June 2025 (haven't seen any mention of a club option but it can't be ruled out).
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

Thanks.
I wonder if both parties will allow the contract to run its course? Although the club often don’t allow that to happen, a new contract to generate a fee on parting company.
In the home program after we beat Spurs 1-0 at WHL there was an interview with Veltman...he spoke about how they approached defending against Son...as he is so fast and faster than any Albion defender. It was enlightening and intelligent but crucially it worked. I have never heard a defender talk like this before, or since. This sealed my man-love for him.

Have you got the interview on hand? Would be interested in reading it.
I’ll see if I can find the program. We’ve moved since the game so my programs are in a box somewhere snd not freely accessible.

Is this it? (In the programme against Man Utd on May 7 2022).
Yes. This is it. Thank you. It's not often we see such acknowledgment of the way an opponent plays and also how to deal with them. I guess it's not really rocket science but given he has got the better of a number of players like Son and Grealish it's clear how smart (and also professional) he is.
Intelligent players like him and, say Gross, are an absolute joy to watch live. I say live as a lot of their work gets missed by tv camaras following the ball.

Final day of the season, @dwayne only saved by Hinshelwood's injury from losing this bet within a season
Excellent thanks for reminding me.
Can’t really fault the manager today obviously as we won 3-0. But I would have liked to of seen Barco come on for Milner and Hinsh get a go in the middle
Barco got plenty of minutes in pre-season.
I think he was being protected from a hammering by the likes of Calvin-Lewin and Doucouré but I think he’ll be back, probably next week. Twitter rumours of a slight injury, knock or illness can’t be ruled out either.
Calling Barco an Argentinian international is a bit like calling Zaha a England player

Jack never stopped chasing and whilst LB is not his position, he did ok and better than that when he had more space after the sending off.
Think it was probably wise not to play Barco against the Hoofers/ Everton.
Another thing when we play Manure.

He worked hard today and it was great to see him back, but yeah, he is not a LB option.
Jack didn’t win a single duel at LB. If today was a show of faith, he blew his chance. Looked good going forward with Kaoru but defensively we were worse off than having nobody playing there, at least then Dunky would’ve covered.
More likely, Twitter is right and Barco had a knock, in which case I’m still glad we went with Jack over Milner slotting in there. Milly had one of his better games for us I thought, so I’m glad he wasn’t pushed to makeshift fullback

He's not a left back and he was playing against a decent winger and was exposed a very difficult task IMO and if that was a test then it's not particularly fair.
