Ex-Player Thread Ben Nelson

[Carpy]

 

[Emilio]

You can only fit 3 player’s signatures onto a Brannagan match worn shirt.

How many on a Liam Kelly?

That's assuming it can be seen.

 

[Foley]

Didn’t you call someone that you don’t even know, a c**t the other day?

Can you list all the things you find offensive so we can make sure we don’t upset you in future please.

Tend to agree.
Bizarre double standards

 

[Mad Dog]

The big guy's shirt is better for signing by players with large handwriting?

You monster!
I don't think it's appropriate to shame players for having large handwriting do you?

They have feelings you know?!?

It's not really double standards when they are 2 separate issues. c**t is a general insult, not personal.

Commenting on a player's shirt size is personal and a bit weird to be honest.

You think calling someone a c**t is less offensive than commenting on their shirt size?!?

 

[Scotchegg]

I'm confused. If someone calls me a fat c*** can I be offended or do the two cancel each other out?!

It's all perspective really. Tiendalli was a useless player that had his limitations that we're all aware of, but an ex manager that threw in the towel this season and chucked games away to get himself sacked so that he could sit on podcasts saying he could have kept us up and then run along to sky sports for an easy paycheck deserves the c**t title.

Would you rather be called fat, but not a c—-, or a c—-, but not fat?

I'd just be unimpressed at the lack of originality of the insult. A good insult can be appreciated.

I identify as both to be fair!

 

[TailsWeWin]

I identify as both to be fair!

Too much information.

 

[Emilio]

I 100% identify as someone who is both too skinny (arms and legs) and too fat (stomach), as well as being equally a lovely guy and a bit of a prick. I'm also not up to League One standard, but at least my autograph is quite neat.

I am simultaneously proud of and offended by myself.

Am I allowed to join Tiendalli, Rowett, and Paul Powell at the table of people YF posters argue over?

You think you are relevant enough to argue about?

 

[Emilio]

You think you are relevant enough to argue about?

Precisely the kind of the thing that places me in the "bit of a prick" category.

 

[Mad Dog]

I used to be taken the p**s out of for being a "skinny fucker"
I have also been taken the p**s out of for being a "fat fucker"
And I've always been considered a "bit of a c**t"

And you know what?

I'm absolutely fine!

Sounds you find some things offensive but not others. Just like everyone else. But you expect others to not say things that make you feel offended.

 

[Isle of Wight Yellow]

I mean, it was a throw-away comment during a five-minute break from watching Project Hail Mary as it tickled me that the signing shirt being held up looked comically large.

It wasn’t specially related to Tiendalli himself but, if he’s in any way offended, I offer my heart-felt apologies and a new three year contract.

I think the only way to settle this is for MJB to post a picture of himself and we can all point out his physical flaws.

You come across as a bit of a c**t on this thread. Obviously you won't take offence to me saying this.

 

[Jon-ioualways]

So, can we get back to Ben Nelson in a while?

 

[Emilio]

Well he won't be getting back to us at all.

 

[Northstandboy]

Could be off to Torino.

 

[unification]

Could be off to Torino.

On holiday?

I’d prefer the Amalfi coast but each to their own.

 

[Paul Cannell]

On holiday?

I’d prefer the Amalfi coast but each to their own.

In summer?

 

[Royalstandard74]

Would love him to come back home with the people who love him.

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

Rumours are he's told Leicester he wants out with MU and West ham looking.

Best of luck to him

Tbf, as we aren't an option at the moment he'll have to do with 2nd rate alternatives.

 

[East Stand Fan]

He looked a shadow of his former self after returning to Leicester. He probably needs a fresh start and deserves to be playing in the Championship.

Ben Nelson has ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and will miss the majority of the 2026/27 season.

Nelson suffered the injury in the first half of City's pre-season defeat to Genoa last week and was helped off the pitch by members of staff.

After that serious ankle injury last season too. He can't catch a break.
