The Sam Baldock 'Saga'

[Dick Knights Mumm]

I hope this new bloke means the Baldock deal is dead in the water and Cotterell can carry on with his imagined bidding war.

Yeah baldock thread cancelled....cotterill can fack right off

I hope CMS signs extension, I'd rather him over Baldock all day long.

I'd still like to sign Baldock. If not now then maybe in January when his market value is less. CMS contract up at the end of this year. If Baldock is still scoring goals lets bid again. He's much younger than CMS. Could be great value.

I think the opposite. I think he is integral to Sami's plans - his tireless running is pulling defences all over the shop and creating space for the others to exploit. New contract in the offing I reckon.

i agree....watching the Leeds game i felt as though CMS had his mojo back...and continued with it against Bolton

CMS showed his worth to the team and his ability to play the system Sami wants agaainst Bolton, long may it continue.

I totally agree but why is it only you, me and a minority that see the way he opens space. Very intelligent forward play, it's not all about scoring goals.

Don't worry - I'm sure Sammi can

I feel that Colunga MAY turn out to be the bargain of the summer and will spell the end for McSmudger. His first touch has always been League 1.

Is Colunga a main striker ? I was under the impression he was a second striker type sitting just behind ( where Crofts played on Saturday)

I agree. I think he'll play where Crofts played on Saturday. Didn't suit Crofts really. Think he'll play further back if he's in the team.

I still think we'll get a new centre forward to compete with CMS and O'Grady but won't mean the end of CMS. As discussed elsewhere, he suits Hyypia's style.

I know people use CMS and "headless chicken" in the same breath, but I thought on more than one occasion on Saturday that his tireless running was making Bolton players hurry things and make mistakes - booting it in to touch rather than controlling and passing. I always have been a fan, and he was great on Saturday.

 

[Martlet]

Baldock has contributed nothing to the Bristol City side so far this season, no goals, no assists and in the matches i have watched him he has been completely unimpressive. One good season in league one does not warrant paying a million, particularly when he looked so poor in the championship the last time around. hopefully we concentrate on getting an actual star striker.

Like Buckley last year then?

Only one sensible post in that thread - NSC would reveal it imminently a fraction of a second after the official announcement.

There is a post by Kikaikai (sp?) in the other striker thread who mentions Baldock? I mention him as I remember he had some inside knowledge on a previous deal.

Think you are confusing him with Gazza the Mugger
