Rhodes or Yates

[AllezBlackpool]

Discuss again. Rhodes for me.

 

[AngelBFC]

Unsure

 

[FY4MIKEH]

100 % Rhodes, a natural finisher
Yates was like Brett, tries his heart out but his finishing is a bit shit at times.

 

[TSSeasider]

Rhodes is a great finisher and scores regularly; Yates scores in patches.

I like Yates' defending from the front more.

But it's mostly about goals, so Rhodes

 

[LeeBFC]

Yates 100%, his work rate alone created goals. Rhodes can often be ineffective most of the 90 mins but he does score. Yates n Rhodes together then wow

 

[voyeur]

Yates. He got about 24 goals in this league a few years ago and would rip L1 up now. As well as all the other stuff he does. Both great though.

 

[Chunkylad]

Rhodes now or in his prime?

Now is probably fairer and mmm probably Rhodes but Jerry is more lovable

 

[WeMightScrapeADraw]

13 goals in 17 games. Rhodes all day long

 

[BFC4EVA]

Rhodes for me too

 

[BFCJonny]

No brainer. Rhodes. Still love Jerry though.

 

[TangerTonyGreen]

Both with an Ellis Simms or even our own Jake Beesley. I’ve always been very greedy.

 

[Tangerinemoss]

Not sure you can compare using Blackpool as an example. The style and forward movement now is so different to the service Jerry got last season. Din't he score 20 the season we went up?

 

[Pun_1]

Love Rhodes but Yates edges it for me based on his age.

Yates would have been on 10+ goals by now if he was still with us.

 

[Tangman74]

Yates along side Rhodes

Eh? Brett is probably one of our best ever players. I’d have a prime Brett in the side over anyone we’ve got now

 

[WeMightScrapeADraw]

Rhodes along side 11/12 Kev Phillips. That would be a scary duo. Takes the term veteran striker to a whole new level.

 

[Lewis_Winthorpe]

Rhodes by some distance

 

[JHNG]

Rhodes …. much more intelligent footballer and more natural finisher

 

[Wilburrabbit]

Rhodes every time. Proper striker with striker instincts. For all Jerry’s workrate he was never a natural goal scorer.

 

[Seasider3610]

Jerry scores the winner yesterday after coming on in the 58th minute.

Patino scores the opening goal

 

[Normanx]

Rhodes all day

 

[Ginge 2]

Both with an Ellis Simms or even our own Jake Beesley. I’ve always been very greedy.

What about KJ?

 

[The Catcher in the Rye]

Given the choice to play for us on loan for the rest of the season I would pick Rhodes as I think he’s the better player (just). Given the choice to own on a 2 or 3 year contract it would have to be Jerry Yates as his value to the club would be ££££££ more

 

[Chunkylad]

Rhodes along side 11/12 Kev Phillips. That would be a scary duo. Takes the term veteran striker to a whole new level.

Maybe it’s time for a veteran XI thread?

Chuck in Ian Marshall, Simmo, and of course Sir Stan

 

[BFC4EVA]

Jerry scores the winner yesterday after coming on in the 58th minute.

Patino scores the opening goal

But the other team were down to ten men from the 17th minute
