Anyone else watched the interview on the main site?
‘Do you see your time at Man United as an apprenticeship for the step up to Bradford City?’
Fuck me.
And from Joe
‘It’s just moving from one big club to another, it’s not that different really’
The poor young fucker.

Which is bollocks, we are a tinpot league 1 club always have been.

Could be a good signing this, genuinely feel a bit positive about this....but I finished work early today, and I'm on my 8th pint....took me about 10 mins minutes to type this, so I'll reassess at tea time tomorrow Get in the music thread, it's lacking a drunk since I cut right back on my intake.

Added a poll.
We’ll do this for every signing, pool the results then see how accurate we are as the season progresses.
Are those options enough? We need to get this right before we start really.

Do we count ‘average’ as a ‘miss’ or does it warrant an option of its own?

Replace average with 'meh' for future polls.

Out for the season with a cruciate injury What a disastrous signing he turned out to be. Much of it not of his own making. Without wanting to sound too callous, is there any chance we’re insured for this sort of thing? Any chance we could have a portion or all of his wages paid? I know it happens higher up where the sums are vast and it’s unlikely to be common lower down but I’m looking for a crumb of comfort here. All when Salford were sniffing around too.

He was unlikely to feature much anyway but he’ll probably never play for the club again now and we’ve got no chance of shifting those huge wages on. What a complete disaster.

I know it happens higher up where the sums are vast and it’s unlikely to be common lower down but I’m looking for a crumb of comfort here. All when Salford were sniffing around too. I imagine we will have insurance for some extreme circumstances e.g. fatality. For a run of the mill injury, we need to bear in mind that this was an Enid signing and I doubt anything like that was given a moments thought. That being the case I think even the slimmest of chances will have evaporated.

Oh and another thing, it wouldn’t surprise me if this is used of an example of why you shouldn’t sign players on a long term contract.

I keep reading 'what a loss', 'what a shame' etc
What, losing someone who played 4 games in a year, the last one in october?
Yeah, massive loss. Of money.

Riley is a solid player. He started as a winger for United in the U18s but has been playing RB for at least 3 full seasons, and has handled the defensive part of the game pretty well considering it was a relatively recent transition. He's still maintained his attacking flair, too, which has seen him score some nice goals from the fullback position. He captained the U23s that got relegated from PL2 this season but was one of the few United players would could take some credit from the campaign. I think he will be a good to very good League One player, and can hold his own in the Championship if Bradford goes up, but I don't think he's got PL talent in the long run. Good signing for Bradford, IMO. Thanks for the input, m8

I'm surprised he managed to injury himself properly. Useless fucking fuckwit.
