He did have the op, all going well apparently, as the guys above said ... 3 or 4 weeks, but at least they confirmed the other day he is running again now and gaining fitness, but clearly "non contact" sport at present, until the shoulder settles down. So far so good !

Might be a stupid question, but how do they enforce it at all ... ok you yourself can't book the tickets, but if someone buys him a ticket and he turns up ... not all the stewards are going to have pictures of him to look at like a line up in the police station are they ?

Oh is that why at Barnsley there was no beer sales at 1/2 time ... wondered why !

Yeah, I don't disagree that he could be more of a super sub, but not a first 11 in my opinion, he did appear to be putting more effort in tonight and with it ... had more impact on the game than normal ... but he's not the answer, in my opinion, in the long term, free his salary up for someone...

My original post related to his displays thus far, they seem very indifferent, a little lazy, lacking in first or a second touch ... poor passing, there was no reason that I could see that you would play him ... not one, granted I've not seen every game, so I stand to be corrected if more have...

There's a reason you got 8/1 ... it's Barton ! :D 800/1 wouldn't have been impossible :claping hands:

Sign him up ... sign him up ... sign him up ... we so need to get him contracted for longer than the summer ... we would defo miss him next season ? Gotta to be worth throwing some of the Leon money at him ?

We wanted rid last week ... surely anyone would be a better option than him in midfield, even the underpar / on the bench Fleck ? Jordan Clarke / the new unfit kid .. Marshall ?

BARTON ... seriously ... we were trying to offload him last week ... now he gets a start ... crikey if I'd known we were that desperate I'd have cleaned my boots up, I'd couldn't be any worse ... playing with 10 men again I see !

No we are not favourites tonight, away from home, blooding some new players ... no one in the front end is proven, so we need to win, desperately and I think we have a chance too ... but will we, touch and go.

I like the sounds of him, positive kind of guy, he is greatful for another chance, looks very keen ... I'm hopeful once he has a bit of match fitness in him he could be a really great asset in the last 10 games of the season.

Gotta love 'em haven't ya ... it's almost like they went to a business college to learn best practices, customer commitment, marketing, finance, sales tactics and the importance of clear and cohesive communications and then chose actively to ignore every single bit of it and do a 180 ... just to...

Nice to have one striker at least that's fully fit and wants to play for us ... that list is an ever decreasing one ! :D

It is all very strange, clearly it's the kid that's decided, not either of the clubs, would love to know why he's backed out and equally, it seems to be that both clubs still wish him to play for Cov, as he is contracted to us till May so now he is in the devil and the deep blue sea, he can't...

Sadly, we all know it will be Clarke ... he's proven it already ... the new lad, has to get his shooting boots on first ... but will take time to get match fit and up to speed.

I'd say 10th at best ... we won't hit the playoffs this year, the 10 points simply have had too much of an impact, that plus the loss of Callum injured and Leon out the door.

Or just look outside now ... and form the answer for yourself ... NAH there won't be !

Quite ! Assuming the games on and that we are not choosing ends to play tomorrow ... namely the board end or the shallow one !

For most managers ... I can see where point 2 is coming from, but with him, I think Pressley genuinely and rather rarely in football, has morales and loyalty, so whilst it maywell have been his wish to buy, I think that the very fact he's brought people in, that he chose and was allowed too ...

Out of curiosity, why isn't it ? Surely they hold the purse strings, if they'd wished to reinvest, they could have negotiated with players on a list that I'm virtually certain that Pressley has to hand and brought at least one player in at cost ... not saying that they would have succeeded and...
