Manor Solomon

[Railway Blade]

solomon would be a fantastic signing imo and would soften the blow if hamer goes as rodley has said hes far better quality than barry so for me he goes straight in the team on the left with barry switching to the right and still think another striker will come in over the weekend with cannon going out on loan possibly back to stoke

It's interesting stuff. Barry could also play as a 10. Where does Chong fit ? He can play left wing or attacking midfield.
What it would give us with Chong, Barry,, O'Hare, Solomon, Brooks is loads of options , loads of energy and an ability to play with a high intensity and rotate during the game to keep the intensity high throughout the match.

A girlfriend who tried to drop the charges, stayed with the guy and had a kid together.

That's very weird.

Not a millionaire by any chance is he?

 

[Blade56]

I know apologies for drifting back to football.

No need to apologise

FWIW, my political thoughts on the matter in question is there are a lot of innocent people having their lives ruined.

Don’t need to know your political views

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Can’t see Choudhury coming back now

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Its nothing to do with a tweet. Showing support for the IDF is not a good look.

I think that's the problem though, the tweet is being misrepresented. He didn't say anything pro IDF, it was a remembrance tweet about a terror attack. I could definitely see why people would have a problem if he came out in support of the IDF atrocities. If an American or Brit made a 9/11 or 7/7 remembrance post, it doesn't automatically mean they support the abhorrent shit our governments did across the middle east, and it definitely doesn't mean we shouldn't sign them to play football.

Imagine we bring him in and keep Hamer.

Don't want to get greedy, but a man can dream.

2 kids later.

She could've made herself rich selling the story

Sorry to burst your bubble

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Are we pursuing him regardless of Hamer?

Are we planning to play him on the right?

100% this.

Let's state facts for what they are.

He hasn't supported or praised the attacks by Israel any point.

The only thing he has done is condemn the killing of children in his homeland which is fair enough.

Feels like people want to attack him for simply being an Israeli. (and I'm not just talking Sheffield United fans, West Brom and Leicester fans etc are equally accusatory)

If someone can prove he's actually supported Israel's actions then I would be far more concerned. But as far as know that doesn't exist.

Unless you know 100% his feelings on the matter then I suggest we leave politics out of this and let his football on the pitch do the talking.

Thanks in advance

Can't see him signing if I'm honest.. may even prem bound!

 

[Varkanoid]

He was fantastic for Leeds this would be a great signing if true.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

What frustrates me massively with this, is that if we were able to sign players like this, even just a couple of them, why have we taken such a gamble with the manager?

Clearly a bit of stability, whether with Wilder or someone similar, in addition to signings of Soloman's quality would have guaranteed us a top end finish

As it is, these quality players stand to just be swallowed up in the avoidable mediocrity and instability of this extreme transition we've elected to embark on

You never know these quality players might play well

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

Solomon was very good for Leeds last season, but he was their LW.

So what would be the plan with Barry?

It's called competition for places in a strong squad.

 

[Houston_Blade]

You've put 2 and 2 together, got Gus Uhlenbeek and now trying to make it my problem.

Give it a rest. Its only an issue if you have the reading comprehensive of roadkill

Ok, resorting to questioning my intelligence because I disagree with you on an internet forum is a much more reasonable course of action. I wonder if I can use any form of criminal activity as an analogy to counter your viewpoint?!

 

[john Mathison]

Seriously, why would anyone of the most minimal ITK post on these forums. Its not worth the abuse you get, even if you are correct.

Let me know where these fall on the "just condemning killing in his own homeland"

 

[Barry Butlin]

Not to get too deep into this.....but all this didn't start on October 7th. It's been going on

 

[Barry Butlin]

If we could keep Hamer & sign Solomon now that would be worth watching, it would give Hamer a lift & the whole team too..

 

[riselikeasalmon]

This thread has really exposed some ignorant views.

Look I get it, this lad at championship level is a game changer and is exactly what we need. People are desperate for the team to improve. All I have stated is it is a divisive signing and I will explain exactly why.

Its nothing to do with a tweet. Showing support for the IDF is not a good look. The IDF are currently carrying out some of the most heinous crimes the world has ever seen, all livestreamed in realtime and their leaders are wanted for crimes against humanity. Before anyone says October the 7th that does not excuse or condone what is going on now.

Just cause you don't give a shit about politics, or morality or about anyone other than your own , that doesnt mean people who do care about such matters do not have a legitimate right to voice their opinion any more than you do yours.

I can totally understand people who want nothing to do with anything associated with the IDF right now.

Calling them snowflakes ar other such bollocks just shows you to be simple minded and ignorant.

Im not gonna stop going or have a meltdown if he signs, it's not like I have to agree with every players opinions or views.

I stand to be corrected 100%, I have no skin in this game, but has he actually supported the IDF?

Happy to eat the humble pie on this too but I think we have 0% of signing him as well

I really didn't want to get drawn into this but if you're going to try and annihilate someone's reputation at least offer some context. There's no dates on those extracts. I suspect they are from around Oct 23 a time of heightened tension after the festival massacre.
This is a horrible conflict all round with so much wasted loss of life on both sides a conflict not just of 77 years but of thousands of years dating BC of Philistines and Hebrews and the Kingdom of Judah and the many subsequent conflicts for this land.
It's a very complicated issue. Too complicated for me to understand.
I just wish they could talk and the horror of it stops.
Right that's me done with it now. No more.

I posted about 3 or 4 comments above screenshots of his Insta where he does so

Heightened tensions or otherwise - immediately blaming the deaths of innocents on one side using the infamously corrupt and biased IDF media/Israeli government is 100% supporting once side and defending their actions.

The conflict is complicated, agreed - disavowing actions and a government shouldn't be

The first one absolutely doesn’t say anything about the IDF does it?

The second one does say IDF so yes he is taking their position on that one

The third is by association the same as the second

They still don’t say I support what the IDF is doing in Gaza so I still think to insinuate from that he supports the starvation and bombing of civilians, while it may or may not be true, is not based on any evidence I have yet seen but as before stand to be corrected

Which morality and ethical checklist are we getting our employees to complete nowadays before we employ them?

Who is the arbiter of acceptable opinions?

Still think there is 0% chance we will sign him

I believe there were also incidents throughout last season where he crossed that line - let me just check what I sent to my mate who's a Leeds fan
