Reasonable signing but they say you should never go back.
Interested to know why norwich let him go if he was so successful?

The thing I love about this signing is that you can guarantee 100% commitment from Crofts. He knows the way we play and what the club is all about including where we've come from and where we are aiming to get to.

You couldn't say the same were it some ageing star from the Prem that some were speculating about. Essien being one.

The machine returns :)

A proper box to box midfielder in my book, and compliments the rest of our midfield nicely

I am sure Liam will be delighted he has someone else in there now to share the workload

I am very pleased with this signing.

Very little time will be required for him to settle, which is an added bonus, Gus knows exactly what he is getting.

I think thats everyone.

:tosser:

Same to you. I was simply questioning why you were acting so precious and being such a pussy for not having the balls to name the player, whats the worst that could have happened eh?. Well done for today i'm sure your ego is inflated to its full extent but personally i'm not particularly impressed that you posted we were going to sign someone without saying who it was because I suspect you didn't know until later but wanted to make it seem like you did.

I'm pleased. Not extraordinary as of course i've met him before, but a thorough believer that he would have wholly improved his allround game with the experience he's now had. Him and Bridders is a mean and fluent middle twosome, letting our utter flairites rip apart sorry defences when they choose.

He's a poor player by our standards. You can throw names around at a random person on an internet messageboard all you like, it doesn't make you right. Let's see what happens in six months.

All the sheep claim to love Crofts but I never actually see any reasons why. Is he quick, strong, skilful, a great tackler or an inventive passer? No, not really. Does he create goals? No. As far as I can see he's a totally plain midfielder with no key attributes other than the fact he scores 5-7 goals a season, as opposed to a Bridcutt type player who will score 0 or 1 but be far superior in every other department. Plus, he looks like a pikey and has the IQ of an average rodent. This is hardly what I want to see at BHAFC. We could and should be doing so much better, bearing in mind where we are as a club.


This post is gonna come back to haunt you just like the Poyet has no contacts one did. Do you really have so little faith in Gus after what he has already delivered? You should hang your head at such a vitriolic post imo.

Do I take it that this is still not the special one that Gus has hinted at

Does it really matter? In the grand scheme of things did this thread cause any amount of stress in your life?

Yep that's the proof I was looking for
