Really bugs me we didn't get him after that friendly.

So every time someone plays well in a friendly the club should sign them?

Course not but compared to our other cms he had something different and imo was their best player that game and his attributes I felt would have suited KM ball perfectly

He was different class that day. As friendlies go, that was a quite competitive one and he shone. His form since, strongly suggests Frims is correct. I thought the same that day.
We bought Darren Currie on the basis he played well for Brighton against us. That worked out okay

Yeah Frimley you nutter. 🤪

Hard not to see it as an unfortunate oversight when we had a front-row seat to how good he was that summer. He stuck out to laymen like me as the best player on the pitch. He must have stuck out to Leeds' recruitment team too. £2m was a steal.

Im sticking up for Frimmers here.

I was at that match and he was the best player on the pitch by quite a margin.

I guess we had Cajuste and Phillips lined up at that stage tho.

It was an FA Cup match rather than a friendly, but a good performance for Chester led us to signing Jon Walters.

I thought the same thing at the time. Every now and again you see a player and can spot the talent, not many friendly games it happens.

Yep, on the negative side of the ledger we signed Ahadme after Burton played us - he gave Woolfie & Edmundson (I think?) the biggest battering they had all season.

We probably didn't make close to the £1m reported we sold him for but amazing that we probably doubled our money on him. Call it an Ipswich tax.. Charlton retribution fee, whatever lol.

A shame we didn't sign another Chester striker after we played them in the cup in 79/80. A certain Ian Rush.

What about that little winger who trimmed us up and we all clapped him off.

Anyone remember that kid Man Utd spent 12m after one decent friendly. Must have been over 20 years ago now. I wonder what happened to them.

No need for what? Simply asked a question - no malice or vindictiveness attached to it.

With hindsight Frimmers is undoubtedly right, but I totally get where Matt is coming from and tbh I was in the same camp in thinking that it would be dangerous to put too much store by a performance in a pre season friendly

Usually I would agree with you. Totally
But that game the ball stuck to him like glue. If there was ever a player to grab he was it.
