I wish people could get over us not breaking the bank to keep Osbourne. He’s done well since he left but if budget money was assigned for either Reeves or Osbourne then Reeves every time. Osbourne was offered what we thought he was worth and he turned it down - let’s move on ffs.
Rawlinson
Doyle
Roberts
Wooton
Don't think we need both Reeves and Doyle but it can work, what's important is they have runners in front and I think Knight will provide more opportunities to clip it over, a lot of the side ways passing is because nothing is on short or long.
How the hell has Sam Osborne got onto this thread as well?!?! I've never known a player leave Notts doing so little can talked up so much. He was ok showed some promise and talent but no more.
I was 50:50 on him, couldn't get that emotional either way. I will start to regret him being let go (or actively seeking first team football somewhere else) when he's tearing it up in at least the same league as Notts or realistically the league above.
As he's a local lad I can only assume one or two are related or close family friends.
I wish the lad well with his career and it looks like a good move so far (NL North suspension aside) but I've never seen such a disproportionate response to a player leaving Notts.
These are exactly my thoughts. I would have liked him to stay as he showed promise. We offered him a contract (some say sh*t money but they don’t really know what he was offered - it may have been length of contract he didn’t like). He turned the offer down to look elsewhere - his prerogative - we move on, but some seem unable to. Like you say he wasn’t the new Messi.
