Players progress vat different times. I like Stobbs but just can't see him making it here. Never stood out fir the U23s when I've seen them.

SallyCinnamon Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Hopefully Penney can do well in Germany and come back here ready for next season. We need a new left back, rather than spending money on one, we might already have one right under our nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnishOwl Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Definitely a warm welcome back to Penney, and hopefully he can recommend a German monster of a striker or two when he gets back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never stood out fir the U23s when I've seen them. I just think time is running out for him He's 23 next February but has only made four senior league starts in total That's two for us (both under Jos), one for Port Vale and one the other week for Livingston He needs to see some serious action up there for the sake of his career Otherwise, he'll see this season out in our U23s and be lucky to find another club when his contract expires Edited October 7, 2019 by Ethel The Tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Runner Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Is Penney out of contract in the summer? Can he be recalled in January? He needs an extension because if he is out of contract then he may just be staying in Germany full time with a pre contract agreement in January.

Ethel The Tree Posted October 7, 2019 Author Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) 7th October VfL Osnabruck 0-1 Arminia Bielefeld (att: 15,800) Joost van Aken's side needed to halt a slide of winless games against Julian Borner's old mates They didn't manage it. They went behind around the hour mark and Joost himself was subbed off after 75mins According to uk.soccerway, Bielefeld scored a second on 90mins and it was only after full time that someone decided it had been disallowed Anyhow, this league is almost as crazy as the Championship If VfL had won tonight they'd have moved up to 5th, ahead of St Pauli As it is they stay in 13th, 2pts above the drop zone while Bielefeld remain well-placed in 3rd And Wehen Wiesbaden, remember them? The division's punchbag (until last week when VfL handed them their first win of the season)? Well they visited 2nd placed Stuttgart on Friday night and won 2-1 in front of 49,627 What's the German for 'Lump on'? * klumpen auf Edited October 7, 2019 by Ethel The Tree 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will then depend on where he wants to be playing his football next year. Can we swap him with Fox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to keep a rein on the asides though, in case an over-zealous mod drags the whole thread kickin 'n screamin down to the non SWFC section Yes, you know who you are I had to edit the post about SV Wehen for that reason - and then regretted it But sod it Did you know .... SV Wehen were actually disbanded by the Nazi Party in the early 30s? It's true, apparently I don't know if that's a rare distinction, or not But at least we now know where SAG get their inspiration from 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now though I think he's shown, he's not quite physically ready for the championship. I know few on here rate him and fox may be no world beater, but is solid enough when just expected to defend with the odd forays forward in support of his winger. Would love to see penney come back and next season, establish himself and become our new left sided "Mel Sterland" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
