razza699 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Sorry if this is a common known fact , I know we all knew it was a short term deal but I didnt realise it was only a month ( i was expecting Christmas) So has he done enough to win a contract?

bluehobbit Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 if he scores a couple then i think we would offer him a contract. he has a bit of pace and strength. I always think hes a bit of a nearly man. But he gives us another option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchie82 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 More of a threat than Lewi and O'Grady, keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 More of a threat than Lewi and O'Grady, keep him. Offers something to the team, deal till Xmas for me & then re-evaluate then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozz_oafc Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Surely it will weaken the team unless we get someone else in? Keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creepy Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 lets wait and see till after tonights game and swindon, but i must say id rather have him than LA and COG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ste1987 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I don't think he has done enough to win a contract as such, purely because he hasn't really had the opportunity properly yet. However, I would sign him up until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macca Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I don't think he's done enough yet but there's only so much you can do with 20 mins a game, didn't do much at Carlisle. He has a couple of games still to impress, if he does keep him until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0ndl1ne Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Not sure about having him over Lewi but definitely over O'Grady. I'm personally of the opinion that if he has a bit of security he will perform better, I don't necessarily buy into the notion that a short term deal forces a player to perform better...sometimes the player can put himself under too much pressure rather than letting his natural Instincts take over. I'd give him to the end of the season budget permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Came on and held the ball up well against Leyton Orient. Byfield is a good striker, he's just not had the breaks here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigfinLatic Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Came on and held the ball up well against Leyton Orient. Byfield is a good striker, he's just not had the breaks here. Exactly. 100% Keep him, at this level to have a striker with his ability and experince on the bench is fantastic. As orient showed having him around is incredibly valuable. I'd sign him up for at least a season. I think he will only get better. He also compliments the other forwards we have very well. We will then have Pawel and O'Grady as target men, and Parker and Byfield as second strikers. And also Lewis. In case Hell ever freezes over.

rudemedic Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 When did we sign him? As judging by all the comments during pre-season Byfield being here didn't just help our strength in depth- but it also seem's to have improved his mate Ruben's form. I'd keep him until Christmas and reassess then and possibly offer him something more long term than the end of the season then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsLee Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) why wont it let me vote ? i was voting no anyway. like i have said before i dont rate him, and no that little spell where we havent lost with him in the side has now been broken. more of a excuse not to sign him Edited August 19, 2009 by LaticsLee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmr Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 More of a threat than Lewi and O'Grady, keep him. Add parker to that, not impressed with him and doesn't look like he can be arsed. Abbott must be fed up with doing all the hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch_KTF Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I'm still backing COG. He was getting some good reports pre-season but now, after an hour against Carlisle, he appears to be considered :censored:e again. He needs to get nastier.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Parker looks to be carrying too much weight, I'd like to see Byfield given 90 minutes with Pav. Big couple of weeks coming up for Byfield. If he doesn't bag, or at least have a major impact then I can't see him staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
