DJT Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Guidelines for this thread In this thread post match updates on all Canadians abroad for January 4-10, 2013. If you find updates posted in some other thread or on the other Voyageurs forum then post them here as well, but be sure to credit the original poster. If there is news that is particularly significant (eg. someone scores a big goal, someone gets injured, etc.) then feel free to begin a new thread on that topic in order to draw greater attention or start a discussion, but also post that news here. Some comments on news posted in this thread are okay, but let's not let this thread go off into a long discussion. If the news already appears in another thread (as per the previous bullet) then post your comments in that other thread, otherwise if you want to say something significant or if it is likely to generate replies then begin a new thread.

Max Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I'm not sure if this news should be here or maybe in MOACA. Anyway Patrick Majcher had been move from U21 (youth ekstraklasa) to the first team of Slask Wroclaw. http://www.90minut.pl/news/203/news2030318-Pieciu-mlodych-pilkarzy-bedzie-trenowac-ze-Slaskiem.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmonte Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Also in England League One - Iain Hume plays 90 for Doncaster Rovers in a 1-0 win over Colchester. FA Cup - David Edgar comes on at the 46th minute, they lose 1-0 to Barnsley. Keeping an eye out for Gyorio to crack the lineup at Fleetwood, he didn't make an appearance on the bench today as yet.

Sam Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Goal today from Sim was quality. Good first touch between two defenders then a quick toe tap to lift it over the keeper. http://www.101greatgoals.com/gvideos/simeon-jackson-norwich-2-0-v-peterborough/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what the future holds for Simeon. Might be preferable to see him lead the Championship in scoring to playing a bit role in the BPL, but I'm not sure, really.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nîmes Olympiques lost 2 to 3 to Lille in the Coupe de France. Al-Shaibani seems to have stayed on the bench. http://www.nimes-olympique.com/20130106987/Article/pas-loin-de-l-exploit-face-au-losc.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodgkiss Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Paging Hodgkiss, something tells me he'll disagree with you... simeon is a good player when he shows up - which is usually the last 3rd of every season. so... if the move him, his better football is ahead of him. if he stays on, we will more than likely see a late surge of 6-8 goals helping norwich to solidify a mid table spot. the truth is, he has been fairly successful at every level he has played conference all the way to bpl. i don't think many can argue otherwise. and in championship he should be able to push for a scoring title if he wants to play. he almost seems to me like he is a gifted kid who is bored in school and only doing the assignments he/she is interested in (particularly when there is a challenge). in any case, good luck to him.

villus Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Don't get me wrong I think he can contribute in the EPL and definitely in the Championship, but I don't think he has the consistency or if he received more attention the ability to score enough goals consistently to be the type of guy to be a top scorer in the Championship. Hes a good but not great goal poacher, isn't a target man and doesn't have enough other skills to take him to the next level other than his speed. If he develops a few more skills. I'd love to be wrong and see him tear up the EPL or lead the Championship in goals, tbh I wouldn't be that surprised since the guy has proven people wrong through hard work and dedication his whole career.

Not to mention he spent a lot of that time coming off the bench, too. If you break that down into goals per minute played, I bet Simeon would go much closer to the top in actual productivity.

I think his stats from Championship and lower divisions means little today where he stands now. He needs to score more in the Premier League. This is his record in the Premier League: 2011-12: 10 GS, 12 sub --> 3 goals, 2 assists; 2012-13: 4 GS, 5 sub --> 1 goal. That makes a total of 31 games played (17 as a sub), 4 goals and 2 assist. Not enough goals and not enough playing time, IMO. I consider he's still our best striker at club level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just the stats. And on top of that, don't see the need to compare Jackson with Evra, a left back, and Dempsey, who's not a striker. In any case, your stats are telling me that there are defenders capable to score more goals than Jackson. The problem with Jackson is sometimes he's not in the game. I mean, he starts the game but it's like he's not on the field. The game goes on and after 20 - 30 minutes you remember indeed, he started the match. I felt this when he played for the NMT and also a few times when I saw him play with Norwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertuzzi44 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 IMO Jackson is Premier League quality. In the games I've seen, he has always been effective in the limited minutes he gets, even if he isn't scoring. If Norwich are thinking of parting ways with Jackson and I was another lower table club, I'd get him for sure. Also, he's clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloth8 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Here are the highlights of Norwich's win over Peterborough in the FA Cup. Jackson's first touch almost gets away from him, but he does well to chip the keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
