Adelakun

[Colemans Left Hook]

Talking of which - Grant says more signings to come AND at least one more up top? Really?

Guess that depends which of GMs interviews were recorded first?

Grant says there will be more coming in after Liam says "that's four in so far" ie McCann,Robinson, Orinoko

Orinoko

Let’s hope he quickly finds his flow.

i wonder if he could qualify for Colombia or Venuswala(as I call it) I was shocked to find Everton paid a million £ for him from Sunderland for him. There was no mention of that when he signed for Lincoln

Ramadan 2026 is from the of 17th of February until the 18th of March. Now did I google that or will I be taking part myself  ?

I hope no British professional footballer will be taking part in that archaic, anti scientific remnant of Pagan Moon worship.

Not  good to go without liquid whilst involved in strenuous exercise.
Food fasting, as I  go through for periods occasionally of 24/36 hours, bringing in  something called autophagy that repairs the body, has benefits,  though I never go without  sufficient liquid, nor do I make a public display of fasting for  a very limited amount of time and then gorging myself on crap, especially sweet  food as a reward for doing nothing.

The Christians, though I myself have no need to indulge in the fantasy beliefs of sky fairies at least do give up something,  for long periods over Lent,  something that involves commitment over a long period and not  ended with gluttony and gorging like  pigs just because the Moon has appeared.

Adelakun has a few months to prove he still has desire to do what's necessary to thrive in this division so hopefully that's his target set by Grant,.
Please,  no announcement that he's  joining and already has an 18 month  contract

He can do as he pleases. Mind your own business.

How's that sound now,  you ready to give him a contract for next season,  if he hadn't already got one, based on his performances so far,  I  wasn't.  I said he shouldn't have been given 18 months.

Wow! Just wow! Whatever I think about Adelakun rejoining, it has nothing to do with his religion! I’m agnostic/atheist but believe humans can make their own decisions on what they want to believe. To just dismiss the views of the majority of the human race, I have no words, just wow!! 

Sir, you're an idiot.
I never said his signing had anything to do with religion.
You'd have been good a few hundred years ago.
Then "the vast majority of the human race" thought the Sun went round the Earth.
I too think humans can believe what they like. Idiots can believe Harry Potter is performing miracles. Just as a talking angel delivering messages from God.
Actually I don't think Ramadumb has affected Adelakun at all. It's easy for a footballer in Northern Europe early spring climate to deal with eating loads before sunrise and then to scoff loads after sunset.

Did you mean to write,  no it's a good idea to immediately place Adelakun on an 18 month contract?

Or perhaps you too aren't into having diet imposed according to the stricture of the vagaries of cycles of the Moon?

Smyth everyone is fed up of your pub bore shite.

Half of your posts over the last month are you gunning for a player of the team you’re supposed to support because you don’t like his life choices and religion. Surprised it’s being allowed to continue.

Half my posts over the last month? I  think not. I was replying to idiocy, so forgive me? My first post, long after I supported Grant in not  mentioning his name after he wouldn’t sign after the play off defeat, was that refusal came about because Adelakun expected filthy lucre from a league 1 club?

The offer didn't come.
It didn't happen for a reason.

Any chance you and the utter simpleton that's replied below you could deal with the points I've made, regarding the stupidity of giving someone the comfort of an 18 month contract when that player has an history of relaxing and sitting back when not having the immediate concern of a new contract.
Different player when he's something to prove,  as his history proves. That's why I  said BEFORE he signed in January that I  hope he isn't given 18 months.

As for the political ideology of Islam and Ramadumb it wasn't me that introduced that.
Poster, can't remember, possibly Draytonian or IDM, who said the need for a player to gorge on food before sunrise and after sunset shouldn't affect that person's performance on the pitch,  I didn't disagree with that, it may do in Arabia but not in Northern European climes.

Would you now offer a contract next  season to Alelakun, how about  one also for D.Robinson?

More stupid willfully missing the point.  My main point bonehead is the neither Robinson nor Adelakun should've got  18 months.

In the case of Adelakun it's because he's done nothing in league 1 for  years unless he's something to prove,  I.e. winning another contract,  indeed you can apply that equally to league 2.

Poster, can't remember, possibly Draytonian or IDM, who said the need for a player to gorge on food before sunrise and after sunset shouldn't affect that person's performance on the pitch,  I didn't disagree with that, it may do in Arabia but not in Northern European climes.

Would you now offer a contract next  season to Alelakun, how about  one also for D.Robinson?

All I did was inform on what dates Ramadan ran between, nothing else , so don’t try deflect things on to me

Ah, Draytonuan, Smyth is not one to accept responsibility is he....

Ramadan 2026 is from the of 17th of February until the 18th of March. Now did I google that or will I be taking part myself  ?

I hope no British professional footballer will be taking part in that archaic, anti scientific remnant of Pagan Moon worship.

Not  good to go without liquid whilst involved in strenuous exercise.
Food fasting, as I  go through for periods occasionally of 24/36 hours, bringing in  something called autophagy that repairs the body, has benefits,  though I never go without  sufficient liquid, nor do I make a public display of fasting for  a very limited amount of time and then gorging myself on crap, especially sweet  food as a reward for doing nothing.

The Christians, though I myself have no need to indulge in the fantasy beliefs of sky fairies at least do give up something,  for long periods over Lent,  something that involves commitment over a long period and not  ended with gluttony and gorging like  pigs just because the Moon has appeared.

Adelakun has a few months to prove he still has desire to do what's necessary to thrive in this division so hopefully that's his target set by Grant,.
Please,  no announcement that he's  joining and already has an 18 month  contract

There's a separate section of the forum for politics.

No politics in my post, bonehead.

Though irrational belief and ideology do make a short mention in this post.

Hope you don't mind me saying, but as comebacks go, this probably wasn't worth the two months of effort put into it.

Another simpleton with nothing to write.  My post was from nine weeks ago, it didn't take two months effort,  it took a couple of minutes. Care to remind people what you wrote  prioto his getting an 18 month contract?

Even two minutes seems a bit of a waste to be honest.

I'm glad you're aware of my posting taking the pics out of Olowu too for chasing filthy lucre being most important.

You may not be aware but towards the end of last season people were saying because of his religion he wanted to move to London as the explanation of him not signing for us. How's that sounding now. People writing oh he's a really nice bloke.

Tell that to Owen Bailey

Genuine question - should we be looking at players who eat all-day breakfasts?

What the feck has that got to do with  Olowu?

Reading through the posts and the issue here is that there is lack of respect! For the the player, his religion and other posters who have commented Smyth. I dont care for religion but i respect and understand people who do. I wouldn't continually refer to it as Ramadumb or label the posters who have questioned your post, idiots, simpletons, boneheads etc. That is a reflection of you and your social skills!

Its sad really as i dont really care and im not offended it the slightest. However like most organisations they have rules about representation whilst playing or working so they are not deemed  to be favouring or supporting one view over another.

[Chris Black come back]

Think that’s right. If someone had an armband supporting Buddhism or Islam, they would get the same treatment. Conceivably if some Catholic made the case that their Lent fast was physically damaging, am sure they’d be given some support. It just happens that Ramadan is a month long fast. That’s a big physical commitment hence the level of support. People looking to create division where it is not there. Likewise with poppies. If people don’t want to wear them, fine. If they do, also fine.

[Usher wide.]

These ‘quotes upon quotes’, it gets to the stage where it looks as though you’re reading a bar code!

That’s if you can be arsed to read adults arguing the toss among themselves that is.
