MikeF Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Could be a sign that he won't be around next year so Joe is preparing for next season Wonder if Joe has a replacement on his way in on loan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 didnt he go off injured in the week, after having treatment on various occasions in the first half? From the tone of the text, suggests something more than an injury. Not too bothered, didn't look injured the other night just his usual running through treacle can't be arsed going through the motions type performance. Strange how Kabba came to life when Hughes went off and how we looked like we actually could be arsed. More to this than meets the eye I reckon. One thing for sure, no-one will take the piss out of Big Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lags Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Unless he's injured I find the decision to leave out our best shot at scoring a goal baffling to say the least. Or like us fans have the club accepted we ain't gonna get into the playoff's and go up?. As crazy and daft I know it is, whilst it's still mathematically possible that flame won't die within me.

razza699 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 OS says he wont be here next year as we cant afford him in other words he has turned the contract down that we offered him ! Thanks for the 18 goals Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekWilson_1968 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Now on OS - sounds like Hughes is going to be bit part at best for the remainder. Smalley and Kabba up top for Saturday? Perhaps BFJ is fed up of the Lee Hughes FC attitude? Derek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As crazy and daft I know it is, whilst it's still mathematically possible that flame won't die within me. according to the os, he is not injured, just no point sitting on the bench. now that is stupid, if injured fair enough, but he should at least be on the bench.

opinions4u Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Did the contract offer remain open after the transfer window? I think he'll struggle to match the amount over 2 seasons - he may have shot himself in the foot by not signing. Which would explain his omission.

johnny punkster Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 thats what was said on latics world aswell only time he was off the pitch was to tighten his studs on his boots. he didn't look injured and he didn't get treatment on the pitch.

johnny punkster Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 In light of this wouldn't be surprised to see him involved in a loan today. what i'm thinking.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Why the hell would we want to see more of Kabba? Planning ahead? he's out of contract at watford at end of season! Maybe joe thinks he's an option for next year if he stays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Exactly, the tone of a text. The commentry on LW at Cheltenham suggested that he was carrying a knock which is why I believe he's been left out of the squad. As for next season, I reckon the contract offer of a few months ago still stands, but can see him heading for a newly promoted Championship team next season and not us. Definitely good enough for that level still - he's got just short of 20 goals for us, and many of those he's made himself. I think the likes of Lewi and Smalley will be featuring more often, and if Joe's still in charge we'll have a big towering lump amongst them too.

oafcprozac Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 You must remember, Joe knows best! It's the right move, despite the odd goal here and there he's been disinterested for weeks, and Lewi apart has not forged any sort of partnership with anyone this season - despite having several quality partners, perhaps we are being harsh on the loanees, perhaps the problem was under our noses all the time? Anyone who was at Cheltenham cannot fail to have noticed how well we played once Lee left the field, it was like a breath of fresh air for the last half hour. Perhaps the rest of the squad are pissed off with him constantly throwing his arms up and his negative gesticulating at service where quite frankly if he moved his arse he could reach more often than not. Joe is sending out a message, if the effort is not there and youy don't really want to be here, then there's the door. As I said the other night, any Championship club would only sign him out of desperation - he will be back at BP next season with Huddersfield I reckon.

johnny punkster Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 reading statement from joe,he's given up on promotion and looking on to next season. kabba is available on a free,so wants to see how he does with smalley up front as a striking pair. unless theres another twist...2 hours 50 mins left.

ritchie82 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 This is bizarre. If he doesn't go today then he's basically been dropped for no real reason. The fact that he probably won't be here next year could be said for a fair few of that squad. As someone who pays to watch the team I want to see the best players availiable playing and Hughes is our best striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
