    He's daft. He's dark. He's demonic.

    He's Stuart Pearce crossed with Liam Gallagher.

    He's a loose cannon.

    He's a character in a pool of bland footballing robots.

    He's worth watching and worth his place in the team.

    He can stop for a few more years with my best wishes.

    Might be against the grain, but I don't think we should have done this. He's alright at this level, but I don't think he's good enough for the Championship, which is where I hope we plan to be next season and beyond.

    That said, he's only 23 so I hope he improves his game and this proves to be a prudent signing.

    A few seasons ago people said Anderson was useless and he made mistake after mistake in the championship fans wrote him off even making a photoshop with mads with clown outfit on social media, and since then he has come on leaps and bounds and we will be lucky to keep him.
    Kitching can only get better and like you say still 23.

    If we miss out on promotion this year, someone may well come in for him, he's on a long contract now, so we potentially could get more, that's all its for, nothing to do with if we think he's good enough for the Championship.

    I understand your concerns definitely mate. But I'd agree with others, I think it's a good thing. I think he's a very solid defender, he's improved (I think it's probably helped him that we got relegated), sometimes gets caught out of position but I think that's much improved too. Obviously he's a bit of a hot head and very rash at times, but I don't think we can do anything about that, some players are just naturally that way. Can't fault his effort/work rate/determination or anything similar. The problem is his passing, especially his short/medium passing - it's atrocious at times. Albeit I even think he has bettered himself on that as the season has gone on. He goes on great runs and gets in some fantastic forward positions but often ruins it by hitting it mass too hard or nowhere near accurate enough, but as I said I think he's working on it and I think it's steadily getting better, his diagonal balls for Williams these passed couple of months have been fantastic. Personally I'm glad he's signed a new contract and hope Duff & his staff keep on improving him

    I don't understand people who keep peddling this nonsense as a dig towards the club. EVERY football club is a selling club. Especially skint ones in league one. Do you think Forest Green wanted to lose half their playing squad? Every year people come out and say it's nefarious what the club is doing, only want money, using it as a way to bash club. Reminds me when people were getting on at owners for 'selling all our best players on cheap', whilst literally slating the club for not selling Styles quick enough to bring other players in. I personally don't think this board has done much wrong other than the HEX fiasco and an extra striker, and so I don't understand why people cannot wait to tar the new & old board with the same brush. It's just what football is now & we will sell plenty more of our best players year after year even when our current owners are long gone. The 'new' board need more than 1 transfer window to sort out the crap of last season.

    BFC have always, always been a selling club. It's how we've survived. We'll continue to be so but hopefully more often in a position of greater strength than we were in the close season.

    Yep. Completely agree bud. I get people dislike the board/owners. But using something we've always done & what every other single non-elite club do just to bash the club is petty. They conveniently leave out the part where the player didn't want to stay too. If a player doesn't wanna be here and isn't applying himself or isn't happy, we should get rid.

    Good start! Hopefully a couple more to follow, most notably Andersen and Williams for me.
