OK, ignore all that. From the official site, his agent is now saying it's 50/50 that he'll sign. This has come from him originally saying 'once the loose ends are tied up, he'll sign'. SC says we can't offer him anymore and he's already stalled for a few weeks -can now see this not coming off.
The official site says we've got some 19 year old coming in as cover on match days and that there is an instant-recall clause for FDM. I don't reckon this is with a view to a permanent move - just to give him match practice. He didn't look his usual self last season when he'd been missing for a...
SC expects him to become an Albion player over the next week or so. Sir Steve is usually so cagey about stuff like this - if he says he expects him to sign - Andrei has probably signed a 4-year player/coach deal and is in the starting XI for Saturday.
Seriously though, am confident it'll happen...
To be fair though, we will be cutting the wage bill and also it'll be what FDM wants. Getting 1st team games under his belt will be good for him and us if and when he is needed. Calculated gamble I guess - hope it doesn't backfire.
Thought he did well on Monday. The Reading fans say he's pretty frustrating but then he can smack one in from 30 yards and all is forgiven. Will be good if he extends the loan. He has contributed in nearly every match he's played in (not Barnsley) and I still think him and Leon need a bit more...
Don't think McPhee was on long enough to make enough of an impact. Thought it was Henderson's best match so far and can see him and Leon forming a very good partnership.
Wouldn't be surprised if SC was on the shortlist of managers for the job. If they were looking to employ a Nationwide manager, Coppell must be rated at the very top along with Pardew, Hart and a couple of others. If I was on the West Ham board, I know who I would choose!!! Just hope SC would...
Hate to agree with Mullery who is incredibly bitter and twisted about this football club, but I thought Jones played pretty well yesterday. The one bit of skill in the second-half alone was brilliant. Of the two wide men, I would imagine OGH is more under threat at the moment (although Jonah is...
He'll be fine in this division and will score A LOT of goals for us. As dunno said, he had a quiet game today and was still close to scoring 2. Must sort out the diving etc though. I reckon he would have been very close to being sent off if SC hadn't hauled him off towards the end.
Was always in the right place at the right time and thought him and Hinshelwood were excellent at the back. Didn't see Hinshelwood at all last season but I've been really impressed by what I've seen so far in Div2. When DC, Watto, Blackwell all come back, will be a serious selection headache for SC.
