Okay I'll bite,Originally posted by RU66 View PostHis signings tell me one who you compare with Vaulks Rathbone? my type of players. Direct.
Not every player comes into a team and gets up to speed straight away. Vaulks (and Oddofin for that matter) were garbage their first season playing for us. Even woody went on loan to chezzie before he got in the first team for us, to completely judge new signings off 6/9 games is pretty pointless, and I think based on where people have played so far Yearwood clearly fills this role.
Also on Rathbone, my opinion is he was always made to look good by having better more technical players beside him, and while he might not be one of Matt's signings McWilliams has played that role pretty well so far this year.
What this team has lacked in the past couple years is a lack of quality technical players with maybe the exception of wilks and clucas, and it's clear with Hamshaws signings, bringing in Martha, Hall, Kaleta and Gore he's trying to address this problem

Wood went on loan cause we had better at time. Compared to now he wouldn't have. Was Warney that with Vaulks played Potter instead he got injured then he turned our season round. Rathbone he's gone on to show player he is. Can't see when the going gets tough especially in away games Martha Kaleta being up for it. Yearwood waste of a signing along with Benson.
Hamshaw will keep playing his signings keeping most of our younger players out of the the match day squad but I can't see that working.

Vaults was garbage every season he played for us. Honestly can't think of a more over rated player.Originally posted by SdnMiller View PostVaulks and Odoffin were garbage their first season playing for us.
He will be remembered for 3 things
1. Bit of charity work
2. Handstand goal celebration
3 Pushing Roy Keane
Amazing how gullible some fans are. If you can fist-pump, foul and kiss the badge you have every chance of being a hero even if you are a dreadful footballer

That's why I see things different from most on here. Vaulks was my favourite player for us since we've been at the NYS. 2nd Odoffin.

Bit harsh to say Odofin was garbage in his first season as he hardly ever played. Came on as sub at Wigan with a few mins left, gave away a free kick which they then scored from.Originally posted by SdnMiller View PostOkay I'll bite,

Warne hardly ever picked him after that.

Just goes to highlight your usual misjudgement. Both were decent players but neither of them were fit to lace Lee Frecklington's boots!Originally posted by RU66 View PostThat's why I see things different from most on here.

You probably didn't see him play at NYS.

Vaulks played in the game that basically saved Warnes job away at Blackpool when we won with two very late goals. Vaulks was very ill with flu, he demanded he played and gave everything in that game. Powell, rafferty perhaps James are the only players in our current squad that I believe would do what vaulks did that game.
