Blissett the time (as DC has suggested) and opportunity to prove himself in the league or otherwise as the case may be. I for one haven't given up on him and he may yet surprise a few on here. Good luck to Nathan, he brings us a different option. Awkward yes, but not easy to defend against.

We already gave up any opportunity of beating Notts County by bringing him on.

We already gave up any opportunity of beating Notts County by bringing him on. So you'd have kept Matty Taylor on who did zilch in the second half except demonstrate how to jog around slowly and always keep at least 3 metres from the ball. Admittedly he was better in the first half and has put in some decent performances recently but on Tuesday he needed to go off and we needed something different to try and break down a resolute Notts defence.
