No i think Bodin is more like Tomlin, in terms of he's a striker that could play wide if needed but is predominantly a forward.Fonda wrote:I said in pre-season that if Halpin has half the 'potential' that has been suggested, he ought to be ready to contest for a starting berth in our side by now. If he can't oust a continually under-performing Danny Stevens, he's maybe not a good as some suggest? As for Macklin, i've never been his biggest fan, but his performance against Exeter in pre-season was fantastic, and i'm stunned he hasn't featured more. Stevens and Mcphee are evidently the chosen ones and neither are the answer for me. As for Bodin, if he's also been brought in to contest the wide positions, are we seriously going to proceed with 2 strikers?
, muzzy buy a sat nav if you dont know where London is :slap:Right, in that case I can't shed weight because of the comfort food I eat because I'd quite like to leave the West Midlands. And I'm part Irish.yellow wrote:So he couldn’t shed weight because of the comfort food that he consumed whilst pining for the East Midlands. And he is Irish.
Yes it all makes sense now...
Its not quality Kebab shops we've got loads of its the quality curry houses!! Which reminds me where is that take away menu???!!!usagullmichigan wrote:Think you will find the homesick thing is to do with we just don't have enough quality kebab shops in Torquay compared the the midlands.
I dont like to say this but i agree with you. I liked the guy and respected him for being a member of the club we all love, but seriously he didnt do that much. He does have potential but this is a big word as many players fail to meet it.yellowsmiffy wrote:I'm actually really pleased that Billy is off. I made my feelings clear on here a few weeks ago that I don't rate him, despite this supposed 'potential' he has. He is a really really limited footballer, who is fairly slow, doesn't run the channels, is very unfit, is poor in the air, can't score 1-on-1s, and is way way too weak for a lad of his size. The only reason I liked him at all, was because he has the ability to strike a football very cleanly. We have lacked strikers who can strike the ball from range as well as Billy does for a long time, and I always hoped the other areas of his game would improve to compliment this.
I wish Billy all the best and i'm sure he does miss his mates which is totally understandable. I can't see him doing much in his career above league 2 level so i'm not sad to see him leave. HIs performance at Old Trafford was so so poor and the fact he is still as unfit and weak as the day he arrived means he isn't a player I would personally like at the club. Needs to get his head right and start focusing on getting his career on track.

Thats got to be the first post that accuses Billy of being a "work rate" player. Everyone else seems to hold the opposite viewroyalgull wrote:the 'non footballers' are being replaced one by one. The ones that rely mainly on 'work rate' are being replaced
