No way did we only pay what we paid for Wes Burns! on 11:08 - Dec 8 by FrimleyBlue
Rubbish no Overated and inconsistent. Yes.
Burns is good at what he does. That is pace, being direct and cross / shot. He doesn't have all the tools in the box say of Philogene but that's fine. He focuses on what he is good at and is very successful at that. If teams set up to nullify that then he can be more limited but it doesn't make him inconsistent.

You are a plank clearly.
I didn't get involved in this thread until a poster goaded me to do so. It's only fair I respond to such a post
You're now crying because you've read something you don't agree with rather than just moving on.
So yeah. Plank.
No, again you are wrong. You labeled one of our best players as overrated and inconsistent.And you faced backlash because of it. There was no goading, there was reaction to your toxic trolling.
And the only thing crying here is the floorboards that sit underneath you as you revel in the mountains of ridiculous nonsense you post on here.
If you do want to carry on doing the whole disharmony and hot takes stuff- at least learn how to argue well, it's disappointing seeing a grown man with such a weak retort

A reaction to what? I hadn't posted anything for them to react to

Grown man, you sure? If frimmers is over 14 I’d be amazed. As for burns we are very lucky to have him, any better and he wouldn’t be here.

No. Its just people jazz themselves coz he scored a worldie last week when he took the same shot weeks before and it went into the stand like a high % of his shots and crosses.
How dare I want better from a player boo hiss.
As someone said earlier, the guy has 25 goals and a similar number of assists from just over 100 appearances. What the actual fck would you want more from a winger at this level, or indeed ANY level?
Sometimes I wonder if Phil controls your account and just gobsh!tes for views and comments. You've no idea about the game, Barton should be going after 'fans' like you not female pundits.

You said I was trolling. If I was then i would have jumped on the thread as soon as it was made. I did not
I responded to a poster.
You've then cried about my reply again like I've belittled a family member of yours.
Grow up ffs
I've not cried at all, I'm disappointed that you're not living up to your own declaration
Evening all by chrismakin3 Nov 2021 19:55 Would like to apologise for this mornings post and to those within.
Regardless of what goes on behind closed doors isn't am excuse to be a dkck myself.
I think there's a few I socialise positively well with on here so I'd like to keep that going but will read the room before posting. I'll certainly refrain from live in game posting which I think has caused the most recent issues.
We are all town fans. And we are all on here to discuss football in a positive light and constructively discuss negatives. But there is a way to do it, which I've failed at.
I understand what have been my faults and appreciate what we are all here to do.
I'd like to move forward so this is a request from those I've had run ins with, if we can, without the need to revisit previous posts, it solves no purpose and will ensure going forwards we are all going in 1 direction, I can't post how you wish me to post if I'm having to counter old arguments, can we draw a line under it all..
Anyways. As town fans.we are about to enjoy the ride of our lives ( well since 2000). So I'm in to enjoy it with everyone.
Your season of swipes and arbitrarily negative toxicity about Wes Burns really falls far from discussing the positives (which his output is) or the negatives (which his output isn't) constructively .
No. Its just people jazz themselves coz he scored a worldie last week when he took the same shot weeks before and it went into the stand like a high % of his shots and crosses.

Ooh, ooh, Burns' shots and crosses into the stand percentage? You consider that to be high? That percentage is made up of quantifiable numbers? Numbers that someone has worked out? Someone like you? You must have the exact figures, right?
Just one small problem; sell their houses to who, Ben? Fcking Aquaman?

All of Burns' shots are more accurate than your posts.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

He was our stand out player in his first season here. POTS, top goal scorer. Rightfully recognised with his inclusion to the Wales squad. 8 goals and 11 assists in the League last season. When we utilised both sides of the pitch with the arrival of Leif.. Is an excellent return. And a great contribution to our promotion. This season is youngish. I mean, the stats for Wes are lower. But we've been up against a much better class of opposition. And when he's not providing assists and goals, he's still a foil for the likes of Chaplin or Broadhesd or even Clarke/Williams to find space.. Add to that, his playing relationship with some of our other key players, like Chappers, Hirst, Morsey. He , imo, helps to get a bit more from those.. When we talk about consistency, absolute consistency. That is a rarity in any player. We are lucky to have Davis and Morsy for their absolute consistency levels.. Most others will have the odd , less than perfect game, or moment... Use Hirst as an example, there. Could probably have put away 1 or 2 chances he's had to score. But he is still integral to the way we play, as is Wes, imo. Who, for me, is still improving under KM. And getting more and more streetwise, too.

I was told at the time it was between £100k and £150k, which is probably about right as CEO's like to talk down fees like he did last night!
But I've mentioned before, that I'd say he's our best 'pound for pound' signing we made.....Morsy and Walton fees were similar but they obviously had good Championship wage packets alongside them
Burns has been absolutely fantastic
I'm not sure why Ashton would talk down £100k/£150k to £60k. It's much of a muchness in footballing terms, and even at the top end of those figures it's still a steal.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Utter nonsense. Like all players, he will have quiet spells for a couple of games. Broadhead is going through one at the moment. But Wes is one of our most consistent performers and performs more times than not.
Like Morsy, take him out of the team and we are nowhere near as good as when he's in it.

replies to this thread remind me why I've ignored the likes of elephant and frimley.
kudos to the rest of you, you must have the patience of saints...
Put him on ignore a week or so ago. Made being on here so much more pleasurable. Would urge everybody on here to do it, just to shut him up if nothing else.

Lol. How is it attention seeking by clarifying that I didn't call him rubbish. Your issue should be with the poster who clearly aimed their post at me rather than me responding to it.
Lol? Are you a 14 year old girl?
You didn’t call him rubbish but you’ve spouted enough tripe about him to tick people off. Like your comments on this thread for example.
Take your ridiculous amount of down votes and fook off.

Sht happens .
Bizarrely, though, sht hasn't happened at FPR. It's been the complete opposite of sht. Most League wins in a calendar year in a near 150 year history kind of stuff.
And you actively want one of our players to fail, and mock those who get excited because he scored a goal which could put him (and his teammates who contributed to it) in the running for the Puskas.
A player, who, the thread reminds us, cost us less than a month or twos wages to Chopra, or any of the other mercenary wasters we have had to put up with in recent years.
A player who gets on well with his teammates, plays with a smile on his face, and has come back from injury recently.
There is nothing to dislike about him, as a Town fan, and yet, remarkably, you find a way to wage a one man campaign of sniping and sneering at him.
It's very odd behaviour.

Frimmers makes a hot take, it goes wrong, then instead of holding his hands up he doubles down at every slight opportunity he thinks he can get to show there was some merit in his thoughts.
He called Burns "whackaball" and so has undermined him ever since. Even after scoring one of the greatest goals in our history Frimmers has to take the shine off it... and it's all because he (Frimmers) got it wrong.
The thing about trying to 'save face' is it doesn't really work if everyone can see that's what you're doing.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.
