    What has any of this got to do with Leon Cort signing ?

    well if his name is short he can sign quicker ;- )

    PS SHG, have you seen the shirt sponsorship thread.  Curb-it was trying to contact you.

    Do we take the name game hijack of this thread to mean we're underwhelmed by this signing? Normally we bang on that because he now plays for us he's going to turn into Bobby Moore overnight.......

    Burnley fans didn't like him, nor did mngmnt by the look of things and he did nothing there.  PNE fans were desperate, with a defence as holey as a pair of lacy knickers and thought he was jesus christ almighty...well "a rock" to quote their fanboards, though even they conceded he wasn't fast.  I'm hoping CP can get the best out of him and the opportunity to show his worth and be part of a season-winning team will motivate him to do the necessary for us.  We've been a little spoiled by all our fancy signings of late, this time last year we'd have been making up new songs for him....

    Who was it who said he would be gone by the end of August again? ;)

    If he is going to miss games because these countries play during our season, makes you wonder if its worth having the loan.   Who pays the wages when they go missing ??

    Their just qualifiers. He will only miss one league match.

    Could we call our game off because we've got internationals or is it only in the championship?

    I think you have to have three players absent on international duty, or be in the CCC/prem.

    Thought he played really well yesterday , considering how much game time he's missed recently , he coped with the aerial threat of Brentford well , stuck his head in where it hurts and didn't hide on the pitch.

    As a few journos have said, he would be a starter in most League One clubs plus a lot of Champ clubs too.

    Leon played really well against Brentford and was a genuine threat in the sir. Great to have a decent centre half like him as back up to Morrison and Taylor

    Why was Taylor dropped anyway? Or was he just rested?

    My guess is that with 2 games in 48 hours, Chrissy decided to inject some energy into the team through the spine.

    I think he was rested , when we played Brentford away , they bombarded us in the air all the time , perhaps also CP thought Cort would be best suited for this game, to counter the aerial threat?

    I thought he was one of our better players. The only problem was his positioning (but that was soon fixed) and the ball at his feet. In the air he was top class. Great player to have around. Morrison mentioned that he's learned a lot off of Leon Cort too.

    Strange how people see things differently. Me and mate talking during the game that despite being about the tallest bloke there he never won a header, until the one where he gave the foul away on the edge of the box. 
    Thought he was poor in the air and positional play a little out but he hasn't played much so that's excusable. Worked really hard and got his body in the way numerous times so showed that he's good enough.
    Wouldn't want him over Taylor or Morrisson though.

    The OS suggested that he was rested.
