sirlawrenceofmadden Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 1 minute ago, Day before Thursday said: Been said that we don't know what has gone on behind the scenes but appears to be about money because he wasn't going to be starting games for Leicester and would most likely gone out on loan, which is the plan SWFC had for him. Had he signed a contract he would now be amongst those young players who have returned and been put into the first team squad. He would probably been at Rotherham who are doing well and would have provided him with ammunition in games to score goals and enhance his reputation, experience and value. Whatever the reasons he has been given bad advise by people close to him. It does seem odd that he has opted to miss a whole season - he will, by the end of his career, most likely be a multi-millionaire. All this does is harm his development. Bad advise indeed.

33 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 We shouldn't be throwing money at unproven potential that, if it came off, would send this club into orbit when we can guarantee improved returns by spending 6x as much on seasoned professionals like Buttercup who have the track record to get us out of this league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANbus_nz Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I would have thought a logical solution and comprimise to this whole sorry shenanigans would have been to include him in first team training. If he was knocking them in left,right and center, then including him on match day would have been less of a unknown for the manager. If he hadn't performed in the first team training then young George would have had a bit of a reality check. Especially Dad, whom I think is the main character in this mess. just saying.

Cos no-one knows if he's any good except at u18 level Agreed , in reality it's a massive step up from the kids to the first team no one knows if it would fall into place for George it's a big gamble tbh if the club is erring on the side of caution I can understand it tbh ,perhaps if he had just got on with it then he might be leading the charge for a first team spot , but then again it might be the opposite ,whichever side is causing the stalemate has to give an inch or two but the more it goes on then George could fade into obscurity here,and other teams where he could end up will possibly be having second thoughts ,it's a sorry mess for the kid but there you go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing i don't understand is whatever has happened (and i've no clue) it doesn't seem right that he's been frozen out, unless the people acting on his behalf have given the club no choice. Either way it's a mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnssweetshop Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 And I was hoping it would be something about Royalty. Reminds me about the young Man Utd " Junior " pranching round Turkey on his hols with his G/F wannabe wag latched onto his arm, and closely followed by a Man Utd " minder " to make sure noone said boo to a goose to the little lamb. Can't even remember the lads name, but he'd done nowt, and thought he was Gods gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why let one of the countries brightest young prospects go. Yeah it might stick in some peoples throats how the situation has been handled but ffs that's football. Come on both sides see sense please.
