Ginko Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Sometimes a rumour or a bit of knowledge shared on social media can be legitimate. The Twitter posts break up the regular speculation and create a bit of excitement. It's up to the individual whether they believe it or not. Most are just hopeful. I really don't get the high-and-mightiness of the people who come here to berate others for posting about a Twitter rumour – talk about being unproductive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 It looks like a lot of goals last season from Watkins were tap ins, meaning that he needs a good supply from the wingers. Last season we didn't really have that consistently. Samatta looked good on the highlight reel for exactly the same reason. You could argue that maybe the Championship is at a higher standard than Belgian football though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I end up blocking about 10 people on Twitter a day. Trying to clean up my timeline with all the itk shite but it’s impossible. These people are just so unbelievably sad. Get a **** life for god’s sake. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus people are saying the he has pace and attributes to be a proper CF. Samatta is limited, I think our tactics needs an involvement from the striker, mor than being a target man. That’s why we’ve seen Samatta not being able to produce anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheltenham_villa Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I like the idea of a winger who can also play as through the middle. I see big wes coming back but we also need options to complement him or replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted August 14, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 14, 2020 This thread seemed exciting until the Milot Rashica thread arrived on the scene, now it just seems dowdy and no one is interested in posting in here much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 My name is Olly Watson so I was kinda excited for this signing to happen just so I could get a kit for next season with a player name and feel 10% less of an idiot wearing it. I wouldn't get my own name on a shirt but getting someone else's name that happens to be mine as well is okay and I think this is as good as I can hope for without impregnating half of Birmingham and naming all my children Olly Watson jnr. Which would be a bit much just for a football shirt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
