I hope he goes for his sake, if I was him I would never want to see our fans again. We should be ashamed of the way this guy has been treated


I agree. Same thing happened to Jordan Stewert and is currently happening to Josh low and to a lesser degree Momo.

It happens at every club, I happen to think all these players are pants but I am less vocal than others.

De Vries didnt fit the bill for the fans or the club.

His performances against Charlton and Spurs maybe were down to both teams fielding their second choice centre-halfs. He was pretty good against Charlton I must admit.

I will always remeber Hansen saying "I don't think he had the ball under control at any point in that match - until then"

Classic:icon_bigg
 
IMO he should be given another chance. If he leaves then I hope he does well and proves us wrong.
 
if you want to look at goal ratios, it would be interesting to compare Claridge, Cottee and Heskey with MDV. none of them were exactly prolific for us, yet the first three were loved by the fans.

MDV had a respectable scoring rate while playing in an awfull team. the others played with what is widely regarded as one of the best city teams ever.

Fans see shite players and moan a bit about it shocker!

If we were Liverpool fans they'd say we had great footballing knowledge or some such crap.
 
i think we should put up with shit players like lee marshal, junior lewis MDV etc just incase people think we are horrible people.

it's not asthough they are being paid big bucks either.

If people dont want him in the team because he is ****ing shite then the only time fans get to show this is at the games, what do you expect?

I can remember reading/hearing something saying that Junior Lewis was on 15K a week with us, and I think it was Durham who posted earlier saying that De Vries is on 7K a week. If De Vries is on 7K, that would surely make him one of our highest earners. Lewis was one of our highest earners in our last promotion season.
 
i was being sarcastic by the way

The rumour I heard was that instead of a signing on fee Junior requested, and got, a car. No not a Skoda but a nice shiny Ferrari. Can anyone confirm if this is just a "Cruyff"?

I seem to recall that when he joined us he couldn't drive, but that's not to say your story is wrong. What I do remember is that we paid a fair wedge ( £150,000? ) for a player from Gillingam reserves. It would be funny if it were not so tragic.

IM fairly certain the PT had tried to make him a Goalkeeper during his time there.
 
Thank Goodness!!! Just kick him out of this club as soon as humanly possible.
 
Pity he couldn't make an outfield player of him here.:mad: ;)

Didn't some people said he was brillaint after his first match (Chelsea?)??

And didn't we 'fight off several other clubs to sign him'?


Typical PT buy though.

I seem to remember his first game was Leeds at home, and he was pretty good - never again, unfortunately.
 
You may be right, but twice I saw him against Premiership opposition (Charlton & Spurs) and he was really excellent.

Spot on :icon_lol:
but he was poor against Blackburn.
