Sergeant Tibbs Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 1 hour ago, Flat Owl said: He's a Welsh lad, so makes sense. He will be a great signing for them. Good luck Ash Baker. Looked a proper full back on his debut against Norwich, maybe the opposition was poor. Clearly had his limitations going forward and good to see us reducing the wage bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 He'll be 24 this year and he's only ever played 13 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he does move up the leagues; all the best to him. He was thrown in at the deep end by Jos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 At an age where he should be playing was never going to breakthrough here so it’s a good move for everyone hope he does well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwellOwl Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 All the best Baker. Good to see the club is finally starting to trim the squad. Could do with a high earner off the books now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmigo Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Grafted when called upon , was in team in a difficult period under Jos. Didn’t look like he quite had the pace or the power to be a really good championship player. With some hard work he should go on and have a decent career in the leagues though.

areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Good luck to him. I thought he looked really promising in his first few games, but it can't have been easy making his way in the Championship in a team which was struggling for form and lacking in leadership, and in time his own game tailed off as well. A step down might be just what he needs to kickstart his career again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indicative of so called "football development" these days ... Let's hope this is a corner turned for the club and we have stopped faffing about ..... Good luck to him hope he has success in the game .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Quote An experienced player, Baker made 12 appearances in all competitions, 11 in the EFL Championship, for the Owls the last season. I'd hate to think what the Newport website classes as an inexperienced player... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always put a shift in and was nice to actually see a full back sprint back....unlike palmer! Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I’d like to see a bit more of this, bringing in players released by other clubs, and placing them in the development group. Yes it hasn’t worked out for Ash, or Jordan Thorniley, but they’ve both gone to another league club, and we get a small fee. The same happened with Sean Clare. Now we’ve seen another such youngster break through, Urhoghide, so now he gets a chance to stake a claim. Hopefully he will make it, but if he doesn’t, hey we can sell him on. It’s the way forward I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theowlsman Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) If Mr C has so far refused to disclose the fee, he can tell the EFL we got £8million for him right? We just bung Newport an extra £50k to stay schtum. By the time the EFL find out, we’ll be in the Premier League Edited January 13, 2020 by theowlsman 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
