I think we all wish him to succeed.
I honestly think if he was playing at a higher level it would suit his game better me
 
We will do well to.hang onto Colwill.
In the right team he could outstanding.
We normally bring him on when we are chasing the game and hoping he will create something.
Next season is massive for him.
I really think he has the skill to be a big success.
Yeah I suppose he'd look OK in the Brazil team 1970...mind you so would i
 

You've not seen his banana free kicks.

I think he gets a lot of negative remarks not all is justified.
I got a feeling that is going change people's mind soon.I hope so anyway.
He can't get in the Wales squad although he was taken to the world cup as a kid,he can't make the Cardiff starting eleven under three managers I know of..there's more...do you think they are all wrong?
If he dosent watch out he will be up in Merthyr,do you think he is knocking the managers door asking why he don't get a start in a team that finished bottom of the Championship.
l remember when Dave Jones was here and he asked one of his coaches why Joe Ledley was moody in training the week after the week end game.He was told it was because he was substituted for the first time since he broke into the first team.Thats the difference football is and never was solely about ability.
Believe it or not I wish the boy well but if he dosent get out of his comfort zone he won't have a career....he needs to move on

What I seen of him he might need to move on but not beneath Championship level.
I don't argue with what you say but I honestly feel the boy has something that can be worked on.
He has always played in a struggling.team.Be nice to see him in a winning side.
 
In so many ways Colwill reminds me of a player from the seventies..Tony Villars,more ability than most I've seen in a Cardiff shirt ever.
Ian Gibson who had a great career and was superb for us for a couple of seasons,was quoted as saying Villars has the potential to be a player worth £100,000 if he left the City.
He had one great season when we got the goal that kept us in the old second division,and had a couple of excellent seasons,where he was mentioned in the same bracket as Peter Taylor of Palace who went on to Tottenham and played for England,while Villars career went no where and he ended up a milkman.Ability alone will never get you where you should be in football

Plenty with ability have come and gone over the years sadly.He's 23,he should know his role,he's not a kid anymore
 
Great chance to tear up L1 and shine:thumbup:

So we are all in agreement Colwill either ruins League one defence’s by December or he’s getting Meite treatment :thumbup:

Agree about Villars. He looked as if he was going to be a star but never kicked on. I think attitude and commitment finds a lot of talented youngsters out.

good players help turn struggling teams around. No use only looking good whilst getting an armchair ride

Think you’re wrong there Bri.

Pretty sure Earnie was the milkman.

I'd rate Villars in the same way I do Ken Zohore - for a short while, it was worth going to games just to watch him. I was at the Greg Farrell match, but was too young to appreciate how good he was that night. However, if he was better than Villars was against Palace in 1974 then he must have been brilliant - it really was among the best individual performances I've seen in my life.

I can remember so looking forward to the 74/75 season starting so I could start watching Villars play for City again, but, whatever he had disappeared over the summer and, rather like Rubin Colwill, we went down with him unable to get a starting place in the team. There were a couple of flickers of brilliance from him in Division 3 at the start of 75/76, but he soon faded out of contention and left for Newport at the end of that season - what a waste of talent.

As for Colwill, some people think I'm mad for saying he was "superb" when he came on in my blog piece on Saturday's game, but it was the type of game that was made for him and as I was watching him go through his repertoire, all I could think was where was all of this when it really mattered?
