Can we do polls on this website?

Is a nonce?

A) A sexual offender of children
B) A sexual offender of any person any age

?

King during his time at Blues was far far better player than Chris Wood whilst he was playing for us.
Adams was better too.

King is a terrible person.

Nonce means pedo so definitely only applies to sexual offender of children.

Having said that, King is not a signing we would have made in this day and age. Looking back we probably shouldn’t have signed him.
Not true.

Surprised at the amount of people putting Laird at right back.

He's not even the best right back in the team at the moment.

Much better than BOS imo

I think he's at least the best we have had since Carr - for me the debate for RB is Laird vs 2011 Carr.

Was thinking about how many of the current crop make it into a ‘best 11’ of all the players we’ve had since we went down in 2011. Based solely on performances/contribution over that period, however you interpret that. Really asking how much value do you put in the higher quality of football over the last 18 months, compared to the shift certain individuals put in over the extended period of stagnation.

Something like this? Feel bad leaving Juke out, but it is what it is.

Allsop

Colin - Klarer - Morrison - Cochrane

Burke - Iwata - Jude - Maghoma

Stanno - Adams


9 man bench: Randolph, Caddis, Bielik, James, Paik, Bacuna, Gray, Donaldson, Juke

Most of this current squad have more ability than 99% of the players we’ve had since 2012, but I think you need to factor in the work players like Maghoma and Colin did just to keep us ticking over.

A lot of recency Bias..

Carr at RB
David Murphy or Grounds at LB.

Surely Butland or Myhill over Allsop

King would be in over Stanno. You can't leave King out, did you forget him?

David Cotterill should be in there somewhere

I am noture Iwata and Cochrane should even be in the squad tbh

I think our 11/12 squad would tear all our sides since to pieces

Back two probably Shotton and Davies, Shotton would be perfect for the way we want to play. As a fall back Morrison and Davies. Morrison is a bit of a throwback though. We technical started the season with Ridgewell, so you could technically get Ridgewell in but that feels like cheating

bluer than blues
Nonce is surely age-related rather than abuse-related?
No it’s not. It started to be used in prison slang for any sex offender.
Not linked obviously but I always remember BA saying nonces are any sex offender.
Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise is how it originated I think

Pretty sure that initialism is an urban myth

It is a completely meaningless term due to it being misunderstood, misapplied and too broad.

King was a bad dude at times in his life, he paid for it. I struggle to see the need to stigmatise continuously.
