theowlsman Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 The young lad Penney may attract interest for example, and as a younger player, may command a decent fee without ever having really proven himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwood stepping up today at short notice, when having been alienated for 6 months, in my book is fairly professional. Of course, you may believe he brought the alienation on himself, which could suggest he's unprofessional. I'll stick to the fact that the one management constant in four years, asked him to step in within 12 hrs of being 'in-charge'. I believe he’s a poor trainer, for example.

Guest Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Can’t imagine many clubs been in market for a number 1 in January, Westwood won’t go anywhere as back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me he's genuinly happy to be back on the park. Agree, Incoming manager needs to insist on full squad review as condition of acceptance. Then slap a £200 million price tag on him. Now where have I heard that before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owly Mowly Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Didn’t it feel more comfortable with him in the goal. Just exudes authority and confidence - that must rub off on the defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 It suggests to me that he’s over the moon with playing and the welcome he revived from the fans it also seems to me ( based on reports ) this is a player coming towards the end of his contract and as of yet is future is unsure My final judgment would be he’s praising his team mates and wishing all a merry Christmas however who am I to speculate so in true owlstake fashion I’m going to say based on what he wrote westwood has a poor attitude and has been sleeping with Jos’s daughter who’s actually a Lithuanian postman. He’s been banished from the first team because at Fessi BBQ he ate chansiri’s goldfish and chansiri had that gold fish lined up to be managing director of D’s Taxis its obvious whem you read it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Am I the only one who thinks he should go at the end of the season anyway? I wouldn’t be fussed if he left in January if it helped with FFP. Dawson is capable. If Bruce can come in and sort the defence in front of the goalkeeper, I don’t think it will be an issue.

It depends. If he could do that then who knows but I don't think he'd be able to with limited resources. However, Bullen's comments to me suggest that he only played him to get crowd on side and he actually wants to play Dawson too. It wouldn't surprise me if he went Leeds in January (who are in the market for a new keeper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakefieldowl Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I think Steve Bruce will be keen to keep the best keeper in the division, so don't read too much into KW going anywhere yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I’m sure Bruce will do his utmost to keep him. I’ve been saying all week that the first thing a manager like Bruce would do is get players like Westwood, Sam etc back in the team and get them performing. Well done Bullen for doing it.

But I wonder if it might have been part of his non-appearances this season, so maybe it did actually cost us. Regardless I was more just suggesting that whilst talented, I’m not sure saying he’s the best professional is entirely accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
