Cal Sold to Aberdeen

[Big Bob]

Did anyone else watch it? Always thought Cal was better with than without the ball, but looked way off it against admittedly one of the better teams Aberdeen will play. Will need to step it up from today if he wants to play. I’d hate to see this turn out to be a bad move (career wise, sure the money is good).

Was always going to be a bad move. Cal obviously thinks he's too good.

I don't think Cal will want to remember that debut.
Few touches of note, it almost looked like they didn't want to pass to him.
All said he has only been there a week but it may be a step too far.

As stupid comments go, this is up there!

Oi don't jump the gun, there is plenty of competition.

To be fair it's a massive step up. A tough place to make your debut, against the best team at the biggest stadium. I guess he'll have more luck against the other teams.

How did Richardson play? Fotmob had him with the lowest match rating on both sides. Managed to catch a bit of the Sunderland v Coventry game yesterday where Patto appears to be very comfortable as a Championship No1.

I missed the first half but apparently he was having a bit of a shocker, poor touches. I don’t think Cal was poor but Aberdeen were and they could hardly string a couple of passes together as they were totally under the cosh.

Probably a baptism of fire for both of them but especially Richardson, he's a great prospect but a hell of leap for a young lad.

Didn’t watch it all. But, the parts I did watch, he just seems to switch off . Doesn’t seem to be aware of danger, doesn’t read the play and doesn’t stop crosses. Obviously the latter could be used to describe many Notts players over the past 6 years plus.

From the bits I watched, there did seem a reluctance to give him the ball. There were 2 occasions when Cal was clearly the better option to pass the ball to.

Your last comment is spot on though, he’s been there a week. Could you imagine a new player coming into Notts and supporters judging them after just one game. It just wouldn’t happen🤔
