Holmowl Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) Star running a poll today. Over a thousand votes so far. 10% of us think he will score 10 or less. 22% 11-15 (if Carlos rotates as much as other seasons that's a fair return) 34% 16-20 26% 21-25 (where my vote sits) and there's even 7% of us saying 26+ (I will have whatever you are drinking) When you read the pessimism many fans have on here about Jordan, it clearly isn't felt by the majority outside this forum. I suspect a few of the "10 or less" voters may be from across the city. Edited July 26, 2017 by Holmowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Reach recons Rhodes will score 20. Few of them assisted by him no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddyowl Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Owlstalk is definatly not a true reflection of our fan base. 80% are whining, whinging girls who have nowt better to do. Fact..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 No way he'll play enough to get 20 imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
np pontefract Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Pessimists in general are in the minority. I am pleased to say !!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshallovercome Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I think people are pessimistic(myself included) because we don't play to his strengths, hopefully that will change. But is it a coincidence that teams in the past who have never get anywhere near promotion? Huddesfield managed it without him......hopefully he'll do the business, but historically Jordan scoring loads of goals doesn't automatically mean we'll get promoted. fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Jordan Rhodes has the pedigree, transfer fee and wages to be a top goal scorer in the Championship this season. To speak plainly now is the time for him to prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IstillhateSteveBould Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 If he was to play 40 odd, he'd get 20 comfortably. There's no way he'll play that many with 6 other forwards to compete with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget we've heard all this before back in January Rhodes will tear the division a new one, he'll score for fun in this division, and his goals will take us to the Premier League That was the majority view then as well A few of us realists said he wouldn't back then, and of course were proven right Edited July 26, 2017 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueOwl Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 If Fletcher can get 15 last season in an indifferent team there's no reason why Rhodes can't better that over a season if we can get the midfield thriving. He's a confidence player and if we start well he'll take off like a rocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is I think he can better Fletchers return but in order for that to happen the whole team needs to start playing without fear and Rhodes will look like a different beast.

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Good service in and around the box and Rhodes is on the pitch, he'll score 20+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BULGARIA Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 he will be too busy trying to out jump 6ft 4" defenders after Westwood has hoofed yet another aimless ball in his direction to be scoring goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I don't think it's pessimistic I think it's realism with the way we play. I've said time and time again I didn't want to sign Rhodes because he doesn't suit the way we play. Now I hope Carlos addresses this and we give him chances and put balls in the box and with that he will score goals there is no doubt... it does however remain to be seen if we will play like that. My vote is between 11-15. Same for Fessi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
