Kew Owl Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 10 hours ago, DJMortimer said: This is unquestionably a good deed and deserving of a little credit. But I fail to see how it either confirms or denies anything about Westwood's conduct as a professional footballer over the last couple of years. You’re right - of course it doesn’t, but I don’t see anything to suggest the OP was intending it to be interpreted as such. For what it’s worth, I think it’s a fine gesture from the player, for which he deserves credit, irrespective of people’s views on him on other issues 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, it was just highlighting a positive news story with no particular subtext. The same cannot be said for several that followed it however. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I don’t care about the players all being great lads. I want good players and a proper manager who can handle them. I imagine there were difficult times with Hirst, Palmer, Sheridan etc but then we had Big Ron now we have Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wilyfox Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Westwood sending kid a shirt = Nice bloke, should be in the team. Fans make bizarre connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No player has sent as many shirts and boots out as Jordan Rhodes has over the last few seasons So if it applies to Westwood it should apply to Jordan Rhodes too 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, at the moment Rhodes is the only player at the club in his position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickswfc Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 The constant "move on FFS" attitude winds me up We've a team which hugely underperformed in the second half of the season, partly of which was down to poor performances from Dawson and towards the end Wildsmith. Meanwhile we've one of the best championship keepers of the last few seasons out the team, for reasons unknown. But we shouldn't demand to know why 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice gesture though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another peace of smart practice by us. Who knows the reality of the situation but which ever way it pans out it isn't good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
