What are people’s thoughts on us not getting Schwartz ? Mittyland ( I thought that was Reams club ?) only wanted £225,000 for him. Let’s hope finance wasn’t the issue...
The commentators made the point that although Aneke always looks good when he comes on as sub; he's nowhere near as good when he starts. Davison is out of favour for reasons unknown. He looked a good prospect in the Championship, so why not give him some time in L1 and see how he gets on. I don't always understand Bowyer's handling of our own products. Barker comes in, gets praised and then gets played out of position, Albie Morgan getting subbed at halftime and named and shamed by the manager because of one instance when he failed to track back which cost us a goal, Doughty getting shunted around in different positions in which he's been ineffective and Davison being ignored even when we're desperately short upfront. I suppose the answer is the Bowyer says he always goes by what he sees in training, whereas we go by what we've seen on matchdays. Very disappointing. Time is getting short.
Schwartz was offered a three year deal and had visited the Stadium and Training Ground last week, everything was agreed with his Club and a contract drawn up... yesterday morning he was going to sign then changed his mind, then in the evening he changed his mind again and went to sign contract just before 11pm but .... at the very last minute he changed his mind a second time... some talk that his family may have had an influence on this decision.
I hope we don’t get to the Wigan game in 11 days time with nothing more than a couple of loans....only to be told “it was difficult to do deals” and “we will try again in January”. That will be tantamount to writing this season off. The Club is acting very ponderously IMO.
I imagine the management team are like a duck- calm and serene on the surface but paddling furiously underneath.
I hope so because the only revenue they can earn in these present times is through streaming the games and if I can’t watch a competitive side playing half decent footy I won’t bother , even if it means getting on with the wife’s chore list !
I tend to agree with Appalling Rug. Sandgaard has spoken. Promotion is the target. There is a LOT of work to do in the next 9 days.
