Badger Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 New name and suggestion to me. I note some of their posters refer to a pending court case for him ,not sure if that is the sort of track record NA & NC will want to bring in to the building.

S-Clarke Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 I thought about him in the summer, but up until now he'd never really realized his true form at Sheff U. I think as with alot of good young players that looe their way slightly, sometimes dropping a level can regain belief and confidence and he's scoring for fun at the mo and to be fair is better than L1. He wasn't cheap either, I think they paid £3m for him from Man City when he was a very highly rated youngster and seemed destined for regular international honors. I think it would be a good move, he's found his form and has his confidence back - and is finally showing his true potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patred44 Posted 12 December, 2011 Author Share Posted 12 December, 2011 he has a date with the judge.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-north-east-wales-14713900 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 Was vaguely decent at Man City, lost his way for a couple of years, started scoring goals again for Sheffield United in League One. Sort of age we like, sort of problems we don't, but you never know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellone Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 It was in the mirror a couple of sundays ago. Took it as press speculation so didn't post about it. Had a look at who he is on the internet and thought prospect material, then remembered I know jack about football and forgot about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 he has a date with the judge.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-north-east-wales-14713900 According to the first link you posted, the trial is set for March , which might prove a bit of a distraction from our promotion push. In light of this , I suspect we will steer clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintNeil90 Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 As usual people will look at stats and say hes crap. I've been to quite a few Sheffield Utd games over the last couple of years due to my dad being a fan and me going to University in Sheffield. I think Ched would be a good signing. He's an energetic player, very hard working, fairly quick, strong and a handful. He is similar to CMS. He is also only 22 so room to develop. Think we could also get him for a cut price due to Sheffield Utd financial restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkenSaint Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 heard this about 2-3 weeks ago, good signing if true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintNeil90 Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 Oh and dont think just because he has a court case for ALLEGEDLY commiting a sexual offence that he has a bad attitude. He is the complete opposite and I guarantee he is proved innocent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 Interesting that someone on the Blades site has linked us with Billy Sharp again. Are they similar type players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the complete opposite and I guarantee he is proved innocent! He may indeed have a good attitude, and be innocent, but irrespective of this and the outcome of the case, I would be surprised if we took on a player who might be unavailable for a (minimum) couple of weeks during a key time in the season.

Colinjb Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 Seems to fit our blueprint. Capable, can add something but never really fullfilled their potential. Ultimately, In Nigel we trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Bald_Si Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 lol - not a chance we'll sign him, can't see Nigel going after a player that's got himself into a bit of bother. Plus it's hearsay on the Sheff Utd forum, hardly a source of any substance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbojones10 Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 id take him on loan till end of season as cover for lambert, think we can do a little better then that really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 Was good for Norwich a few years back. There's better out there, but he wouldn't be a bad signing - although he'd need to be one of two attacking players brought in, as we also need pace.

the saint in winchester Posted 12 December, 2011 Share Posted 12 December, 2011 I would say "yes please." That guy has become a goal machine. His name comes up all the time with Stelling and the boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintNeil90 Posted 13 December, 2011 Share Posted 13 December, 2011 Evans is far better than Barnard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Give it to Ron Posted 13 December, 2011 Share Posted 13 December, 2011 If we're after players who've proven themselves in League 1 surely you're all happy to just give Barnard the chance instead? Isn't he injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the complete opposite and I guarantee he is proved innocent! Quite true innocent till proven guility and all that....but I imagine most clubs would rather await the outcome of a the trial (especially alleged rape) before sinking a few quid into a player just in case he is found guility.

Foxstone Posted 13 December, 2011 Share Posted 13 December, 2011 Talented lad and a regular in an improving Welsh squad - Thought highly of at NCFC when he had a spell there.. Would not be adverse to him at all - let's face it our manager has the gift to bring the best out of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted 13 December, 2011 Share Posted 13 December, 2011 If we're after players who've proven themselves in League 1 surely you're all happy to just give Barnard the chance instead? As I recall Evans has played regularly and scored regularly in the Championship in the past. All for giving Barny a chance if fit but he isn't. As for signing Evans - he could be good for us but would prefer Sharp or JRod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
