TopCat Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I`m not speculating whether this is a good player or not, never having heard of him, but it sounds pathetic that Craig is going round English clubs with the begging bowl asking for reserve players on loan. I imagine that fans will be asked to pay full price to watch whilst players are getting fit and having competitive matches for their English owners. Already have a bad feeling about Craig I`m afraid. What a load of shite that post is. I take it you were complaining about Conor Newton and Isma scoring at Hampden when we won the cup? We'll never do anything with loan players eh?

FTOF Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 It's about time Div arranged for some free advertising to help certain posters reach out to the Samaritans. To be fair, even the most seasoned Samaritan's worker would be tempted to tell them to GTF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 See a few responses from Oldham fans on Twitter about Plummer, seems they absolutely hate him for some reason ! https://t.co/uVlzNjHZpI .........and they liked Gary Harkins - ecky thump!

Kendo Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Why don't we just sign Vincent Kompany? I heard he could be a better option with a bit more experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously dont agree and are happy with temporary players, thats fine. What abuse? I called the post a lot of shite. You must live in some kind of parallel universe if you genuinely think we shouldn't take advantage of the loan market. We scored 3 goals in the league cup final, 2 of them scored by loanees and 1 set up by a loanee. It amazes me that after that people still think that loaning players is a bad idea. What more evidence do you need? There's plenty of players who have EPL contracts and who are more than good enough for this level but who can't break in at their clubs. We should maximise this market to the fullest of our ability, if we don't, our rivals will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had more loan signings like the cup winning season and less loan signings like last season everyone would be happy, last years loans were honking and no doubt skew peoples views of the loan system somewhat.

I give you Bahookie. That being said it is the only way we will sign players from the likes of Newcastle and Man City. It's not a begging bowl it's good business sense and can quite often work out good for both parties. Edited June 30, 2014 by Kendo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxbar_bud Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Just remind me of two things - how many times have Dundee been in administration? - when was the last time Dundee won a major domestic honour?

barney Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Chat of Ellis Plummer being the City player on Twitter.. I love this line from his wiki page. After being loaned out on 28 November 2013, he was placed in the starting line-up for Oldham's game on 1 December, playing 1 minute before being substituted to prevent him from risking a second yellow card for persistent fouling.

TopCat Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 He actually played 64 minutes, wiki is wrong (shock horror). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTOF Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Booked in the 54th minute, then conceded two fouls just after that, and was subsequently replaced in the 63rd minute. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25074351 Anyway, Manchester City seem to rate him. Ability wise,I'd rather go on the views of the likes of his manager Patrick Vieira, than a couple of f**kwits from Oldham, who've seen him play a total of three and a bit games.
