thegersandme 0 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I see BCFC drew today 0-0 at home. That makes 1 goal in 3 matches. Surely ECK will be in for BOYD? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythebest 11,453 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 James McFadden doesn't score nearly enough, nor is he as good a player as the Tartan Army bunch like to make out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Why would Birmingham want Boyd now? The will adopt a 4-5-1 formation for the majority of their games this season and O'Connor, Jerome, Benetiz and even McFadden are better in that role than Boyd is.

thegersandme 0 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Would you care to comment.. or is that the extent of your contribution? The point is... ECK has already been in for Boyd.. given that they cannot score goals, it is not entirely out of the question that he comes back before the window shuts. Add to that, Boyd will be a fringe player this year -- and will not play in the CL -- or v the scum, or any other top 6 team. But... of course, bring him on v Ross County etc. I believe if ECK comes back in for him, this time he goes. He knows his # is up at The Rangers. Or is he as thick as Charlie Adam?

McBoyd 355 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Would you care to comment.. or is that the extent of your contribution? I felt that is all the thread deserved a reply with to be honest. Mainly because it could easily be in the 'Generic Boyd Thread' Add to that, Boyd will be a fringe player this year -- and will not play in the CL -- or v the scum, or any other top 6 team. But... of course, bring him on v Ross County etc. I believe if ECK comes back in for him, this time he goes. He knows his # is up at The Rangers. Or is he as thick as Charlie Adam? Is that you Walter? Do you KNOW Boyd will be a fringe player? Hearts are a TOP 6 side apparently, he might start tomorrow? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECK has already been in for Boyd.. given that they cannot score goals, it is not entirely out of the question that he comes back before the window shuts. And since he came in for Boyd he has gone out and signed another forward for somewhere between 8-10 million. On top of that they have Jerome, O'Connor, Phillips and McFadden, aswell as Bent and McSheffrey, who they are looking to offload. I wouldn't entirely rule it out, but a move for Boyd would be very unlikely now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boyd will definitely get his games against ALL teams in the SPL & I've got a strong feeling that we'll see him getting some match time in some of the CL games as well.

MayboleLoyal_atb 3,687 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Boyd needs to play in an attacking 4-4-2 side, a team just coming up from a lower division aren't going to play that in the EPL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastEnclosureBear 2,919 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Yeah Boyd needs to play in a 4-4-2, he needs a man, thats going to run his arse off for him and make opportunities like Kenny Miller done last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegersandme 0 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 So. CMON ECK.. make another bid! You seem overly excited to rid of Boyd, why is that? Not at all mate. It's all been said before... But, IF ECK makes a bid -- and who knows? -- Walter will bite his hand off. Now, I know you're a Boyd fan -- perfectly ok I support him too. Given our 4-3-3 (hopefully), I can't see past the fact that Kris won't feature. It will be Miller/Naismith and A.N. Other. So, a decent bid -- and he has to go. Even he would realize surely? Given that IF he doens't feature much this year, being out of contract won't suit him at all. A bid of say 2-3mill nets him a nice pay day, we get cash, and the 4-3-3 gets the results. ok, so who do I call to get the Manager's job at Ibrox? lol At the end of the day, nothing's simple though?

StevenDavis 112 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 So. CMON ECK.. make another bid! You seem overly excited to rid of Boyd, why is that?
