  • Wasnt it @Dazzler21 who said he did something naughty when driving recently? - Wonder if the club know about it and weren't impressed

    Something isn’t right, I asked the question on twitter and someone said he is fit and he liked it so I am assuming he has been left out for a reason 
    Got a horrible feeling we've discussed selling him on to free up a space in the squad, but that's not based on anything itk
  • He'll be out the door, probably already was judging by the tweets but Bowyer won't take kindly to complaints about the club on social media.

    We shouldn't need to do that if/when TS takes over and the embargo is lifted. Maybe Bowyer sees him going out on loan though, his loan last season didn't work out, not in terms of getting regular games anyway.

    No we shouldn't, but as that's still up in the air they must've been planning for the worst case scenario which likely involves moving him on permanently 
  • I liked him and think he has all the attributes to make a great midfielder. It will be a shame if we lose him if it is down to money.
  • Deception? 
    Inferring he feels led up the garden path by the club?

    Several times.

    Doubt it's that though.

    If he hasn't already done so, he should get off social media and knock on Bowyer's door.
  • Not convinced that his twitter words were anything g to do with us. In saying that, not particular impressed by what he says and retweets on twitter.

  • Googled him, most recent I could see (not good with computers).

    That was last season. Sept 2019.

    What’s wrong with the stuff he tweets?

    Thanks. Like I said, I'm a luddite regards computers and technology. 
    Was looking to see if there was anything regarding Him other than football, but nothing about driving offences or other misdemeanours. 
    Sorry. 
  • I said a few weeks ago that Brendan did is MCL and is out for at least 10 weeks. He has a brace on his leg.

    That is a shame for the lad, wishing him a speedy recovery.
  • interesting that the "deception" tweet is his pinned one, something still rankles
  • Fingers crossed he recovers well and gets back on track.

  • Didn't he drop the Sarpong part a long time ago too?

    But thats the best bit!.
  • Alan Nixon (so massive pinch of salt) has a story on us, saw elsewhere that it’s that us and Huddersfield are interested in signing Wiredu and watched by both clubs last week.

    Fits the NJ profile of being big and powerful, and he can play CB and CM so offers versatility. Played WB when he was in our academy and the fringes of the first team too.

    He is a class player and well capable of stepping up a division. I'd be really happy if we could get him in
    Agree.

    Left on bad terms due to poor treatment by a coach no longer with us so may not want to return, assuming what Nixon says has any truth to it, which is a big if.

    Was he in the youth set up when Jones was there?
  • I remember him pretty clearly coming through. One of those hard to ignore players, good power pace and skill, but one that seemed to play in his own lane autonomously with signs of moodiness and belligerence but often very effective.
    That is a number of years ago now, and I suspect the reality of making his way as a professional footballer has modified his approach to the game in the intervening years.

    He would have only been about 13 at the time, he’s still only 25 and Jones was here in 2012/13.

    Yep, miles apart.  Wishful thinking on my part.
  • I found it astounding that when he left Colchester we weren’t in for him and I again found it astounding when we didn’t try to get him last summer, as has been said he fits an NJ profile perfectly.
