I dont think he is. That injury was from a few years ago. I think you have misgoogled

i think you may be right, and he is in last year of contrcat but i think getting him permanently woudl be a step too far, who knows

[theowlsman]

As above, Westwood. One of the best keepers in the division.

 

I might not like TP’s favoured style of play, but I sure as hell like the cut of his jib.

[sonofbert2]

He’s coming home because they won’t give him a spot in the club car park.

I’d rather support a blunts side than a Wednesday side with McClean in it.

I guess people haven't actually listened to his reasons have they?

Why all the sudden interest in how many of our players are injured?

 

I thought it was only going to be fair to judge Monk on how well his team and his players would perform THIS season, as so many of the players that were unwilling to perform were obviously moving on because Chansiri is no longer willing, or able to pay such high wages for unfit, or underperforming players. Yet the Monk out faction never blinked when he was not allowed to bring in young hungry defenders and strikers, instead being given perennial injury problems like Izzy Brown, some bloke with a broken leg, another old injury prone defender, a leftover from Huddersfield's promotion charge when he had his best ever season and somebody who is fairly fit but is a converted right back described by Colin as not a very good defender and by everybody else as not a very good makeshift striker. There were six defenders and two CDMs missing at the same time while Monk was here, when we had a bad dip in results against Luton, Rotherham and Wycombe, yet nobody seemed to think that these first team/first choice players would make that much difference. Now that Pulis says 4, or 5 players missing will have an effect on the team everybody suddenly sits up and takes notice! Is Owlstalk now sponsored by Sycophants Are Us? 

“Must use paragraphs, must use paragraphs, must use paragraphs....feck it!”

 

I guess none of us know how much these were Monk signings or DC signings. I’d be gobsmacked if Monk didn’t have strong influence.

 

I thought buying cheap bits ‘n pieces players was a poor strategy. Buying fewer but higher quality/less injury-prone was a better strategy. Don’t care how good Brown is; if he only plays 15 games we could have spent it better. And I’m yet to be convinced he’s any good even in those 15 games!

 

Monk had more than a fair shot. Our record for ten months stinks. This season had relegation screaming from the rooftops. The timing was vital too - would you have given him the next run of games? Nine games in 29 days?

 

Its given the new man a week to see our squad and make some calls ahead of this vital period. 
 

It was the right and only thing to do.

[owls about that]

His contact

[WalthamOwl]

Thought we might have gone in for Rudy Gestede but he has just signed for Melbourne Victory. 

[Kopparberg]

Morgan Fox on loan.

Could see Pulis bringing in the likes of Shotton; Huddlestone, Musa, Gestede and Andre Gray or similar

 

Huddlestone, Gestede and Musa imagine that's 3 great signings.

Have I missed something? Or is it just the poppy thing? 

Seems way too harsh if so

[westy365owl]

Juninho Bacuna from Huddersfield deep lying playmaker, 23 years old can make a tackle has an eye for a pass and can get about the pitch will be in last 6 months of his contract come January 

[jp1981]

I'll go with Bolasie.

Well said. Double standards, often go unnoticed. 
I’m sure I’ve been guilty of it, but the Monk out squad hit new heights.

It would be naive to think the new manager will be bring unity to the fan base.

[ozzieowl]

Bolasie be good shout. We got nobody with much flair at min. 
Bannans turns about as good as it gets. 

[beloved_aunt]

Rudy Gestede. Currently out of contract. 
 

If Pulis doesn’t think Paterson is a striker he’ll need to find a new target man somewhere.
