Big Jack Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I have heard the same over the years from Owls fans regards Tommy Craig, Peter Eustace and even John Sheridan. Some people don't seem to like creative midfield players, its weird, i have never understood it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Borbon Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Nobody wanted Bannan he arrived to us on a freebie. He’s just sent out a huge come and get me plea and still nobody wanted him. Yet our oh so knowledgeable fans put him on a pedestal. A very expensive third division pedestal at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not one single person has 'put him on a pedestal' So you're wrong about Bannan AND wrong about that too 3 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadBoy1762 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Best thing since sliced bread fact! Watched almost every game last year through ifollow him and a few other pulled us through to the last game of the season! Remember on more than one occasion after games I thought to myself if we didn't have Bannan we'd be f@@ked! So much dead wood last year, on so much money! It's a breath of fresh air to see these new kids coming in, just don't give them stick! let's get behind them and DM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would have said McGeady was last season and we had him and he couldn’t get a game. The people saying nobody wants him just aren’t for real. When he came here, it was undisclosed wasn’t it not free.. and he was dropping down from the Prem. At the time we would have been one of the most attractive proportions in the Championship.. new manager and owner, big money, lots of signings.. easy to see why he’d come here over most of the other sides. And yeah he did that interview during the euros where he sounded a bit flat and was going to speak to the club. But that’s exactly how we all felt too at that time as it was before Chansiri found his wallet and we brought in new players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid around £3million for him. At the time most people were kind of shrugging their shoulders at the signing as they didn't see where he fit in alongside the likes of Lee, Lopez and McGugan.

FreshOwl Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I did question whether everything should go through him in the past, but he’s the man for sure. The fact he’s stayed & Moore sings his importance in the new players signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
