You may be onto something....
He’s one of the laziest player we’ve ever had. He’s been off it all season, and you may be into something.
If he keeps his current behaviour and attitude he’s a League 1 striker that all.

Yes. Baz!!Do you have a source? I don't recall at all.
Yes. Baz!!
Few of the main Turkish papers saying that Shota will be the new head coach and that he's just sorting his work permit and getting international clearance.
His record in Turkey appears to be pretty good so it'll be interesting to see how he does
All 15 games of it at Trabzonspor?

I'd say he was average. 72 wins out of 192 games in Turkey.All 15 games of it at Trabzonspor?
Dont understand why alcohol is not off limits for players. They make a fortune relative to the rest of the workforce, and their livelyhood depends on fitness. Alcohol and fitness do not go together. For many of us moderation is fine, one drink or a max of 2 but also for some of us 2 can lead to 3 and so on. Anyone know what the clubs policy is on alcohol. Or indeed what other cluibs policy is,Anyone else got a feeling that the 'unexpected departure' mentioned a short while ago is going to be Wilks? I just sense there's something going on, but could of course be way off track.
Something's been wrong with him for a couple of months or more.
Makes (imo, and if true) a really poor decision to go drinking in town at the time the Boxing Day match is announced as off.
Left out of the squad yesterday (I didn't catch the reason given, but if it was a knock or something then I'd take it with a pinch of salt, like has happened with others several times over the years).
As said, may be off track, but maybe not. If so, it's a shame as there's a real player in there, but something is clearly not right this season.
Alcohol is only a small part of the point!! Infact, I wasn't even thinking of that aspect.Dont understand why alcohol is not off limits for players.

Sorry, no link to hand. But it was definitely said, as others have confirmed. There wasn't any detail or clue just something about he understood there would be 1 exit that would likely come as a surprise to most of us. I took that as meaning it wasn't KLP or Greaves, as that wouldn't be a surprise given the common knowledge of interest in them. I was then thinking maybe Honeyman, Doc or Elder, but now my money is firmly on Wilks.Do you have a link? You so often ask for one and I have no memory of this and don't really want to go hunting through 20+ pages in here.
How do you know Wilkes was even drinking alcohol ? The place he was said to have been in on Princes Avenue on Boxing Day is hardly recognised as a drinking den or even a bar. The club have a strict policy on alcohol and diet. They employ their own chefs and dieticians. Perhaps Wilkes has something going on his private life ? Perhaps he is carrying an injury ? We don't know. He was our top scorer last season and deserves a bit more respect then he is currently getting by some on here.Dont understand why alcohol is not off limits for players.

I agree.
Tyler Smith, yet to score, misses a sitter gets nothing.
Mallik Wilks, scores a few, top scorer last season, absolutely berated for underperforming.
Better win average than Terry!I'd say he was average. 72 wins out of 192 games in Turkey.

And he’s cost you a tennerI see your point but wilks has been well below the standards he set himself last, and in his first season.
Yeah he has his limitations at the level, but doesn't look like he's interested this year.
Pre-season I'd have said keep at all costs.
Now I'd have no issue with him leaving.
He may have scored a couple - but whoever had played the minutes he has this season should have scored a couple.
If anything winds fans up its players not trying. That's what it looks like and in the absence of any other explanation, that's why he's kopping the flak at the moment.

My thought was whether he should have even been out as a likely close contact to upto 20 colleagues/ staff.How do you know Wilkes was even drinking alcohol ?
