Personally reading between the lines CAfC offered George a lot less than he could have got elsewhere, but,but, he still would have stayed because it wasn't about money, he wanted at least a 3 year contract and was only offered 2 by an asshole at the club. Replacing Dobson will cost a lot more, Coventry is half the player, doesn't lookup or forward always looking to pass as soon as he has the ball, not a play maker. Not a promotion winning player. He was offered 2 year with option of a 3rd .. but Dobson wanted straight 3 year deal .. replacing Dobson won’t cost anything we already have a better player in Coventry .. |

Manager reckons that he should speak truth about a player and he's being a bore for some. Right you are, But look at who's complaining. |

Is it just me or is anyone else getting fed up with Nathan Jones going on and on about George Dobson after every game now? If the manager wants to keep him then he can do something about it but he doesn’t need to keep telling anyone that will listen about it. It is starting to feel like little more than fan appeasement and I don’t think I that is a good look, personally. He keeps going on and on about George Dobson after every game, BECAUSE he keeps being asked over and over about George Dobson after every game... Absolutely right. It was a stupid question. |

In your humble opinion, of course. No one knows how it came about but if George had not signed on the dotted line, he would not be leaving for Hungary. I'm not aware anyone held a gun to his head. |

A successful team is based on balance and complementing players - if you’re happy to let go of one of the league’s best tacklers (if not the best) then you will need to replace that to balance the team Just because there are several gaps in the squad that we need to fill doesn’t mean we should fill one by creating another I just know the same people dismissively claiming that Dobson leaving is no big deal will be the same ones wondering why our midfield can’t put a tackle in and get the back off the opposition You’re not wrong… my point was about spending the budget better and tacklers like George Dobson don’t get you promoted, typically.. I like him enormously but we need to figure out why he spends so much time slide tackling! Probably notice it more as hardly anyone else gets a tackle in.🤣 |

Probably notice it more as hardly anyone else gets a tackle in.🤣 BigAndy, pleased I am not the only one questioning why George has had to do so much last gasp slide tackling defending……It’s because we don’t look after ball well enough throughout the team….. Our back three have resorted to hoofing it up front with 60 yard diagonals where we don’t tend to win the second balls and then teams come back at us…. Anderson is industrious but gives the ball away far too often and Coventry yesterday gave it away for fun……… If we had three quality technical midfielders next season who have the ability to take a pass to feet, turn and play through the lines we will not lose the ball as often and then have to spend so much time defending and chasing after the ball which we did yesterday in the first half against a bang average Shrewsbury |
