Chuks (p.61 - Released)

I would say the way he played against Lincoln and the three subsequent games against the top sides showed his value.
In my view we would not have got the kick start to the season had he not made his cameos. Need to keep him but not rely on him for next season.7 -
I think, like 99% of us do, that chucks makes a huge difference to our team - its true, he does and part of that is because he is a level or 2 above but the other part of it is that we have no one else that can perform the vital role that he does - when Leaburn is fit, he has a go at it but for a big fella is poor in the air, and nowhere near as strong. Kanu is having a good go atm and is doing his bit to fill the void but its not really his game and the same can be said of Ladapo, although he doesn't really appear to be busting a gut. Chucks impact will not seem so great once we sign similar in the summer - at least 1. Dare i say it, but even if we still had Stockley, we would have been nowhere near the trouble we've been in.4

I love Chuks, he’s a tank, but he has more breakdowns than the RAC.2

Absolutely no room for sentiment re Chuks ..as popular as he might be we should work something out to terminate his contact and move on .3

Have you ever thought of being a doctor?
You can call his warm ups lazy, I would assume the club would have taken it up with him were they concerned that was the issue Doc

We've made some absolutely atrocious signings in the past decade but Chuks has genuinely been a key part in the difference between us hopefully scrapping our way away from danger this season and being sunk into L2 for the first time in our history. He's not been brilliant value for money but a player who stops us from slipping into that level of ignominy and helps rescue us from a historically bad managerial hire can never be considered one of our worst bits of transfer business.

Chucks is at an age when players start thinking about their post career prospects. I wonder if we can help him with the transition into coaching, support him get his badges, and use his experience to work with our forwards particularly kanu, Leaburn and Casey during his down time.2

Nobody doubts Chuks attitude, he's just not up to the job. I can't imagine many of us that would be happy to work alongside a colleague that is off sick 30+ weeks a year. I knew a woman that did that for over 20 years and has finally had her contract ended after 18 months off.
There can be many differing health reasons, and I don't judge on the at, it is more about how a service, department, team or group can function, when somebody is so unreliable.
Who wants to own a car the breaks down every few weeks? We'd all get rid, no matter how fond.
If the reality is that he'd need paying to the end of his contract, then keep all day long.
Chuks isn't Kirk. He tries and most importantly makes a difference as soon as he comes in, only in Chuks outings the difference is positive. Kirk we all know.

WestStandPete said:Maybe a sensible approach might have been a pay by match approach. Although on that basis Chuks would be turning up in a three wheel Reliant Robin instead of a top of the range jam jar. As his body ages he sure ain’t going to recover quicker so well done to the mastermind who decided a 3 year contract was a good idea with his track record. Unbelievable.0

I posted on another thread that I think we must try and get Chuks into next preseason still fit. A properly structured full preseason could give us some player next season. The poor bloke is always playing catchup with his colleagues and I’m sure is desperate to show what he’s got to offer. If he’s still feeling that niggle then leave him out until he’s properly ready.2

On the basis we don't lose any games he plays in, why don't we just wheel him onto the pitch and start him, then wheel him off again after 10 seconds? Job done. Promotion here we come.11

I wouldn't be surprised to see him retire after his contract ends with us.0

The issue I think is the club not being more transparent about his various injuries.When they are medium to long term just tell us.1
