Welcome Kion Etete

[Nardendee]

Will he be forward enough in his pre-season to start tomorrow? same with the more recent signings.

The club aren?t saying whether he will play or not, probably more to confuse the opposition given his size.
It won?t be due to not being here in time.
The club announced it at 12.30pm and the registration deadline was 12 noon so that won?t be a factor or they wouldn?t have announced it.

As regards fitness I would not expect this to be an issue or they wouldn?t have rushed it through.
It wouldn?t surprise me if he is on the bench.

Far from encouraging from them. Let's wait and see, different club, maybe a different player?

Really? Are you sure about that? We had him at Bolton from January last season and he was absolutely awful, spent most of his time injured (feined?) and when he did get on he just did absolutely nothing, other than give a stupid penalty away with his first act, so I wouldn’t get too excited. I genuinely hope he does better for you, can’t do worse I’m afraid because I really can’t remember a worse loanee and believe me we’ve had a few. I just hope you’ve got a clause allowing you to send him back in January.

Don?t understand why fans go on other forums to tell us he?s crap.
We will make our own minds up.
Bolton the serial league 1 bottlers telling us what we don?t need.
I suppose playing for the best side in league 1 was too much for him hey.

Be interested to know how many games he started for Bolton or if his 5 appearances consisted of 6 minute cameos. We?ve had our fair share of players feigning injury due to a dislike of manager so could this have been the case ???

He actually started only once but even then was quickly replaced. His first start as sub against Reading was in the last five minutes when it was 0-0 but we were pushing for a winner. They got a corner and his first act was a stupid and unnecessary handball to concede a penalty. After that we didn?t see much of him but then he started the game I mentioned earlier but honestly he was dreadful and actually looked totally uninterested and was subbed at half time. After that he came on as a sub a couple of times doing nothing but then decided he was injured, no actual proof of that and didn?t turn out at all afterwards.

He?s young yet and must have something for Cardiff to give him a new contract before he came to Bolton but honestly we never saw it from him and frankly he was a complete waste of time. Maybe things didn?t go for him at the Reebok and he did get off to a bad start with that penalty but he was just awful and most of us wanted him gone long before the end of his loan. Now I?ve said all that he?ll probably turn out to be a brilliant signing for you and I genuinely hope he is because surely there?s more than he showed for us. Good luck against Vale tomorrow, I hope you start with a win and if Kion starts he scores it just to prove me wrong. 😁

Well I lived in Rotherham, (Barnsley now) my family support Rotherham and I take my granddaughter to Rotherham games so I can?t speak for other people who may frequent other sites. As far as Etete is concern he was crap at Bolton but as I?ve said elsewhere I hope it was just a blip and he?s good for you.

Which game did he start for Bolton and was quickly replaced? I can only see 5 appearances, all as substitute and a total of 78 minutes played, including 6 minutes against us.

Also if you take your granddaughter to the Rotherham games, how many minutes have you actually seen him play?

I'm not saying you're wrong by the way, Cardiff fans agree with you. But as others have said, he'll get his chance at Rotherham and hopefully Matt and his staff can get the best out of him.

But your original post didn?t read like what you've just said.
It came across as condescending but thank you for clarification and explaining what you meant. I appreciate it.
👍👍

Welcome onboard Kion, trust your stay with us is a good one for all parties.

The interesting thing for me on this, is the recruitment of this player ? From what we have heard from Bolton and Cardiff fans is this player is awful ! So what have we seen that they haven’t because it sounds like he has never had a a decent game so far, so is it a desperation signing which would totally blow our recruitment policy ?
