Big Hat Logan Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 The constant shirt pulling and putting hands all over players is what annoys me the most about Bates. Completely unnecessary and a liability. Link to comment
Big Hat Logan Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Just now, Roberto said: I'm willing to give the 2nd chance to the cunt. There is no harm in having him as a back up. I doubt he will play much, but as a back up we have done a lot worse over the years. There are far more important pegs required to fill in the squad. Bates replacement can wait until January transfer window IMO. I suppose it depends on what sort of wage he is on and if we can sign a better back up if we somehow manage to sell him for a fee. I’m not against him playing as back up but the thought of someone getting a serious injury and Bates playing the whole season genuinely depresses me. Link to comment

Haha I know what is it with him He always looks in pain and not well at all Looks like he has the weight of the world on his shoulders Maybe that explains the 20 degree angle Link to comment

Hope we see less of that if he stays, you can almost call a foul a couple of seconds before it’s given as you see him grabbing the player Link to comment

Dinna forget he played for the huns where you can almost get away with assault when playing for them, so it’s ingrained in him that he won’t get pulled up for it. 1 Link to comment

Very hit or miss, can sometimes do something brilliant (at Dens he dribbled past about two guys whilst bringing the ball out) then do something utterly stupid (same game he gifted them possesion). Personally dont think he'll work here as his confidence must be shot after last season (granted he was part of the problem) Link to comment
Eugenefani Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Look at Bates body language during a game, wtf is that about. He’s got the best job in the world. Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Eric Black was the same. Constantly looked like he was fucked. Turns out his Back Surgeon would agree. But there the similarities end. Link to comment

Byrne Baby Byrne Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Anything over a pound is stunning business. some clear out. Few times over the years I’ve seen us talking of needing a clear out like Turnbull had but I’d have to say this is the first time it’s actually happened 5 Link to comment
Ke1t Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 400k for someone as bad as Bates is terrific business. I wish him good luck, and to fuck off quickly. Quicker. No, quicker than that. 1 Link to comment

muttonhumper Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Is it my imagination, or was Bates really good and pretty solid for a couple of months last season? Around Nov/Dec? Or did I dream this? Link to comment
