Whing on loan to Chesterfield.

[Djmiles]

Andrew Whing has joined Chesterfield on loan for the rest of the season.

The tough-tackling full-back will link up with the promotion-chasing League Two side tomorrow ahead of their match at Cheltenham.

Last year's player of the season, Whing has fallen down the pecking order at right-back following the arrival of Inigo Calderon and Gavin Hoyte.

He has made just four appearances since Gus Poyet's arrival, and the Albion boss says it is important now for the 25-year-old to get regular football between now and the end of the season.

Poyet said, "It's a similar situation to James Tunnicliffe, who is at MK Dons. Andrew has been out of our squad for a while now and he needs to play football games.

"It's important for him to stay in shape because he's one of our players under contract. I hope he enjoys it at Chesterfield, and we will keep an eye on his progress."

Good move for him , back to the Midlands. Will give the Walsall scout an opportunity to suss him out.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

They have kindly offered to pack, ship all of his belongings and have supplied their own branded packaging.

Good move for him to get some games. I would imagine that we will not be seeing him in the stripes for much longer (unless Chesterfield play in stripes).

Good move for him , back to the Midlands..

Not really. Just South of Sheffield.

Good move for him and happy to see him go and play football somewhere.

 

[HG201]

Thats very strange seeing as i saw him training this morning!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

He is rather fat for a pro isnt he?

 

[BensGrandad]

Good that he is going to get some games and also that it is not with us.

 

[jordanseagull]

Good move for him.

 

[BensGrandad]

Good move for him.

And us!!

 

[The Wizard]

He is rather fat for a pro isnt he?

You have to be kidding me?

 

[jordanseagull]

And us!!

Have to agree, just had a blinder last season! Cannot fault his attitude, though.

Bet he wishes he made that summer move now! Wasn't he linked with Leeds?

 

[BensGrandad]

One of the problems is the lack of reserve games for players to regain their position. In thue' good old days' the reserves played in the combination league at The Goldstone on the Saturdays that the first team was away. I remember seeing us play Spurs and every Spurs player was a full international.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

You have to be kidding me?

Er no.

 

[The Wizard]

Er no.

Have you ever seen him in real life? he's far from fat.

Looked quite overweight at Torquay, Plus my coventry Season ticket holder friend says the same.

He's not fat, just big boned.

Antway, good luck Andy, and I do mean that, love your attitude but not your hoofy style.

Whing was my hero.
