Guest Ferkorf Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 1 minute ago, Mr Farrell said: We aren't in the past now. We are in present. Ridiculous to pay someone massive wages, who won't even fight for his shirt. No wonder the EFL is hammering us. Fair enough in the present. It seems Dawsons completely replaced him and as I think you may have mentioned earlier theres 2 decent players wages there possibly 3. It was just the complete failure bit I didnt agree with. Run his course I'd guess now and time to move on. I believe hes invested in a club now and spends a lot of time there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hougoumont Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Happens he's got a dose of the farmers and finds it uncomfortable sitting on the bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I guess we’re back to him being a ‘bad guy’ again then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Another poor financial decision to give him a two year deal in the summer. Yes he did well back end of last season, but how often do you see players upping their game as their contract is running out? Westwood has been super for us, but at his age and with a young keeper like Dawson at the club, a 2 year deal is just daft. We should have offered a 1 year deal, take it or leave it. It’s like when we offered Pudil and Nuhiu extensions the other year. We need to be more ruthless and stop being so sentimental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its slightly different with a keeper .. they can play up to their 40's ... but in this instance, given his injury record ... then yeah a 2 year doesn't make a great deal of financial sense. Its a strange issue with Westwood and his injuries. No one can fully confirm whether its due to being on the bench so we can only speculate ...

Lost the shirt on form, and instead of trying to win it back, takes the easier option. Pathetic. This !!!..................over the years we have become the "resting place"......."no-play..big pay"......."twilight zone " for early retirement cop-outs !!

I imagine Westwood is one of the higher earners in the squad. In that case a two year deal for a keeper at 35 is silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 The responses in this thread are typical of our last couple years, sentimental fans who hold an opinion of a player for what he did years ago. Westwood needs to be shown the door ASAP. His wages are astronomical and his attitude stinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteOwl91 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 3 minutes ago, FreshOwl said: Westwood, FF, Kieran Lee, Rhodes, Hutch etc, bye bye I've no issues with Hutchinson staying right now, generally injury free this season, gives 100% and would run through a brick wall. We also don't need him to play 46 now we have Luongo who can make the slot his own, which is beneficial all round. The others, i think the race is run.But again, unlikely Westwood will leave whilst under contract, i wouldnt if i was him at 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems he isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
