All the accusations are, at the moment, wothout substance and just someboy's supposition.

CrosbyKitchens Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) For anyone suggesting the unfit players are being held back so they can be sold at the end of the season, that makes no sense at all. Fernando's value has currently dropped by about 50%. Hooper's value has dropped by $1m. Winnall's value has probably dropped by 40%. Westwood, Fletcher, Hutch and, sadly, Lee are worth f*ck all due to age or injury records. The very idea of "asset stripping" is ludicrous when you only have 1 or 2 saleable assets. I suspect there are people around, but not in, the club who are spreading rumours. Edited March 8, 2018 by CrosbyKitchens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a new manager after every defeat and they would only want one that had previous playing links to the club. Would be free to get in and every player we signed would be guaranteed to be flippin brilliant in every single minute of every game they played AND would never get injured. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jos said today that he wasn't allowed to pick George Hirst for the first team Sam Hutchinson said today to fans at the U23's game that he's been fit for 3 or 4 weeks but isn't being picked There's two examples of things coming straight from a horses mouth Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Strafford started a thread yesterday about things he knew but wouldnt say, mention of Simon Jordan, all the injuries and contract speculation. Somethings happening. Interesting that, I heard Jordan on Talksport today saying that Us & weeds were attractive proposition for investor's as the return on investment if we returned to the Premier League would be huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirst is due to his contract situation, my guess is that the talks collapsed again. Hutchinson because he kept breaking down before after returning from injury before. So that is precautionary. He'll be back soon. If he was held back for contract reason he won't be playing for the kids surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't berate the club for that. You're relying on a player assessing his own fitness? Particularly Hutchinson?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can explain anything away mate Kieran Westwood - not played football for three months as he's injured according to the club - gets selected for the Republic Of Ireland today. I'd suggest that's beyond the realms of crazy but you could explain it as 'yeah but he's picked 4 keepers, it's a provisional squad, and he'll just drop him if he's injured still' Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, one of the other goalies plays for Bradford. That would suggest they're not exactly flush with options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, it will be weird if he plays for them and not us but we'll just have to wait and see. Edited March 8, 2018 by Woozie 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest that's beyond the realms of crazy but you could explain it as 'yeah but he's picked 4 keepers, it's a provisional squad, and he'll just drop him if he's injured still' You've explained that one well. Westwood is probably nearly fit. Obviously O'Neill and Keane want to see what Westwood van do to be their first choice for the future. Also, maybe his return to form hasn't been communicated to us because GK is the area we dont really need anyone to come back in yet? I expect Westwood to be back in the team soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
