Blades Bring Back Kyle to 'Bart of Defence

this is a great signing for us just slightly gutted that we didn't have enough in our tank to make the move permanent...but wenger has obviouslly made it clear that he has a future at arsenal or so we are all lead to believe. can't seebartley breaking into the starting 11 for at least 5 years so a permanent deal may be possible soon...but would other clubs be interested and could we show enough ambition to talk him into a permanent move? probably not. i'm not slating jordan before i've seen him play but to be honnest i don't think he will get many games for us this season so a bit dissapointed we have decided on him and not someone else... what is really bugging me is the ambition...let me explain Cardiff city - loads of debt, talks of winding up ordersand unpaid tax bills - they manage to sign chopra and keep all there quality players apart from ledley.....now as soon as there embargo is lifted in comes 2 top quality players in koumas and olifinjana????? how how how!!! this is the sort of business we need to do and is deffinately the difference between getting promoted or plugging away in the championship for the next 13 seasons again!! we seem to be missing the desire to get promoted...cardiff are showing determination and ambition!! really p155es me off!!

i knew one of you lot would break the agreement and come onto our site first...so predictable...don't moan when i post on yours - hows the league 1 football going anyway, or should i say division 3 football!! [Edited by Shepsblade]

bartley has signed long term deal at arsenal before joining us - he'll be in their team within 3 years bfl - he'll have this year with us, 6 months at arsenal, another premiership loan for half a season then be in and around the squad...this lad has real quality and will play for england within five years - some people have got it and this kid has...give him ten games to get into it and he'll be quality this season....get nos at right back, him and morgs centre backs, taylor / jordan left back, get ertl in to midfield for a bit more presence with britton couple of wingers and evans and cresswell up front and we've a very decent starting eleven (well at home anyway!)

Great loan signing. The kid has great long term potential and will be a fixture in Arsenals side in the years to come. I expect this season to be his break through year, I would have him alongside Morgs right away with Nos at right back and Taylor or Jordan at left back. Ertl into mid field and all of a sudden we have a more solid look to the defense. CONGRATULATIONS to Blackwell / Birch / McCabe for being ambitious enough to secure his return.

Rumours that BDTBL ticket office sold 1200 tickets for QPR game yesterday alone.

Sounded like a good one to miss, Gleadless. was it as bad as the commentary sounded?

i learned my lesson years ago to when warnock used to throw games like this but i couldnt get to cardiff or qpr so thought id pop along, ground to tick off and all that and young ones off school so took them..yeah i was a good one to miss...KB treated it like a pre season friendly - they never got into first gear let alone past it - only britton deserved any credit as he tried to get them going but he jsut got ignored as players jsut lumped it all game...kozzie wsa an embarrasment - not worth the £600 a week we are giving - he got tortutred by monkhouse and gave away a sloppy pen..monty was awful too - i was ne who made the case for him to stay but games like last night showed that he shouldnt be a starter - yes great at a cardiff game covering and breaking it up but last night the ball just got passed around him, he offered no support to james and chappell who deserved better, britton was all over doing his work, took no responsibility and didnt want the ball - to top it off it was his bad pass that led to their break fo rthe second....hes played at championship lvel for ten years and last night he looked conference standard - he should dominate games like taht...it said it all that our only two attmepts on target were in last few minutes when bartley played up front (replacing single striker cresswell!!!) - our only other shot was yeates who shot wide earlier in second half - that was it three attempts all game! three!! As for KB well he never stood up all game, so i give him credit for at last learning from NW and knowing how to chuck a game....the fact that he played one up front was a joke - i know he loves that system away from home but he didnt give chappel and james chance to get invovled on their debuts - really poor...he had a face like thunder when the away end celebrated as though a goal went in went bartley forced flinders into a save near the end - hartlepool fans were laughing and applauding us for being able to take the mick out of ourselves...i thought with the tough start we had (cardiff, boro, qpr) that he would have used this game to get a win under their belts, two or three goals and get into qpr...they prob still will turn them over but last night was a joke - nothing against pool but they arent great - wendy will stick four psat them at the end of the month...cracking little ground mind

just wants to add to gleadless i agree its not fair on the 600 and odd of us that went 2 shots on target and one of them was bartley who qwent upfront and not just that 1 upfront at hartlepool what was blackwell thinking
