Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
How the "mighty" have fallen. Apart from a purple patch when he first went back to Ipswich, can't seem to score for toffees, what's gone wrong? Perhaps he'll get his mojo back in the NL. I wish him luck.

They've even got a new scoreboard don't you know.

Indeed , he knows Sutton very well . He'll be hoping to carrying on scoring against them on Saturday . I have to say this is a very good signing for Southend . Along with Moncur he'll certainly do a job for them .

Totally overrated player. I'll tell you one thing, he couldn't put away half chances for toffee!

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
Never a Championship standard player but should have carved out a very decent L1/ L2 career.
Something has obviously gone wrong for him to end up in NL at 28. I hope Maher is able to sort him out.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
To be honest I don't think much did 'go wrong for him'. He's just that sort of player who had a phase when things went right for him. (Apart from his instinctive reactions in front of goal, that is)

Pretty sure a lot of people on here were whining that Ling failed to bring him back.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
Something off-field has clearly happened. He did well enough at L1 level after leaving us to (mistakenly) attract interest from the Championship.Chief crazy horse wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2024 9:28 am To be honest I don't think much did 'go wrong for him'.

Well, I don't really think so... but there you go, we'll leave it at that.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
But after a successful season in NL with us, he did well enough in his first season in L1 to secure a Championship move - that happened, you can't just leave that.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
Oh you meant you wanted to have the final word? Sorry.
I can't let that happen when you're so clearly wrong. Let's leave it at that.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
All I was more or less saying is that you have your opinion that i am wrong about Bonne and i have mine that you are clearly wrong ...stalemate. But then your childish mind got to work about having the last say.

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
The fact he did well enough in L1 with Charlton to earn a move to the Championship isn’t an opinion though, it’s a fact.
But agreed, let’s leave it there

Re: Macauley Bonne signs for......
Can't quite, just yet. The 'opinion' bit was about Bonne's overall rating as a player, which I think you know.
It wasn't specifically about how well he did with Charlton..
